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.

Best doctor I know
I’ve had two knee surgeries done by Dr Feeley and can’t recommend him enough. He is a top notch doctor that actually listens to his patients. I’ve dealt with knee issues for YEARS and he was the first dr who truly listened to my concerns. He is great about giving you all the options and making sure that you fully understand what is going to happen. If you are looking for an orthopedic surgeon, go to Dr Feeley. You won’t regret it.

Talented, Experienced, Caring Surgeon - Dr. Feeley
I have had two THR surgeries and one Reverse, Total Shoulder Replacement Surgery. My Hips caused me major discomfort but my Shoulder was much more painful. After speaking to my surgeons, we decided to have my hips done first. Now, two weeks after my RSR Surgery, I’m feeling so fortunate and grateful Dr. Feeley was my surgeon, his team assisted and I had UCSF as my hospital. Top notch medical staff and I totally recommend my family and friends to get the best care which I believe is Dr. Feeley and his team.

Shoulder damage? UCSF and Dr. Feeley is the cure.
My 'visit' was a reverse shoulder replacement in the hospital. A what? Dr, Feeley explained at great length what the procedure was and why this procedure was necessary. My career was in finance and as he continued to explain the procedure and I began to drift, is where Faith and Trust of Dr. Feeley was cemented. Will it hurt? 'For a while' OK lets get it done soon.

Anterior labral repair
Dr Feeley and his office were extremely efficient. Not just with the surgery but with all visits and procedures. I hurt my shoulder at work and was fighting with workers comp to get my surgery approved for six months with no success while using another surgeon. Dr Feeley and his team where able to get me in and got my surgery approved. Within 3 weeks from my first visit, I had received my surgery and finally on the correct road to recovery. Thank you!

Inspired confidence
Dr. Feeley agreed to take in my case after several Orthopedic Doctors turned me down. I have complicated health issues but tore up both my knees and after a year of searching for help Dr Feeley was kind, understanding and listened to my needs. He gave me the choice of continued PT for my meniscus damage or surgery which he felt confident would give me an 80-90% decrease of pain if I followed post surgery instructions. I’m only 2 weeks post surgery and can already see the light at the end of the tunnel and my pain at this point is already 15-20% reduced from my daily pain pre surgery when at rest (PT of course is still painful). I will be returning for surgery on the other knee when this one has healed to the point it can support the task of handling all the work while I have to be off the next one.

Excellent Doctor and Team!
I received excellent care and support from Dr. Feeley and team for my meniscus repair and bone cartilage graft. The surgery was a success and the guidance for recovery through live interaction and the MyChart and GetWell Network communications. If you have a sports ligament or cartilage issue, see Dr. Feeley!

Yes I would definitely recommend Dr Feeley to my friends and family. Dr Feeley is on top of situations. I always have notes prepared before a doctor’s visit. But Dr Feely covered all the questions I want to ask even before I ask him. He is caring and has a sense of humor that is comforting and relaxing under stressful situation. He did an excellent job replacing my shoulder. Today is exactly two weeks after my surgery and I am feeling good with not much pain or problem. I traveled from Southern California to have my surgery done at UCSF. It is worth all the arrangements and hassles to get such a successful surgery outcome by Dr Feeley and his team. I am truly grateful.

Dr. Feeley performed my shoulder replacement and at 8 weeks, I'm doing great. Minimum pain. Left the hospital the same day as the surgery. Feel lucky to have him. Looking forward to a full recovery.

Dr. Feeley is an incredible surgeon and someone I highly recommend. He has replaced both of my shoulders. The UCSF system of care is remarkable and revolves around frequent communication with the patient prior to and after surgery. Dr. Feeley and the UCSF team are commended for their quick responses to all inquires. Finally, Dr. Feeley is a great person.
