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. Jaquith is one of the best orthopedic doctor I have ever had, and I've had experience with quite a few. In my research trying to find a local orthopedic surgeon, I discovered that Dr. Jaquith had been at Massachusetts General--one of the best places for knee surgery. When I had my first appointment with him, I learned that he was slowly leaving active surgical practice. The doctors he has working with him, Dr. Mehserle and Dr. Roberts, are excellent as well. Therefore, I am very grateful to have found such a wonderfully skilled group of orthopedists.

Dr. Jaquith is highly educated and experienced. He is a very kind human being. He has a calm approach to relax a patient who may be dealing with a physical limitation which can be depressing. He has been my encouragement even when I could not see adequate progress fast enough or realize this could be a lifelong ailment. Dr. Jaquith has faith we can help heal our selves with hard work at least to the highest degree possible for that individual. He also has employed the sweetest ladies in his office.

Dr Jaquith never rushes you! He takes his time he makes sure you understand what has to be done.I met him when my knee was shattered in 67 pieces . Was done very well . He is caring and holds your hand and says a prayer for you. Like I told him I am retired RN. Told him most mds I saw they thought they were were God and I loved the prayer and how he made me feel . That was was my 1st time with him and prior to that he operated on my husbands Rotator cuff and was very honest with him ! Surgery well done, Recently had Tendonitis. Now thanks to him all better ! The staff work as a team and you can tell by the atmosphere in the office! Krystal is manager does very well !thanks to the following staff. Want to also mention Michelle and Megan Also very good !! Jim in x ray is excellent and makes you feel at ease. McKenzie and Sarah also do great job.Problem with billing see Diana Knows her stuff! Dr Mehserle I have friends that used him! Say he is very good!

His partner in the business told me to see Dr. Jaquith as I needed a partial knee replacement. Dr. Jaquith strongly recommended that I get a full knee replacement as a partial might only last 10-15 years. I'm 74. When I tried to ask him questions he abruptly told me to stop looking at the internet. I asked if I could have a handicap tag and he said, "I want you walking." I was in a lot of pain when I asked or I wouldn't have asked. I'm glad everyone had such a good experience of him. Maybe he had an off day or maybe he's right in when I'm 85 I will need a new knee.
