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.

Explained condition and options clearly and didn’t rush. Very caring and thorough. Staff was great too. Everything was easy. Highly recommend.

Terrible bedside manner. Terrible staff assistants who never takes calls, returns calls back the patients or follows through with things. Skip this office. There are way better orthopedics in the city.

I took my daughter to see Dr. Stracher for a thumb injury. Dr. Stracher took the time to listen and evaluate her thumb and put us on a course of conservative treatment to start with - exactly what I wanted for my daughter. He was talented, kind and spoke directly to my daughter, letting her know her concerns were important. When surgery was imminent, Dr. Stracher took his time and great care with my daughter. The surgery and recovery were both a success. I highly recommend Dr. Stracher!
