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.

Hip arthroscopic surgery
Dr Greene did awesome repairing my hip. Bone spur removal, impingement fixed, and torn labrum repaired. I’m pain free! My hip works perfect! I’m thrilled. He listened and answered all my questions without rushing me.

I was very disappointed in my appointment with Dr. Greene. Neither him nor his student were wearing masks during our appointment and the rest of the staff that I interacted with were only wearing cloth masks. I felt like my concerns were not listened to, despite repeating myself multiple times and my questions were dismissed very quickly. The administrative stuff outside of the appointment were easy enough, but I will not be going back if I have a choice.

Just met Dr. Green and he seemed very knowledgeable about my case and gave me a positive feeling about the surgery. But I think he forgot to assess me though.

My experience with Dr. Greene was terrible! I shattered my femur in a fall. He offered a non-surgical option, even though I am 79 and diabetic. I was sent to a nursing home in a poorly fitting immobilizer. He would not return calls to either my primary physician or nursing home physician. A month later the nursing home physician ordered x-rays and determined that the bones were mis-aligned. Dr. Greene said he couldn't find a surgeon who was willing to do the surgery and was contemplating sending me to UCSF or Stanford. Turns out the Orthopedic Surgeon who trained him and is Chief of Staff at a local hospital did my surgery after I contacted him (I knew him from a prior surgery). Dr. Greene certainly did not impress me. One star is the lowest, but frankly, he deserves no stars for his uncaring treatment of me.

was referred to this surgeon by my orthopedic doc. I waited an hour past my appt. met with him for 10 minutes. He didn’t read the referral at all and then asked me what test I wanted. I told him the one that will give him the info he needed. Then he took 1 mo. to send the referral for testing. I had to contact him for results& surgery date. Then due to the length of time it took him, I had to drive and pay again to see him for 5 minutes. After surgery he didn’t come to tell me what he did or how it went. I have left him 3 messages and it’s been a week since surgery. Worst experience I’ve ever had. Would give him a zero if I could.

I went to Dr. Greene in 2013. I had surgery in 2013 and remain in pain through and including today. I went to Stanford this week and found : The new image shows regrowth of the bone I asked Dr. Greene in at least one apt whether the bone would grow back. A firm "No"was the answer Went to Stanford and it appears it won't grow back IF YOUR ORTHO PRESCRIBES AN ANTI-INFLAM to be taken for 4 weeks post op. Greene missed this step. I do no have confidence in this surgeon and don't recommend him

Dr. Greene is very professional and yet very personable. I've had hip injections by him as well as shoulder surgery. I thought Dr. Greene did a fantastic job on my shoulder surgery. It was fairly extensive surgery and today I have full range of motion and no problems with it. Dr. Greene will take the necessary time to explain procedures/surgery etc and make it understandable. I would recommend him to everyone.
