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.

Tore my ACL unfortunately. Dr Fitzgerald eased my nerves and explained to me the procedure and left me with feeling at ease and confident that I choose the right doctor for me. His entire staff is very helpful and quick to call back if you do have leave a message or email.

Dr. Fitzgerald is excellent and I highly recommend
Dr. Fitzgerald replaced my ACL and it was the first surgery I had at almost 60 years old. He did an amazing job and with physical therapy I am ready to hit the slopes again. If I have any other injuries requiring this type of surgery, I will definitely go back to Dr. Fitzgerald.

Informative and kind
Dr. Fitzgerald took the time to explain to me in detail what was going on with my shoulder and what the next steps are. Even in giving me a steroid injection to alleviate inflammation, he explained every step that he was doing from the numbing spray to the pinch of the needle. Superb provider! While I don’t recommend having an injury, if you have to be seen for one he’s the guy!

Excellent Orthopedic Surgeon
Had my 4 month review with Dr Fitzgerald, and he was very happy to see how well I am doing after Reverse Shoulder Replacement surgery. Recommended to continue with home exercise program to strengthen the shoulder.

He was very informative and caring
The issue for me was the front office staff! I arrived 15 minutes early and wound up waiting for an hour! I asked several times what was the delay and got no answer. This kind of treatment is why people leave providers.

Shoulder moving again
All of my pre and post op visits have been met with friendly staff and expert care. I had a bone spur at the AC joint that needed to be shaved as well as frozen shoulder. Both were addressed with surgery and physical therapy. 2 months post op and I am feeling so much better and have better range of motion.

Dr. Fitzgerald performed rotator cuff tear and bicep tear on both of my arms and shoulders. I am a professional drummer in my mid 60's and thought I was done performing. I am back to playing full time with no pain or restrictions and loving it! Dr. Fitzgerald is very professional and personable in all aspects during my procedures and all of my follow up appointments. I did all of my physical therapy with his team at his location and found them to be very professional and fun to work with during my rehabilitation. His office staff is very professional and personable and also gave me wonderful support and service. I am very grateful that I chose Dr. Fitzgerald and his team for my procedures and would highly recommend them! Thank you all for your wonderfulness! ROCK ON!!

Overall excellent and professional care!
Excellent experience with Dr. Fitzgerald. Previously saw him several years ago for shoulder pain. Surgery wasn't deemed appropriate then. Last month, my shoulder pain had progressed to the point surgery was recommended. My surgery went great and all follow-up appointments have ensured my recovery was going well. Dr. Fitzgerald has been nothing but professional and his expertise and care for his patients' well-being has always been evident.

An excellent provider!
Dr. Fitzgerald did a revision of a shoulder that the first surgeon did not do well. Dr. Fitzgerald is very skilled, confident, and caring. He listens to my concerns. He ordered several tests before surgery so he knew exactly what to expect. I referred a friend at my gym, and he is treating her now.

Dr Fitzgerald is the extremely professional
Dr Fitzgerald is so professional. He has been the best at making a patient feel safe and explains the procedures and puts patients mind at ease. He visits from the very first appointment, prior to surgery and after. He is very caring with his patients. Very thorough at your follow up care., verify progress and let’s you know how far the patient has progressed.
