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.

Dr Noerdlinger is a compassionate doctor.
Dr. Noerdlinger really listens. He is very compassionate. When we decided on surgery, he took time to make sure I understood exactly what he would be doing and how the recovery would go.

Dr. Noerdlinger is professional, confident, and kind. He explained the procedure, answered all my questions, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole experience. He also followed up the evening of my surgery to ask how I was feeling.

5 stars for a perfectly healed shoulder.
Dr. Noerdlinger already fixed my right shoulder. I have zero concerns with an upcoming surgery to fix my left. He is kind, informative, patient and lets you have a discussion about all the treatment options and outcomes. He also fixed my sister's shoulder with perfection. I highly recommend.
