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.

Dr was very concerned and made me feel reassured he was going to figure out why I am having this problem

Very thorough doctor
He was extremely thorough in all the different options. Even explained how to proceed for surgery in the next year so we wouldn't be waiting for a surgery date. Very pleasant person.

Dr B is outstanding!
This was a post surgical check-in. Dr B had picked up after 2 failed surgeries by another practice. He partnered with a skilled plastic surgeon for closing a challenging wound and repaired my Achilles. His approach was careful and deliberate. The outcome to date is all I hoped for.

My ankle orthopedic visit resulted in some very specific recommendations that resulted from a detailed discussion of my daily practices coupled with the physical condition of my feet as well as a thorough review of xrays. I walked away quite satisfied.

A Fantastic Doctor!
It's difficult these days to find a doctor who will give such personalized care.. Everyone there is so friendly and there's never a long wait. Dr. Blankenhorn is fixing what another doctor did to my foot with a botched surgery. I totally trust this doctor's opinion.
