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. Kalore gave me truthful options with the probable outcome of each. He did not attempt to push one option over the others. Once I decided on the hip replacement, he immediately set in motion, everything for a successful outcome. He has a staff that works in harmony to achieve the best outcome for the patient.

He's the best!
Dr. Kalore has given my life back to me. I needed to have both hips replaced, so he has seen me through 2 surgeries and 2 recoveries. He is not only a highly skilled surgeon, but he's a wonderful human being. He truly cares about his patients and the quality of their lives and he's got a lovely and gentle sense of humor. He's also up on the latest research and he uses procedures and protocols in line it. For example, he will do the surgery using robotic equipment, which allows for more precise measurements, better results, and easier recovery. And through it all, he answers every question and is wonderfully supportive. If you are having mobility issues, get an X-ray and get surgery if it's needed - and go to Dr. Kalore!

Caring, compassionate, knowledgeable
I feel very fortunate to have found Dr. Kalore. He has been instrumental in improving my quality of life by replacing both hips after experiencing may years of pain/issues. He is compassionate and very thorough. He actually takes the time to go over specific findings with test results and explain the procedure he is recommending. I will never forget going in to have my first hip replaced and the nurse that was getting me ready said 'just so you know, if I ever have to have a major surgery like yours, Dr. Kalore is who I would get to do it'. And every nurse thereafter said the same thing.

Successful Hamstring Repair!
I will be forever grateful for Dr Kalore! The fourth surgeon I consulted recommended two months of therapy and dry-needling, followed by cutting the glute lengthwise to access the hamstring!!! He advised that it’s a “deep” surgery that most orthopedic surgeons don’t do because it’s right next to the sciatic nerve. (The first three surgeons I saw don’t do it.) Even if successful, I would always have discomfort sitting because of the scar along my panty line. When asked about endoscopy, he said not many surgeons do it, including himself. When I told this to Dr Kalore, he said “I do it all the time!”. He explained that he starts EVERY hamstring repair endoscopically by making two holes in the skin. The glute is not cut. However, if he can’t see the sciatic nerve, he has to withdraw and do it the old way. My surgery was successful! No pain afterwards— only soreness. It was nothing compared to pre-surgery pain! Dr Kalore gave me back a future without pain! I can’t thank him enough!!!

If I could give negative stars I would. I wasted my time and money to go to this specialist, and I left there with absolutely nothing other than I'm sorry but I don't have a solution for you! He offered absolutely nothing.
