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.

The most Caring Compassionate Doctor you would ever want to meet. Very Knowledgeable, Listens and explains. He did my Hip Revision when no one else would even check it because it wasn't a year out. I am forever Grateful to him. If you need an Orthopedic Doctor he is THE BEST!!

Dr. Puri was wonderful. He was the 4th Orthopedic doctor I went to and the only one who explained my situation fully and actually wanted to help. Everyone in the office was caring and helpful. I wish it hadn't taken me so long to find Dr. Puri but I'm glad I did.

Dr. Puri has been my husbands doctor for 10 years and we think the world of him. He became my doctor after a fall, I would not have thought of seeing any other doctor. He is kind, he listens to you, he talks to you, he is smart, but most of all he is a perfectionist. He is the man you want if you have any orthopedic issues. I sent my other doctor to him and he told me he has seen by many doctors and no one impressed him more than Dr. Puri. When another doctor endorse you, that says a lot.

I had a partial knee replacement (done by another orthopedic surgeon) and it failed. I was referred to Dr. Puri who immediately assessed what was going on with my knee, ordered tests etc. and recommended that I have a full knee replacement. Dr. Puri and his entire office staff are very professional and always takes time to answer questions etc. I never feel rushed in his office. He has a wonderful bedside manner and is always friendly and caring. He takes pride in his work.

I have been a patient of Dr. Puri for three years. My left knee is a candidate for replacement. Rather than rush into surgery, Dr. Puri understands that I have reservations and recommends waiting until I feel it is totally necessary. He is by far the most patient oriented Doctor I have ever dealt with.

It's been over 1 year since Dr. Puri did a total hip replacement for me & I couldn't be more pleased with the results. He was very concerned with my health issues prior to the surgery (diabetes, obese, sleep apnea, multiple Rx meds), which put me in a high risk category. He proceeded with the surgery anyway & the results were better than I expected. His experience, medical background & personal attention to details were very evident. I followed his prescribed professional rehab & feel great

Dr Puri is one of the most attentive doctors I have ever met! He takes the time to listen to all you have to say and will question you further about what you have said and explains what could be causeing the problem and whether or not it is associated to what you came in for! He is very thorough and does care about your overall health and condition! A very polite man who I believe actually cares for the patient's overall well being! His work was flawless and I have never ever recovered faster.

Dr. Puri has a conservative approach towards treatment. However, his surgical skills are outstanding and very effective. He has a great relationship with his patients and is able to fully explain their condition, likely treatment options and probable outcomes. He encourages second opinions in order to assure that he had considered all treatment approaches.

Dr. Puri has done both of my total hip replacements and he is an excellent Doctor. He thoroughly explains the pros and cons of the surgery, gives advise and is also very willing to listen. He is a top notch doctor and I would most definitively not only go back to him, but would feel comfortable referring any of my family or friends to go to him!! He's that good!!!

I had my left knee replaced on 10/12/2105 and my right knee replaced on 12/21/2015. Dr Puri did both procedures. Both procedures went very well and I highly recommend Dr. Puri for knee surgery. My recovery also went well, I turned 60 in Dec.of 2015. I told Dr. Puri on my last visit (March 2016) that I was more active, felt better and was in better shape than when I was in my 40's. My knee replacements have changed my life for the better in so many ways and I have Dr Puri to thank for that.

I had both my knees replaced in a 7 month time frame. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Puri, I felt comfortable with him from the first visit. He does not rush his time with you, he answers all questions in a way that you can understand. He is very concerned about your after procedure care and even followed up with my with a personal phone call after I left a message. I have recommended Dr. Puri to anyone who is suffering with knee issues. He is a marvelous, caring doctor.
