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 am Back on my Feet
I had a great experience with Dr. Urban. He did my ACL and I had great outcome. I am back on my feet and I am doing my activities. He is smart and was able to give me my function back. He told me what my expectations were each visit and how much I should start bending my knee. He is an expert when it comes to ACL reconstruction.His Resident, Dr. Arash is phenomenal. I saw him first and he was able to break down the whole process. He described what the surgery was and took his time to make sure I understood what went on. He has excellent bedside manners and is an absolute professional. His confidence that I was in great hands and ability to treat me as a person and not a specimen really touched my heart. He is absolutely pristine all around. I am sure he is learning well from Dr. Urban. Overall had a great experience and will recommend Dr. Urban to any of my friends and family.

Listen Dr. Urban found a calcified piece of broken off bone in my knee using XRAY and MRI readings when my previous Ortho could not, despite seeing the same readings as well as my knee in an abnormal state with his own eyes. Because of this, I have deduced that Dr. Urban knows his stuff and so I recommend him highly. Also, this facility (760 Parkside Ave) is clean and attractive and the staff are professional, well mannered, extremely polite young people! I can't help but question the daily mannerisms during other social interactions of anyone who would call these polite youths rude, "ghetto," or "streetish" unprofessionals.. ...but I have a feeling I already know the answer. Great facility. Busy but easily very recommendable. -T. Mondesir

Disgusting place, dr urban charges his patients to pay to get their workers comp and job forms s fee Of 25-40 dollars to fill out , if you don’t pay you will not get you forms back. The staff is rude ghetto and streetish they are slow and unprofessional manners, they walk out on you when your talking anc they stole a patient insurance card, the patient came back to the clinic and went off. The place is money hungry, who and what clinic you know charges a fee to fill out health forms while we giving them our services, so embarrassing. Please close this place down DOM has to come out and investigate this horrible place, please I encourage no one to come to this dr, dr urban........
