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.

Referred to Dr. Temple for advice/opinion regarding a complicated multiple failed hip replacement. Dr. Temple and his team could not have been more professional, informative and generous with their time and attention to our questions and concerns. Was able to get test results at time of office visit which was surprising and appreciated (2 hour drive from home). So relieved and optimistic about the future.

I can't say enough good things about the Dr. Temple and his practice. I can usually rave about a physician, but not always the staff surrounding him. However, in this case, they are all great. Beginning with Zoraida who was easy to contact and then ensured that I had the correct records and got me in for an appointment ASAP. To the X-Ray tech who couldn't have been friendlier. To his Nurse Practicioner David who ensured I had every question answered quickly. And, of course, Dr. Temple, whom I trust completely. He was patient, thorough and leaves no stone unturned. I can see why he is so highly recommeded by other physicians. So glad he is now following my case.

I was diagnosed with a rare cancer. My doctor called Dr. Temple’s office and he saw me that very day. From that point on, he directed my radiation treatment and did surgery to remove the tumor. His quick action and his skill gave me a good outcome. The entire office and medical staff are great. A caring team that helped me tremendously!

I would highly recommend Dr. Temple. He is an excellent orthopedic surgeon with the best bedside manner. My husband has been under his care since October 2017. After visiting several doctors since May 2017, Dr. Temple was able to diagnose and take care of his problem, which required surgery. My husband is finally on the mend and doing well. Thanks to Dr. Temple and his terrific staff, starting with those very kind ladies in the front office and his awesome assistants, David and Ruben. Great job

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Temple…I have been under his care for almost 3 years and happy to report that I have been given a clean bill of health for over 2 years. Dr. Temple has always taken time to explain the treatments or results of the test to a point of understanding. He always made it seem that I am his only patient even though he as many. If you are of need of his services then he would be my first choice. You can look all over the world for the best doctor but you will no

Doctor Temple is one of the best Orthopedic doctors in the country. His willingness to take on difficult cases that other Dr's wouldn't, speaks for himself. I know this first hand after having other Dr's operate on my leg just to say they want to amputate instead of the long road of saving the leg. NOT DR. Temple, he has gone above and beyond to save my leg and get my life back on track. He has given me hope back that I'll keep my leg and will one day walk again! Thank you Dr. Temple
