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.

Surgery on radius break at the wrist
He did a great job fixing the break. His follow-up was through and he showed me what to do and had me do to make sure I understood. Good bedside manner.

Total knee replacement
So happy that doctors like this are still around. Dr. Romine did a rotator cuff surgery on me previously, and now a total knee. He is a great listener. I never feel rushed at my visit. He answers all my questions , and is truly concerned for my well being. He has a great bedside manner. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent orthopedic surgeon.

I would definitely refer Dr. Romine to anyone
I am a newer patient of Dr. Romine. I first saw him for rotaror cuff and bicep injuries. He has been courteous, attentive and informative. You never feel rushed, he takes the time to listen and is very informative. I would definitely refer him to friends, family.

Consultation for knee replacement
My visit was for a knee replacement. Dr. Romine provided me information on the condition of both my knees with one being worse than the other. He explained the procedure and what would occur. The scarring and cosmetic surgery he used to make it less visible. Dr. Romaine answered my daughter's question s who worked in orthopedic research. He did not rush me into considering surgery right away. However, I was left with reassurance and decided to proceed with knee replacement surgery.

Repeat Paitent
This is the second problem I've seen Dr Romine for. The first problem was fixed and requires no additional treatment. If only that were true for my current problem. Dr Romine took the time to explain the details in a way I could understand. We agreed on a course of treatment and he let me know of what could happen and what to expect. We have a game plan and I trust his recommendations. For those who aren't satisfied with wait times, I would just say Dr Romine will take the necessary time with you to give you a comprehensive assessment and plan of action. This is important and should be time honored. This doctor is AWESOME.

As Tina would say ‘you’re simply the best!’
Introduced himself right away. Was running late and apologized but still sat down to talk to me . I felt he was listening and I never felt rushed . Even though he was running late , I could hear him talking to an elderly couple in the hallway. He was warm, polite , and engaging. I didn’t mean to mention ‘running late’ like it was a bad thing , Dr. Romine is worth waiting for . He seems to treat each patient with concern and patience . So happy he is my doctor !

Shoulder Replacement
I have had both shoulders replaced with the same procedure two years apart. I can tell you with my experience with Dr. Romine I would go through this again if ever it came to be. I NEVER had any pain. I know that's hard to believe but it's the truth. Not in either shoulder, not the day of the surgery, not 3 days later, when most people say it's the worse day. Not during NONE period. He is the best at shoulder replacement in my personal opinion.

Great Doctor, Surgeon, and Friend
Dr. Romine’s personality is the best. He makes one feel important and he listens. He has performed 7 surgeries on me, most recently a hip replacement. He is conscientious about infection control. He’s my first choice for any orthopedic surgery.
