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 Motz, you are a super Star!!!!

A Doctor Who Cares
Had a knee injury that I feared to be catastrophic and Dr. Motz and his team went above and beyond in accommodating a rush schedule and diagnosing what the injury actually was. They put together a plan that we all agreed on and surgery went great. Better yet, recovery is going better than planned and looking forward to being 100%. Great Orthopedic Surgeon with a really amazing team.

Great surgical experience
Dr. Motz reviewed my MRI and was upfront with me and said my injury could not be repaired but suggested that cleaning it by doing arthroscopy might relieve some or all of the pain that I was experiencing. I liked his honesty and his plan to relieve my pain. Surgery went well and I’m a week out now and the pain that I previously had is gone, only surgical pain now. I am very pleased!

Horrible experience!!!
I wish I could give negative stars! I wasted my time and money on an appointment with Dr. Motz, and now I have to switch to a different practice. I spoke with Dr. Motz assistant, Amelia, prior to making the appointment to establish care to get a gel shot. Amelia told me that Dr. Motz does the injections, but she DID NOT tell me that he refuses to use insurance for injections. During my appointment Dr. Motz told me he and hisstaff don't have time to deal with insurance companies on injections, but he will do it for $600.00, which will save me money. That is ridiculous! I have been getting the gel shots for years, I have great insurance, it has never been an issue getting the shots approved, and my co-pay is $25.00. Dr. Motz was very rude, and he said he would have one of the other doctors handle my care because they don't mind having their staff waste their time dealing with insurance companies. Horrible medical care and customer service!!!

Not so happy with my visit to Dr Motz
I am certain that Dr Motz is an excellent doctor in his field since he does practice with Orthopedic centers of Colorado, however my experience was more than disappointing . I think when the doctor finally came in after X-rays were taken and more than half an hour after my appointment time, he was with me less than 5 minutes . Felt my knee, told me I have arthritis and to make an appointment with another doctor in the practice. I informed him that it hurt terribly bad to walk or stand and I could barely bend it but he dismissed me as quickly as he could not even offering any suggestions to ease the pain until I could see the other doctor. I felt very my issues were quickly dismissed and that perhaps having just arthritis was a negative thing and a waste of his time. I actually left feeling embarrassed and low for coming to him with 'just ' arthritis. Perhaps he was having an off day or something but I'm hopeful the next doctor will attempt to care.

Prompt, Caring, and Effective Knee Repair
Upon injuring my knee, I was able to get in to meet with Dr. Motz within days; had an MRI 2 days later; and ultimately surgery all within 3 weeks. He has a caring and straightforward manner, takes the time to address all questions and concerns. He is honest in his assessment of the injury and repair, setting the appropriate expectation for the outcome. I feel fortunate to have landed in his expert care following my unexpected injury.

Dr. Cary Motz understands the needs of a diverse population such as kids, athletes and older patients, and will tell you if surgery may not be in your best interest. Having said that, if you decide to proceed with surgery, he is a very skilled surgeon.

Highly Recommend Dr. Cary Motz
In 2022 I went to see Dr. Cary Motz regarding my right shoulder. After an examination, x-ray and MRI he was able to assess the problem and relieve the pain with a steroid injection. When I started having pain in my left shoulder in 2023, I made an appointment with Dr. Cary Motz again. He remembered me from last year and quickly evaluated the issue, did an ultrasound in the examination room, and gave me a steroid injection during the same appointment. Dr. Motz took the time to listen to my concerns, diagnose my condition, and relieve the pain within minutes. I would highly recommend Dr. Cary Motz.

5 Star
The wait in the exam room was a little long, but the Dr. & his Assistant were great! Dr. Moetz went over both my shoulder my MRI's discussed options. We agreed on the steroid shots, which the Dr. administered himself (with the aid of a ultrasound machine). It was a little painful, but actually I expected worse, so I guess the Dr. has a gentle touch! I woke up this morning with not as much pain as before, & the Dr. said it will probably take 3-4 weeks to fully work!
