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. Denard was very helpful explaining the process. I really appreciate his emphasis on nutrition before and after the surgery. I feel confident that the outcome will be what I'm hoping for. He was kind and polite. I felt like he is focused on the best outcome for his patients.

Absolutely Outstanding Surgeon
Dr Denard repaired my torn rotator cuff in July of 2024. This was my final visit with him. My shoulder is 95% normal. Dr Denard is very particular, which I appreciate. His skills are exceptional and his team is excellent. I highly recommend Dr Denard

I had a badly torn rotator cuff fixed at a different orthopedic clinic. It fell apart. Dr. Denard was very straight forward to say my shoulder was going to need a reverse replacement and explained the procedure.This was our first meeting. I was very pleased.

Outstanding surgeon
The staff were friendly and I hardly had to wait to be put into an exam room. Dr. Denard is an outstanding surgeon and he fully repaired the massive tear I had on my rotator cuff. I will always highly recommend him as a doctor (he's kind and caring) and surgeon.

At my appointment with Dr. Denard, he explained my MRI, the surgery needed, and answered all of my questions clearly. I also received a folder of information concerning the process before, during, and after surgery so I can be better prepared throughout.

World Class top notch shoulder surgeon
A total professional with absolute confidence of his ability. Friendly but all business.His ability to restore my shoulder with 9 anchors,torn Labrum and severe arthritis, to its nearly original state after numerous surgeries by other physicians was impeccable. Second to none. I can even throw a baseball now. I couldn't have picked a better surgeon.He has my highest respect and gratitude. He gave me back my life which I had lost for several years. Thank you Dr. Denard,you truly are the best at what you do.
