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 think he is the best.
How cares about his patients. I like way he explained what need to be done. He made sure what to have surgery.

results were nothing less than I was hoping for!
After my initial visit in which Dr. Field had done a preliminary examination ,he explained exactly and precisely what I had done as far as damage to my right shoulder. The diagnostic scan showed the extent of damage and Dr. Field assured me that the damage could be repaired. Almost four months out from surgery finds me pain free and regaining my strength. My range of motion is back to normal and I am on pace to be 100% at least by the end of summer!I can highly recommend Dr. Field for any shoulder issues you might have and I will not hesitate to seek his expertise if I have need in the future!Thank you Dr. Field!!

Dr. Field is the best shoulder doctor hands down.
I just have trust in Dr. Field. He did surgery on my right shoulder 17 or 18 years ago. I did so well with it that when I started having trouble with the left shoulder I wouldn’t trust anyone else to check it.

Dismissive, nonchalant, and belittling.
Another provider referred me to him stating that he’d be able help relieve the pain in my shoulder caused by a cyst. His response was that the referring provider didn’t know what she was talking about, there was nothing for him to do, the popping in my shoulder was normal, and the cyst was fine. He jabbed a needle with medication for pain and I was dismissed from the clinic in more pain than I came in with.

Awesome
Dr. Field listened to my concerns with my shoulder. He presented options and the implications for those options. His exam was thorough, professional and friendly. I would recommend him to anyone seeking treatment in his area of expertise. In my case I will continue to see him for my shoulder. It should be mentioned that all members of the staff from reception to technicians to nursing staff to Fellow were top notch and deserve mention.

He doesn’t care about his patience
Basically he did not care. Did not want to get a second opinion that he was the man he runs the show and didn’t care what happened to me from here on out after the shoulder surgery, I’m In more pain now than the first!

Dr Fields was very forthcoming and paitent. He doubled his perusal of my films before providing a treatment plan. He was very gentle with the shots and I really appreciated that. so many times you get a shot and its like their hitting you with a hammer. he asked me for questions and he answered all of them completly. I hate that the news wasn't really wanted to hear but it is what it is. I would recommend him to all of my friends
