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.

Excellent Orthopedic Surgeon !
Dr. Crossman quickly diagnosed my worn hip and explained the circumstances that made my replacement necessary. He explained that the pain I had suffered for some time would likely be immediately relieved. He scheduled me about a month out, and gave me several tasks to complete for clearance. He performed the surgery, and because of comorbidities ordered an overnight hospital stay. I immediately realized relief of the pain I had suffered for years. I have had an uneventful and quick healing period. as of now four months out, I feel practically normal, although I am still cautious.I would highly recommend Dr. Crossman for any orthopedic need.

Surgeon
I have been seeing Dr Crossman since he came to Bay county to Practice at Orthopaedic Specialist. He and his PA have been the kindest most supportive and caring Drs I have seen. Since I had issues that stopped me from getting my knee replaced earlier they worked with me to keep me going until I could get a replacement in July. Dr Crossman and his team have been checking on me weekly to make sure everything is going smoothly. If I have a visit with the PA Kevin, Dr Crossman will make it a point to come in and look at my leg and see how I’m doing. That is true dedication to the patient. I will not go anywhere else in Bay County while Dr Crossman is practicing here.

Knee injections
Dr. Crossman’s assistant, Kevin, has always done my knee injections. He makes me feel comfortable and genuinely seems to be a great addition to this practice.

Trauma total right hip replacement
Dr. Crossman was amazing. I was terrified and never would have expected at my age to be having a hip replacement. He was very kind and helpful. He has been kind and helpful since the surgery. He has an amazing bed-side manor. He is thoughtful and truly cares about his patients.

Dr. Crossman is very personable and professional and did a great job on my total knee replacement. In fact, I am scheduled for the other knee replacement with him as well. As I was making my decision about the second knee, he did not try to persuade me one way or the other. He just stated facts and answered all my questions and concerns. His PA and office staff are great as well. I would recommend Dr. Nicholas Crossman for knee surgery.
