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.

Awesome Surgeon
Dr. Romano has always been a professional skilled surgeon. He is quite knowledgeable about his profession. My visit with him is always uplifting and he did both my total knee replacements.

Competent, kind and compassionate.
Dr. Romano performed two very successful surgeries on my wife in her 60's. One was on her knee.She is now able to once again do aerobics for hours at a time.With Dr. Romano heading the Romano Orthopedic Center (ROC), if there's a wobble in your walk, rather than being on shaky ground, you'll be on solid ROC.

As expected
Fell three weeks previous. Waited 2 weeks for appointment. Still having pain in neck, shoulders, upper arms, hips, lower back, knees. Average 7 out of 10. Max 10 out of 10. Did not make me feel he cared much because nothing else is broken. Recommended another month of PT and if still in pain may consider injection. Keep taking ibuprofen and acetaminophen.

Fantastic Practice
The team at Romano Orthopedic is fantastic. All of the doctors, PAs and staff are very attentive to their patients, listening to their needs and taking care of all of the problems. I had an uncommon surgery and Dr. McGann did a fantastic job and followed up via phone a few days later to check on me a couple days prior to my post-op follow up.
