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.

GREAT DOCTOR!
He goes above and beyond and is extremely thorough. He truly cares about his patients.

HORRIBLE BEDSIDE MANNER-
I came for help with a knee that has given me chronic pain for 14 years. “Laudi” or more appropriately LOUD-Y talked over me, suggested a surgery that would address less than a third of the problems identified with MRI, and refused to answer my questions until he was done with his sales pitch. When I asked him if anything could be done for my pain now, while I consider surgery, he ROLLED HIS EYES AT ME and responded, “Like what?” I was stuAt this point, I decided the visit was over, but before we couldout of the room, Laudicina pulled my daughter aside and told her, “when she calms down, you know where to find me”.The arroganceThe audacity This is a person who is so full of himself that there’s no room left for is human compassion. Do not let him cut you open!!!

Dr LAUDICINA helped me with shoulder issues. I have been under his care for a number of years. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great, caring doctor. He takes time to talk to you, get your views and explain everything about what is going on with your case. He is an excellent doctor.

Dr. Laudicina reconstructed my heel 15 years ago in St. Augustine, FL. He recently popped into my brain, and I was wondering where he was now. Now that I found him and can leave a review, it is important to me that I share what an AMAZING doctor he was (is). During my ordeal, which was quite traumatic, Dr. Laudicina was caring, accommodating, and most of all thorough. I remember specific things, like Dr. Laucinia coming to check on me in the parking lot so that I didn't have to use my crutches to come inside to his office. It was also very important to Dr. Laudicina that my pain level was managed. He made sure I was able to fill needed prescriptions promptly. Shattering a heel is very painful so it was a Godsend to have a doctor who cared about managing my pain. It has been 15 years since my heel surgery, and over this time I have run miles on the beach, competed in 10ks and even recently at a Spartan race. He is truly a remarkable physician. Thank You Dr. Laudicina

I've been toDr. Laudi four times since 2003 and he has been the only orthopedic Doc I've been to that aspirated my knees as they should be treated. Others, including rhuematologist, have tried , and mostly failed to get all the fluid out. Trust him completely for my knee care and potentially any other orthopedic issue.

Dr. Laudicina has been the most compassionate & caring surgeon I have ever had. In my lifetime, I've undergone more than the average number of surgeries for various illnesses. Every other surgeon has been competent & knowledgable, however usually aloof & distant. Dr Laudicina has been not only extremely competent, knowledgable & brilliant, he has been personally aware of me as a person. His approach is holistic & caring. He explains procedures & answers questions throughly.
