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.

Their office fitted me the same day I called for an appointment. Dr. Wexler and his staff saw me promptly, took X-rays and evaluated my condition and sent me off with a treatment plan. Thank you Dr. Wexler and would certainly recommend you in the future.

Impatient and uncaring
Dr Wexler simply does not care about his patients. Never says hello, doesnt know who you are, you are simply a procedure to him, done in minutes. Leaves room, never says goodbye, see you ? You.re left on your own, no direction, appts made by nurse without consulting patient. Difficult to have faith in a twirling dervish doctor in a bone factory

I checked in, and was quickly admitted. Within minutes I had x-rays taken, and Dr Wexler came in and explained to me my condition, and offered a plan for treatment.

Wrong Diagnosis
Initially I thought it was great.. he looked at the MRI did not order his own Xray and sold me a brace and indicated it was just arthritis. I even said it is more than that. They never got back to me and the situation is very bad.. I went for another opinion and I need a knee replacement and that is delayed because I let him put a cortisone shot in the knee.. They cannot do surgery for 3 months. I saw the xray and it is worse than bone on bone.. the bone is shot. An xray probably would have told him what it told the next doc.

Ver rude
This doctor is very rude and condescending. It was my first time meeting him and boy did he give a horrible impression. Never want to see him again. If you want to be talked down to and basically mocked go see him. Idk how he is a doctor with no bedside manner whatsoever.

Would NOT reccomend
Yes, the surgery went well. BUT Doctor Wexler (and much of the staff) is extremely rude. Gave me zero options or information prior to surgery. At our first meeting, I was telling my medical history in regard to the specific body part... Wexler could not have cared less. He just wanted to schedule me for surgery and be done. On 3 separate occasions (check-ups) he has come into the examine room, said "I'll be right back in to see you.." and then he never returns. In and out, zero compassion. This is not what people want from an orthopedic surgeon. Would not recommend. * SURGCENTER staff were the only saving grace during this whole process. Nice, helpful staff. Would go there again definitely, but not with this doctor.
