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.

I have had 3 surgeries with Dr Mason. They have all been successful. I have complete trust in him. He is friendly and genuinely wants to help you. If I could see him for all of my orthopedic problems I would.

I started seeing Dr. Mason in 2003. He replaced both of my knees in 2004 and my left hip in 2011. I have lost track of the number of people I have recommended to him. They all love him, just like I do. When you are in the exam room with him, YOU are the most important part of his day.

Dr. Mason is thorough and has a great bedside manner. He exhaust all options before he suggest surgery. If surgery is the only option he does a great job. I trust him completely.

Having pain radiating from rt lowerback/hip area. Dr Mason took X-ray and found bone spurs on femur stem (upper leg bone head). Only options are pain injections or replacement. Not bad enough to replace yet. Referred me to Easton Memorial Hospital for Hip Injection. That procedure worked very well with an immediate reduction in pain and improvement in mobility

I have had surgery with Dr Mason. It was successful. I trust him and recommend him. The biggest problem is getting an appointment, starting with the phone system right on through a usual wait of one month for an appointment. This is a very busy practice. Once you get the appointment though, you feel well cared for.

Dr. Mason is very proficient and a good doctor. The practice he's affiliated with leaves a lot to be desired. After receiving injections in both knees, it only gave me about 2 weeks of relief. When I scheduled another appointment the wait time was almost a month. I called to verify my appointment time and waited on the phone over an hour before I got an answer. When I finally got an answer I learned that my appointment had been moved back about 3 more weeks. The wait time is unacceptable.
