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.

Simply, THE BEST!!
Matt Panzarella has done 9 of my 12 knee surgeries over the course of almost 20 years (Partner, John Hall did the first 3). This Talented man is no stranger to tough surgeries and difficult situations. He has the most outstanding bedside-manner of any MD I’ve ever seen, and there have been many! “Hey Matt”

My original visit to his office was not actually with Dr. Panzarella. The young lady that listened to my symptoms and the medical history of my knee asked Dr. Panzarella for input and he immediately knew what the condition was and how to treat it. I've had this surgery twice before from different doctors and Dr. Panzarella was the only one that I could walk the same day of the surgery. Wonderful touch. Wonderful staff. His ability to listen and provide the appropriate care is fantastic!

Very willing to explain in detail the diagnosis that led him to recommend surgery for my daughter's knee, and shared specific findings, results, and images of the surgery afterwards. Is warm, friendly, and accessible.
