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.

Exceptional care, kindness, effective treatment
My visit with Dr. Weidenbener was great. He took care of my shoulder injury and came up with a great treatment plan that completely solved an issue I had for months prior. I had been to other doctors who weren't able to help. His staff was very friendly, the wait was short, and he is now one of my favorite doctors I have ever been to. He explained everything very well, and they were able to take into account our insurance and help me make cost effective treatment decisions specifically to my situation. Now I can carry my children again, sleep restfully without pain, and even shoveled the driveway without pain with the recent snow. I 100% recommend Dr. Weidenbener for any orthopedic issue.
