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. Pigg was my 81 year olds doctor and replaced both of her knees. She had complications with arthritic pain before both operations. Both times, doctor Pigg was caring and gave the BEST options for my mom ensuring that all would go well with her. He even spoke to during his own family time (I could hear some sort of ball game in the background during one of our conversations). He has a caring bed side manner that totally put all of us at ease. Highly recommend him!

I had a TKR in September 2018 and I couldn't be happier. Dr. Pigg is very thorough and professional and my recovery has been swift. It is so nice to already have less pain than before my surgery. My Physical Therapist has been amazed at my progress. I would highly recommend Dr. Pigg.

After a TKR, 2 manipulations, & scope. I sought a second opinion. Within 5 minutes, the 2nd surgeon determined the knee joint inserted by Pigg was too large for my leg. I was told my experience was similar to shoving 10 pounds of potatoes into a 5 pound spot. At all appointments, Pigg, repeatedly said my knee looked good & he could not determine why I was not making progress in therapy. My pain was severe which resulted in a very dark time in my life. Pigg or NMC admitted any wrongdoing.

Dr. Pigg genuinely cares about the patient. When I struggled with complications due to Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, he personally called and was willing to work me in to the schedule to help me out. He also spent time researching and consulting other physicians to confirm the CRPS.
