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.

incredibly unhelpful
He said he'd prescribe some meds, and I should look at the visit notes and research them and decide if I wanted to take them. The visit notes had no info about the meds and said to call his office if I had questions about them. I had questions so I called, I messaged, nobody ever got back to me, and then he stopped treatment with me. Super weird, and really unprofessional.

wondering how he's a doctor – Apr 24, 2024
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Degen?
I was unable to walk and in incredible pain. When I say unable to walk that was not a voluntary decision; I actually had neuro-muscular impairment. The nerves were not conducting impulses to the muscles. Dr, Degen was appropriate, friendly, professional and very accurate of his assessment of the problem. He expedited my appointments for further evaluation and surgery that ultimately resulted in 90 % resolution (as of now 5 weeks post op). I wish he were my primary doctor!

A really incredible doctor and human being. He cares so much, is very honest, has a great sense of humor, and is amazing at what he does. I was misdiagnosed with a back strain for several months by another doctor and Dr. Degen’s quick evaluation discovered I had a hip labral tear I ended up having surgery on. I could not thank him enough for all he has done for my chronic pain. His staff is so kind, professional and you can tell they all work in a very happy and healthy environment!

Very poor, got to know the back of his laptop or phone verywell. Absolutely no eye contact wich makes it very hard to talk to your dr. Might be okay for one time visits but not a good long term dr
