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.

I was treated very well like I always am there. That is why I tell everybody that this is the place to go. I would not go anywhere else for anything I need done

Dr. Scherb is always ready to listen and takes the needed time to explain things. He did a total hip replacement for me, and I couldn't be happier with my results.

I can't say anything bad about my last appointment with Dr. Sherb. Wait time was minimal, I felt he took time, asked appropriate questions to come up with my diagnosis. Very nice and friendly staff. Pleasant experience all around.

Dr Scherb took time to listen to my fears and respected them in the procedure that followed. He discussed the future probable course of my knee problem and options for treatment and the pros and cons of each so I could decide what I wanted to have him do next. He gave me time to talk about it and to ask questions. I did not feel rushed.

I think Dr Scherb is a very competent Ortho. Sometimes we patience want are illnesses to hurry up and heal, but sometimes that's not possible or practical. I am doing everything that I was told to do and my foot does feel some better, however I know it's going to take a long time to heal up because of my diabetes. Dr. Sherbert and his staff are 8 plus number one with me.
