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.

In Trusted, Caring Hands
I have found Dr, Oyer to be a caring person and excellent surgeon. He and his staff are concerned about the patient's state of well being as well as the patient's health. I have only found this level of client caring in a very few doctors in my lifetime. My surgery was wonderfully done with no issues and I give his team many thanks for that!

Looking For The Best Procedure and Surgeon
I need full hip replacement surgery.Dr Oyer is extremely well educated and experienced in this field, specializing in the direct anterior approach. He explained the procedure clearly. He stated in full confidence, how he would help me get full usage of my leg back. I trust him. Can't wait to get started.
