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.

Work related Accident
I had a work related accident October of last year broke my hip in two places he put me back together, A lot of rehab from the hospital to the office he answered I have a question I had and got me back to work. Some difficulty still, but it’s a long process like he said from the beginning. Great doctor for sure. Thank you Sir for everything .

Kind, Professional Service!!!
Dr. Opalacz performed surgery to repair my Distal Biceps rupture in November 2021. I have made a full recovery and had no serious complications. He is very professional and knowledgeable and had answers for all my questions throughout my recovery. I definitely recommend him to anyone considering surgery.

Dr Opalazk is the best surgeon all around. He has always listened to my concerns and given me the best care plan and care I could ask for in a surgeon. He is attentive and caring. Maybe I’m bias. But I think he’s the best surgeon anywhere. I’ve never met anyone as caring and professional and concerning as him. You will not go wrong by choosing him as your surgeon Thank you so much for taking excellent care of me during and after my surgery. I’m sure you will take equally good care of me during my upcoming surgery

This has been the second time I have seen Dr. Opalacz, both times he has been very professional and informative. He doesn't rush in and out and takes time to explain your condition and treatment options. He also includes the patient in the decision of treatment plans. His nurse was excellent and staff. I would highly recommend him, outstanding bedside manner.

Doctor O is an amazing surgeon. He has a great bedside manner and fixed a severely torn rotator cuff that other surgeons could not. Not only that, my results were better than he had indicated, and both he and I are surprised and pleased with the result! He is very honest and attentive and I highly recommend him! 1000 stars!

Dr. Opalacz was obviously very knowledgeable about my condition, osteoarthritis. He listened patiently to my concerns for a lengthy period of time. He offered various treatments but left the ultimate decision with me. I truly appreciated his honesty - he didn't paint a very pretty picture but then there wasn't a pretty picture to paint. And on a non-professional basis, especially like the pink socks for Valentine's Day.
