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.

GINA KNEE SURGERY 4 25 25
My name is Gina, I am Very very disappointed, My surgery was on the 25 of April, I still have had NO THERAPY!!! It seems no one can get this scheduled for home therapy. I have insurance, this was not my job to schedule and yet I have had to try and make something happen while worrying about my Diabetes. No Nurse or therapy to look at my leg!!!

First time experience meeting j
When I met him the first time with hip pain I was nervous. He took him time explaining the damage in my hip and explained how total hip replacement surgery would go. I really appreciated that. When I left the office I was an ease. I know that I was in good hands. I’ve got my life back pain free

Hello, we are glad we could help!
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Schlierf?
While he was very friendly, his competency is questionable. I re-fractured my Ulnar bone by merely cutting a piece of meat while in a cast he had put on. Doesn’t seem like this should have been possible if my arm had been cast correctly (he showed me a you tube video of the casting process - I’m convinced so he could see what to do). After 6 weeks of questionable care, I switched to a new doctor who immediately noticed the need to do surgery to implant a plate in the fracture since it wasn’t healing.
