"I am writing to share my highest recommendation for Dr. Petruccelli. Having benefited from his skillI can confidently state that he is at the top of his class and has consistently proven to be an outstanding surgeon. His technical skill and dedication to excellence are truly remarkable. Not to mention a great individual!"

"I was scheduled incorrectly following my son MRI results, which required me to take an additional day off. This was disappointing. I would like to note that both the receptionist and the orthopedic provider were professional and courteous. However, the receptionist appeared to be extremely busy with back-to-back phone calls while also being responsible for checking in patients in person. Additional support may be helpful to ensure provider notes are reviewed carefully and patients are scheduled appropriately. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely,"

"I saw Dr. Evan's for the first time as I fell down 14 steps. I'm a nurse so I knew that I didn't break anything, which is why I didn't go to the ER. However, my concern is if I needed any other supplies and/or instruction being as though my entire leg bent backwards behind my back as I rolled down 14 steps. I had pain in my ankle, knee and hip. I could barely walk. When I limped into the office, no one guarded me or asked if I needed a wheelchair. They also allowed me to limp out as well and I almost fell out of the front door. No one lifted a finger. When I was how I actually got injured, the doctor barely listened. I think I spent 4-5 minutes with him in total. He did NOT perform a full examination. I truly hope that they don't try to bill my insurance company for services not rendered. I left with a referral for Physical Therapy and that's it. I've had many sprains and received crutches for just that. He said I had no restrictions and that I should walk regularly, which was difficult due to the pain. However, I tried it the day that I left the office and my entire ankle swelled up more than it had during the injury. I'm not a doctor but I am an amazing nurse and I can tell you that I am not ok with his treatment plan or the way that his bedside manner was. He definitely gave off a superior attitude. My ankle was also never xray'd even though I requested it, so as of right now, my ankle could actually be broken or has some other injury but he never even examined my ankle. He performed a second of range of motion to my right knee only. I literally broke down and cried in my car in the parking lot because the profession of Medicine has truly changed. I wish there was more compassion, empathy and actual work performed to provide QUALITY care to the patients. ***The best thing about this office is the front desk clerk. She was absolutely friendly and amazing at her job as the first person that you encounter entering the office. I appreciated her. I hope that she sees this"

"Excellent stuff and service. Each individual helped me out and ask the right questions to ease the process of the appointment. I was able to get all the paperwork ahead of time and fill it out. Once I got to the office I was greeted by the front desk. And intake process took less than 5 minutes. I was seen by the medical assistant 10 minutes after I sat down. He was very detailed in his questionnaire. Once the doctor came in we went over a few things and recommended to follow up in a few weeks. Gave a lot of good advice. I hope I can continue seeing this practice grow and advance in the medical field. Highly recommend visiting if you have been involved in a motor vehicle accident."

"Dr. Smink is wonderful. Not only is he my Doctor but he did surgery on my husband many years ago. I would recommend seeing him for your orthopedic needs."

"Dr Evans is a wonderful doctor. He is kind and superbly knowledgeable in his field. He did my knee replacement and I highly recommend him."

"Dr Petruccelli is a phenomenal Doctor! 2 rotater cuff surgeries on two separate shoulders, years later; extremly satisfied!"

"Dr. Petruccelli is a fabulous doctor. His office made room for me in the schedule after a recent injury. With a house full of boys, we've had many occasions to visit his office over the years. He is exceptional - caring and compassionate. Highly recommend this practice."
