Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I cannot believe this Dr. is still practicing. He was rude, extremely callous and had no proactive suggestions for what to do next. Now I know why people end up addicted to pain medication. He never followed thru with what he said he was going to do. He couldn't even operate the computer to have the prescriptions written. Do us all a favor Dr. and retire and enjoy your life. I went home in tears and embarrassment. The front office could care less as well! GO ELSEWHERE!

If you like being treated like an actual human being, DO NOT see this doctor. I've been in severe knee pain since February, so this visit is something I've been waiting for. I've never been treated worse, he didn't spend 3 minutes in the room, barely examined me, then laughed at me when I winced in pain saying that I should be just fine. Didn't explain anything to me, or acted like he cared at all. Worst experience ever, please PLEASE do not go see this doctor whatever you do.

Dr. Coville treated me like garbage. In the 5-minute he was willing to spend with me, Dr. Coville didn't explain my MRI (he may not have even looked at it), briefly looked at my knee, and said "there's nothing I can do for you". I asked a couple specific questions about my MRI results and how to deal with pain I was experiencing and instead of addressing my concerns, he said "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do for you" and left. I wasn't even sure if my appointment was over. Terrible doctor.

Terrible and unethical as well as providing misinformation controversial of steroid bad reactions that have to do with diagnosis of arthritis then offering prednisone shot? He threw my dads paperwork out, and refused medicine in alternative for shot Plus he was severely rude. I'm praying others prevent wasting there time with an unethical, lack of compassion or even help ! Dr faro is the only good doctor at orthopedic physicians. I have him recorded if you need his true colors proof.

He was rude very short never looked at my mri film then told me there was nothing he could do and went to walk out never offered to help with physical therapy a hip injection nothing I work in the medical field with orthopedic doctors I am aware of the things needed to help resolve the problem.

It took months to get in because they misplaced my paperwork after receiving my referral. They called me three times to schedule an appointment after I'd already been scheduled. Dr. Coville was dismissive, rude, and interrupted me when I tried to talk. He snickered at the fact I'd even received an MRI, saying I shouldn't have had one. When showing me my MRI, he was looking at the wrong side of my ankle, which his assistant pointed out to him. Appointment lasted 3 or so minutes.
