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.

Wow
I was injured in a fall. Need surgery urgently. Very fortunate luck of the draw that I got Dr. Wherly. I’m well on my way to healing. Surgery was a success and I’ve enjoyed getting to know Dr. Wherly.

Dr. Wehrley is a very caring doctor. He explains everything very well, keeps you calm and is fantastic with shoulders. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great doctor that takes pride in his patients care to get them through a successful surgery start to finish.

Dr.Wehrly was very unprofessional in his bedside manner. He and his nurse laughed and joked about my being upset about receiving a cortisone injection. Dr.Wehrly stated he couldn't do surgery on my shoulder cause I wouldn't fit in the bed. Mr. Wehrly made very rude and unprofessional comments relating to my weight. I feel very discriminated against. Any professional Doctor that thinks it's okay to make a patient cry by their comments and rough handling needs a new job or a bed side manner check. I will not be referring anyone to his office or the office of other doctors he works in.

Dr. Wehrly is exactly what this network needed. He does not rush in and out, he educates as he treats and isn’t going to send everyone home with an opioid script. What a breath of fresh air.

Dr. Wehrly has helped me immensely with my hip bursitis and my arthritic knees. I was in such pain with both but Dr. Wehrly injected me with steroids that completely took the pain away and allowed me to move freely and easily. He is extremely competent but also very funny and light hearted. I would recommend him to anyone. The staff at his practice are also very nice and helpful.

I actually chose Dr. Wehrly after extensive research for an ortho dr. with good reviews. He surpassed my expectations and I was beyond satisfied. I had a minor knee issue that he diagnosed quickly and efficiently . I was most impressed that he actually spoke with me BEFORE taking an X-ray.. Before leaving I scheduled an appt. for my husband who has had knee issues following 2 recent knee replacements.. Dr. Wehrly was kind and empathetic- a gem of a guy and a good listener! Nice staff as well

Dr. Wehrly and his staff did an exceptional job while treating my knee. Dr. Wehrly spent time with my wife and me explaining what the problem was with my knee, the surgical procedure, and what we could expect after the surgery was complete. On my follow up visit after surgery, Dr. Wehrly reviewed the surgery with my wife and me and provided information to help in recovery. His staff has been very professional and helpful during pre and post surgery.
