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. Snyder is the best Surgeon and he explains everything that he is doing and he wants what best for you.

Dr Snyder went above and beyond
Dr Snyder repaired my sons knee after another surgeon in the area failed to repair it. Dr Snyder also made a great connection with my son being he was a high level athlete as well. He also was very involved with the rehab which took almost a year.

Dr. Snyder is the consummate professional, however he still very reachable and easy to communicate with. This for me are two of most important characteristics a doctor should have. I am extremely satisfied with both the medical and human treatment provided. Staff is up to par. Highly recommended.

Dr. R. Lance Snyder was able to diagnose and surgically repair my knee that had previously been "fixed" unsuccessfully by another dr. I have had pain for years. I went from hurting daily to feeling only slight discomfort when it rains. I call that a win! All of the staff that work here are friendly and helpful.

Love Dr. Snyder! Great demeanor, I trust his diagnosis, his avoids surgery if at all necessary and helps find great alternatives to try first. He gave me immediate relief from a long time ongoing pain in my knees. I am feeling MUCH better! Sometimes I feel like I am a bit hurried along, but other than that, the staff are all AWESOME!

I would absolutely recommend Dr Snyder. I had a first appointment recently for my knees. He was upbeat and very knowledgeable. I appreciated his prognosis as to how this was going to go. We started conservatively and his treatment has helped a great deal. He suggested exercise to strengthen my knees, which I do daily now in the pool and hot tub. It is making a difference. Thank you for your honest and skillful assessment of my issue. I will see you when they act up again. Don’t go anywhere ??.

Dr Snyder did a fantastic job repairing my knee after a fall. I liked that he begins with conservative treatment and if it doesn't work, only then will he move on to surgical solutions. I have no problem recommending Dr Snyder to anyone in need of a Ortho consult.
