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.

You have to get past the staff to see a doctor. Twice they scheduled me with the PA even though I specifically discussed the fact that I wanted to see the doctor not a PA. They're dishonest, and they're very difficult to deal with if you need to get injections ordered from your specialty pharmacy. Dr. Okun is a good doctor but the hassle of dealing with the staff in this practice is something new patient you have to deal with. Patients who come to orthopedic surgeons are in pain!

Dr Okun performed a total knee replacement and the results have been fantastic. He is very good at explaining the whole procedure without rushing you. His professionalism puts you at ease. We chose him because of the recommendations of so many friends.

My wife, a Ukrainian lady, had to have knee surgery in 2003 to repair a torn meniscus. John did it quickly, exceptionally well and she was very pleased with the results.
