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.

He's an outstanding hand surgeon.
I'm a past patient of Dr. Patari. He's an awesome Dr. He's an outstanding hand surgeon. Most likely will be having surgery on my other hand in the near future.

My wrist is healing nicely. - Many thanks!
Having had such a poor experience at another ortho clinic, I was so relieved to get my wrist taken care of immediately - without having the UN-NECESSARY CMC surgery the other practice insisted I needed. I felt like they were a 'puppy mill'. My wrist is healing nicely. - Many thanks!

Dr. Sanjay Patari listened
The staff at the reception was courteous and explained clearly the instructions for the intake questions on the tablet. Doctor's Nurse: Christine was very kind to explain things to me a senior citizen. She was very professional and wanted to take the time to learn how my arthritis affected me for day to day activities like in my hands. She assessed my level of pain and ability like opening capped bottles of lifting a coffee cup. Dr. Sanjay Patari listened to why I was seeking help. He evaluated my condition and performed an in-office procedure to resolve my swollen finger. He also told me I could return if I needed help in the future.

WHAT EVERY DOCTOR SHOULD BE
Dr. Patari is a treasure in the world of medicine. He actively engages the patient in the treatment and thinks outside the box. He understands that no two situations are exactly alike and sees the person in front of him as a human being. It is clear from the way he interacts with his staff that he is both brilliant and humble. I wish there were more doctors like him. Everyone we encountered in the office was compassionate and cared about the service they were providing.

In 2018 I was involved in a cycling accident that required radial head replacement and ulnar nerve transposition. The attending physician in the emergency room a the time recommended Dr. Patari. I'm glad I took his advice as Dr. Patari did an excellent job with both surgeries. After 4 months of physical therapy, I regained 95-98% percent of range of motion and am able to function normally. Dr. Patari truly listens to his patients and is an excellent surgeon. I would go to him again if needed and would recommend him to my friends and family.
