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.

Missed appointment
Appointment scheduled 9/1/2023 at 8:10am,. Received three text messages and three emails over a two week period reminding me. Once I showed up I found out the doctor was not in. The staff was not apologetic nor were they concerned that the visit did not happen. They tried to reschedule me one week later at 6:30am which I found out was scheduled incorrectly at 630PM.

Dr. Singer is one of the best surgeons I have met. He takes time with you and explains everything that he will be performing. When you go for surgery his bedside manner is what you want in a surgeon. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. It truly is the best here, I cannot express it enough. Everyone is just so wonderful there. Highly recommend!

this was my first experience with a broken bone and at 71 years old i was very scared to say the least but dr singer has such a calming and caring way that he put me completely at ease. i had almost no pain after the surgeries to put in the hardware and then to take it out. my therapist, kurt, was also excellent and i am now able to do everything always did before. thanks to all the great staff at both places. yvonne vangel
