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.

Dr Edmonds is the best! Always explains everything about your problems and offers all alternatives to help you.

Consult for Knee
Dr Edmunds took the time to explain my MRI and discuss my options. I appreciated his ability to stay present, through the knocks he was getting to alert him another patient was waiting; long enough to answer all my questions. Lastly, I am grateful that he cared enough to treat me with respect and understanding.

Dr. Edmunds is an excellent doctor and has been my surgeon for 26 years. He is one of the best physicians I have ever known. Dr. Edmunds has performed 4 surgeries for me including surgical repair of my right shoulder in 1999, full replacement of right and left hips in 2018 and 2019 and full replacement of my right shoulder in 2023. Every surgery he does is perfect. I recommend him to everyone I know who is in need of any orthopaedic surgery.
