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.

Very experienced doctor, no-nonsense reasonable explanation of what's wrong, quick, competent decision on what to do , with all options well explained. Helped me avoid cancelling vacation due to sports injury. Very highly recommend!

Dr. Stamelos is a very kind, knowledgeable and competent orthopedic surgeon! In the past he has performed emergency surgery on both of my husband's feet, performed my knee surgery, and took care of my son's broken foot.
