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.

Thank you
Dr Byrd is an awesome orthopedic surgeon. He is very knowledgeable and confident. He replaced my right hip a few years back and I have been pain free. He will be replacing my left hip in a few months. I highly recommend Dr Byrd and AOS.

Issue handled
Dr Byrd reviewed my hip x-rays and provided a thorough explanation of my current status. He offered a solution to alleviate the bursitis pain I've been experiencing. I appreciated his calm manner.

Great Orthopedic Surgeon
I have had a hip and most recently a knee replaced by Dr Byrd. Everything has been an excellent experience. I am going to have my other knee done and I wouldn't consider anyone else to do the surgery.

Hope for a hip
Dr. Byrd was very compassionate in explaining I would not be able to recieve a hip replacement until I lost around a 100 pounds. Could not help me now, but reassured me he could once I loose the weight.
