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.

Knee replacement
Wonderful doctor and nurse, Shari. After 12 days, I was done with the walker and never needed the cane. Drove at 5 weeks, started using steps, and had no more knee pain after 30 years. They were great, answered all my questions, and I had a remarkably smooth recovery. I highly recommend them. 5 stars!

Excellent results
Went for my one-year post-hip replacement check up. Everything is great; x-rays show that implants are exactly as they were when placed and are still perfect. Very happy I had my surgery performed here. Dr. Estrada is very attentive and thorough. All of the staff are very helpful and pleasant.

Fantastic Orthopedist!
I have seen Dr Estrada on several occasions over the last 10 years, and have received excellent care, including Rotator cuff surgery. He is so knowledgeable, competent, caring and a great listener. I have total trust in him. All the staff I have met, are all so pleasant. Special kudos to his nurse, Sharri, who is such an asset to the practice - and always a smile to share with all. Cannot say enough good things about Dr Estrada- such a stellar Orthopedic surgeon! I feel blessed to have received such wonderful, attentive care, and have referred him to many friends, family, and acquaintances.

They should teach team-building at business school
The team at OANO are a well oiled machine. The friendliness from the front desk and Dr Estrada’s Med Assn’t to the x-ray tech and billing desk are unmatched when I compare them to ANY OTHER BUSINESS OFFICE (medical or otherwise.) And of course Dr E is calm, kind, a good listener, and communicator. 5 STARSThey should teach a class in business school

Best doctor in New Orleans
Dr. Estrada is an excellent orthopedic surgeon, as well as a caring and professional physician. He listens and offers solutions. You are totally involved in your care decisions. He explains things thoroughly and answers all of your questions. I consider myself to be fortunate to be Dr. Estrada’s patient. I have 100% confidence in him. His nurse, Sherri, goes the extra mile for her patients also. Excellent care.
