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.

Horrible billing. Stay away.
My son had foot pain and we went to urgent care prior to this office visit. X-rays determined no fracture at urgent care. Went to this office for further evaluation. The assessment was he has a fracture and put him in walking boot. Overcharged with billing codes. Using billing codes for multiple follow up visits which were not required as there was no fracture. I paid less for orthopedic surgery than this office for foot pain. For foot pain paid $1350 total for 30 minute visit. Stay away

I visited Dr. Snyder for the first time in September 2017, and I have been going to him ever since. He is always nice and open to any concerns that I have with Scoliosis. He has passion for the subject, and he is always updated with current trends in Scoliosis. His recommendation for Jeevam Therapy has been the best step towards a better back for me.

I brought my 13 year old daughter to Dr. Snyder for scoliosis. He told us that she would need braces for day and night and would need to wear them for 23 hours per day. He also said he was only 1 out of 3 orthopedists in the country who add physical therapy. He gave me the business card for Edge Orthotics and the brochure for Jeevam Therapy, both of which are shown on his website under "Scoliosis Program". The websites for both are not real websites and their addresses are the same. Scam!!

The wait is just way too long. We waited 45 in the waiting room, then another 10 in the patient room. The doctor was ok and did what he was suppose to do but we won't be going back. Need to find someone that is more efficient with their time.

STAY AWAY. Office staff is incompetent. They have kept us waiting for hours at a time each appointment. Cannot get a straight answer about getting copies of X-rays for review by another doctor. Even doctor's opinion seems suspect--first he told us that my son's cast would come off in 2 weeks, now it's five? We will be seeking a second opinion.

Dr. Snyder was recommended to me by a neighbor and I've been very pleased with him. Both of my children are accident-prone-- one in gradeschool and one a teen, and they both have seen him and have been very comfortable with the doctor. He is very professional and he explained everything very thoroughly. He also included detailed instructions about aftercare, which I thought was very important. Also, Dr. Snyder's office staff were able to fit me in for last minute appointments before vacation.

Dr Snyder takes care of my children as if they were his very own, he's extremely patient and nurturing. My daughter esp is petrified of any type of Dr but when she saw Dr Snyder following a fall from the monkey bars at school she was at ease and I actually heard a giggle. Dr. Snyder has a gift for "reaching" his patients and the parents as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Snyder.

Dr. Snyder could not have been more patient and kind to our daughter. She was so upset and in pain when we arrived at his office. He pulled out his collection of puppets and put on a very funny show for her that finally brought a smile to her face. We could not be happier with him. Highly recommend.

The doctor introduced himself in each of 7 visits I had with my two kids within last 3 years. It is either a bad visual memory or total indifference to his patients. There was a really hard time to get a gym excuse note in 2 business days after the visit. The doctor insisted for another visit, while nothing changed in medical conditions. Never called back after I left a message with his assistant. As a result, I had to go to my son's pediatrician to get the note for school.
