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.

Gold Standard
Dr. Byrne is the gold standard for Orthopedic Surgery. Honest, Caring & Highly Skilled. Performed surgery for a Pectoralis Major Muscle Rupture on me. Currently stronger than I have ever been.

Dr. Byrne was great throughout this entire experience. He and his team got me in quick and provided outstanding service from the initial consultation, through the surgery, and into the post-op procedures for my broken hand. This man is a professional and very good at what he does. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of ortho services and trust him with my well-being. Great guy, exceptional service.
