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.

One of the Best Orthopedics I’ve been to!
Dr. Horst is a straight shooter. I’ve never met a Dr. that is so hyper focused on their craft. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and is a good listener. He will thoroughly explain what’s going on through the process. I’ve now had two surgeries with him and I’ve only had exceptional care from him! My whole family sees him. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer someone to him! The five star reviews you see here are legit! He’s an excellent orthopedic surgeon.
