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.

Great Outcome on Hip Replacement
Everyone in the office was helpful and pleasant - from the x-ray techs to the nursing staff to Dr. Powers. My surgery, performed by Dr. Powers, was a great success, and I am overjoyed! The follow-up therapy provided was great. I felt very well-informed and comfortable throughout the entire process.

Dr. Powers is wonderful. I just had a total hip replacement and am healing quickly. I was off pain medication by my first follow up visit. He is an excellent surgeon and well spoken of even by the other doctors I see. I felt I was in good hands and was not disappointed.

Total Knee Replacements
I had to have my partial knee replacement taken out and replaced with a full knee replacement on my left knee. I then had to have my right total knee replacement one year later. I was extremely pleased with Dr Powers mannerism, professionalism and expertise in his field. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr Powers for anyone who needs a replacement. I also had him reattach a tendon to my shoulder blade. He was so compassionate and understanding to my problems and always got me in a.s.a.p.

Amazing Surgeon
I went to see Dr. Powers because I was having severe hip pain. When he looked at my x-ray and he could see that I was bone on bone. I had surgery to repair this and Dr. Powers did can amazing job!! I will only see him if I need surgery in the future.

Dr. Superman
Dr. Powers went above and beyond to help me get the use of my leg back! Little did I know it was all coming from my knee. I had been told for 3 years I had severe arthritis and it would be my new normal to have daily pain and was given pain medication to help manage through daily life. My mom ended having a knee replacement ( by Dr. Powers) and she just kept going on about the exceptional care he gave and excellent personality he displays! She encouraged me to go see him for that second opinion and I did. It changed my life! Here I had a inner and outer torn meniscus on my left knee. Took me sometime to recover....but was worth every second! I now can ride in a car again, I can work and come home and be productive, I sleep at night... because I'm not in terrible pain anymore! THANK YOU Dr. Powers and staff for your above and beyond care you give to your patients!!! I highly recommend NOMS!!!
