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.

I had my hip replacement done by Dr. Fowble, and he was very good at explaining everything to me, and I felt like a new person once this was done.

Great Doctor
Doctor Fowble did a knee replacement in 2010 and the other knee in 2018 and both are still very good. He is an excellent surgeon and so happy to see he is back in the Jupiter area again. Would highly recommend Dr Fowble

Two Year Follow-up Commentary
Two years ago Dr. Fowble successfully replaced both of my knees. Fowble must be one of Florida’s best orthopedic surgeons, if not the best. I am completely pain free and have a full range of motion in both knees and can play golf, ride the bike, and even jog on a regular basis. Braces, ibuprofen, etc. are not needed and I can move and live life now as well as ever before. Just before my surgery two years ago I needed a wheel chair—a very humbling experience— to get through the airport in Paris to catch a connecting flight on time. Dr. Fowble is rather quiet and humble, but he is obviously well educated, highly experienced and possibly at the height of his career. Yes, I highly recommend Dr. Vincent Fowble.

Dr Fowble is the best!! I felt he put me first, as a patient, and I was totally comfortable and confident in his ability. He explained to me my treatment plan and took time with all of my questions and concerns . He did my Total Hip Replacement and what a great job he did. Scar is minimal, no more pain and I’m walking like I never had surgery at all. I would recommend Dr Fowble to anyone needing total hip or total knee. I refer him to all of my family and friends.

Dr Fowble replaced both knees, one in 2013 and the second in 2018. I had excellent results with both procedures. I found him to be honest, professional and focused on good results. I would highly recommend Dr Fowble to anyone having problems with knees or hips

Dr. Fowble did a great job.
Dr. Fowble is down to earth and direct. He tells it like it is. I found his bedside manner great. He has a good sense of humor. My knee is perfect and I couldn’t be happier with the results. This was 5 years ago in September of 2018.

He botched my sister’s hip replacement.
He did a hip replacement on my sister and 2 months later the fixture came apart. He said he “guessed’ he should have used bigger hardware! She was s now crippled for the rest of her life.

Was unable to see the doctor
I was referred to Dr. Fowble and heard good comments of the dr. Appointment made was seven weeks out. One week prior to the appointment, the office phones to tell me he is taking the day off and his next available appointment was two months later! I mentioned that since he was changing my appointment, he should squeeze me in as soon as possible. This wasn't an option, I was told. I asked what if I was in severe pain, waiting all this time. Then to wait another two months for an appointment! VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. VERY DISAPPOINTED

The best hip doctor – Feb 03, 2023
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Fowble?
I cannot believe anyone could give him a good review. He is rude to his patients and makes quick decisions without regard to the patients needs. His treatment decision with me resulted in an infection and second surgery after just 2 weeks. I would recommend you go elsewhere for your orthopedic care.

I had a complicated previous fractured knee and was told it was inoperable. I waited til I could no longer walk and went to Dr Fowble, who was referred by a local physician. The outcome was amazing. He didn’t ?????????? coat anything He told me everything to expect and the outcome was fantastic. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I have trouble believing a few of these responses, because Dr. Fowble couldn’t have been more caring, more understanding, and more concerned with my rehab. He is straight forward; he tells it like it is; he doesn’t coddle; and he wants to do what is BEST for the patient. I am not a whiner, but I would guess he doesn’t put up with too much whining or complaining! I had one knee replaced and the second one replaced 10 days later! He did an excellent job; I faithfully did my rehab; and I swim and I walk beautifully today with no pain whatsoever! The quality of the surgery is a lot more important than a bedside manner! I would not hesitate to recommend this excellent doctor and surgeon. Sue Teets, Wellington, FL

Dr. Fowble is an excellent Doctor/Surgeon. Performed a total hip replacement. Had me up walking the day after surgery with less pain than I had before the surgery. No complications at all. He and his office staff were friendly, professional and absolutely first rate. They gave me complete information about my options and what to expect. I couldn't be happier with the results and recommend Dr. Fowble without reservation.

Satisfied Customer – Jul 23, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Fowble?
BEWARE!! This practice no longer writes prescriptions for pain medication beyond Tramaodol which will not touch the pain from a total knee replacement or hip. Moreover, they don't advise you of this prior to surgery and when you call in serious pain, desperate for relief they truly could care less, and advise that you can go to a pain clinic. So an elderly patient, who can't even drive yet after surgery, who is crying in pain, can wait weeks to get into a pain clinic and meanwhile be in excruciating pain to the point of tears? They should have been told this prior to surgery. There are other doctors to choose from. It's shameful and inhumane how they are treating patients. SHAME SHAME SHAME

A previous Dr left my leg almost an inch short with a partial hip replacement, making it difficult to walk. Dr Fowble used his considerable skill to remove the cemented stem without cutting and wiring my femur as other highly-regarded Orthopedists thought would be necessary. He eliminated the pain caused by the movement of the head of the prosthesis in my socket and evened my legs with a new total hip. I now walk normally. At 61 and active, I am forever in his debt for his compassion and skill.

Dr. Fowble replaced both my knees 5 years apart. He is straight forward and easy to talk with. However, the real measure of his skill is in the results. Both knee replacements were successful and I have regained full function of both legs with no pain. I've run out of knees, but if I had to have a hip replaced, Dr. Fowble is my surgeon no question!

DR. Fowble was great in handling my case, which another surgeon had avoided. He told me that I was in a delicate category since on dialysis, but gave me all of the facts I needed to have the surgery. I liked his direct and professional manner, before and after the surgery, which was entirely successful.

My husband had bilateral knee replacements this past February and March. I can't say enough about his skill and expertise. He cares for his patients and sees to it that they get excellent care. He's the best in what he does and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a hip or knee replacement. He is known for very difficult cases that other surgeons don't want to even touch.

Dr. Fowble is an excellent doctor; he may not have the best bedside manners, but he is direct. One will have a complete understanding of what to expect. In my opinion, one could not ask for anything different. I have recommended him several times and will continue to recommend him.
