It was such a pleasure meeting Dr. Mark Lieber and his team today. From the moment I arrived, everyone was welcoming, professional, and attentive. Dr. Lieber took the time to listen to my concerns and provided exceptional care with genuine kindness and compassion. I truly appreciated his professionalism, gentle approach, and the excellent care I received from both him and his staff. Thank you for making my visit such a positive experience. Highly recommend! 😊

My visit with Dr. Guarraia was beautiful. I love how Nurse DeeAnna was so beautiful, kind, respectful and educated. She made me feel so welcome. Dr. Guarraia is so awesome. I love his high positive energy. He not only give me good resources but great information about my health as well. I left feeling with good positive information.

My husband went in and saw Clara Jones, PA. She was phenomenal. She reviewed his information and concerns, x-rayed and manipulated the knee and shared all information with him. He was very happy with her exam and treatment plan. Thank you Clara for ensuring this visit was handled thoroughly.

I had a very good experience here. Dr. Odgers repaired my torn bicep tendon. It was my first surgery and I felt informed and supported the entire way. Also, post op, I had ZERO PAIN!!! I think he must have done a great job. Not sure if my results are average but I’m very grateful. All the staff was friendly and helpful too.

Dianne Sales is Dr. Worthington’s PA. She was professional and easy to talk with regarding my shoulder issues. She described what she thought was happening with my shoulders & recommended physical therapy. I look forward to healing my shoulders & getting back to swimming! Thank you Dianne! Paula G.

Was running late for my appointment called to let them know, arrived at 20 minutes late and they had marked as a no show. Receptionist called back to the doctor to see if she could see me and was able to get me in. (Cant be mad as it was my fault…well traffic ate my 20 window of being on time) it would have been easy to make me reschedule and oh well instead took time to get me in. May not happen again but that kindness made my day. Great Receptionist for helping and the doctor and medical assistant were fantastic. Highly recommend.

We were a little overwhelmed by the size, and the amount of patients. However; it quickly subsided when we got in line at the reception desk. We were greeted promptly by a very friendly staff member (Laura?). We registered online so this process was QUICK! We waited in the lobby for about ten minutes. We were brought back about ten minutes before our appointment. Got in and out fairly quickly after spending about 15 minutes with the provider going over the different options.

My visit with Dr. Marshall Hughes was excellent. Unlike many other doctors I’ve experienced, he truly stands out as one of the kindest, most attentive, and personable physicians I’ve encountered. He made all of us feel welcome from the moment we walked in and took the time to genuinely listen to our concerns without ever making us feel rushed. He showed great patience and compassion, especially when addressing my grandmother’s shoulder pain, and provided exceptional care throughout the visit. His professionalism, bedside manner, and genuine concern for his patients are truly appreciated. I wish more healthcare providers approached patient care the way he does—it makes a meaningful difference.

Dr Natanya Mcdonough was incredibly kind and attentive. She listened carefully, answered all my questions, and made me feel at ease throughout my visit. I’ve never felt more comfortable discussing my health concerns. Highly recommend!!!!! “I appreciate how thorough Dr.Natanya Mcdonough is. She listens intently to concerns, asks questions, and explains everything she’s checking during her exam. I’m so glad I found such a great doctor! For Staff “Scheduling was easy, and I was seen quickly. Dr.Natanya Mcdonough was efficient but never rushed. The staff was welcoming and professional, making the whole visit great.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Natanya McDonough. I went to her in pain and with concerns, and she not only helped me professionally, but also supported me as a person—both physically and emotionally. She showed genuine care, attention, and understanding. She took the time to listen to me and explain everything clearly and calmly. Thanks to her, I felt much better and more at ease. An incredible woman and an outstanding professional! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doctor with a big heart and true professionalism.

Megan P. is intelligent, gentle, and an excellent listener. She treats me with empathy and kindness at a time when I am in serious pain. Sierra is fantastic and has a lovely bedside manner. Overall, the staff earns an A+! The office is one of the tidiest and cleanest I have ever seen, and I have very high standards in this regard. I’m grateful and very appreciative. I trust Ortho AZ to provide the best care possible.

Shout out for Megan Powers, Dr Novack’s PA. My 17 y/o son fractured his wrist while playing baseball on a Saturday, we were able to get an appointment first thing Monday morning. We opted for a brace vs cast, Megan said that she had reviewed the x-ray with Dr Novack and proceeded to answered all our questions including return to play and concerns related to healing (growth plate). We followed up with/xrays 3 weeks later and again Megan made ample time to discuss strength and ROM deficits.

Been going to Ortho Arizona for seven years. They are the best! They trulycare about their patients they’re very personable and they take their time to explain your options and procedures. My most recent appointment was with Jennifer and she was helpful and caring

Doctor Justin Wong is a fantastic physician. I drove to the doctor’s office and I was a half an hour late. He didn’t care if I was late.He just let me see him anyway. He told me that I had a choice as to whether I needed surgery or not. We discussed the choices and he explained everything really, really well. I really appreciated everything that he told me. I am a retired RN and I think he is a great dr.

Amazing bed side manner! Very comforting ! She made me feel so relaxed and so nice. She spoke to me like a human not like Dr talk that u couldn’t understand! Will see her from now on!

First time meeting Jennifer Julius and I can’t say enough positive feedback. I was offered several different options for treatment, I felt confident in the treatments available to me. She was very positive and upbeat and I will definitely go back to her again!

Jennifer is absolutely awesome. Her care, attention and interaction with my 92 year old dementia stricken father in law was outstanding. Thank you Jennifer.

This review is provided actually by Carl Hardwick. I found Dr Bruns to be very friendly and knowledgeable and professional. After reviewing x-rays of my knees, he gave the diagnosis and appropriate treatment option. He’s a good listener and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend Dr. Bruns. Everyone at this office was.A+! Thank you for a very pleasant first time experience at this office!

Have had a few visits prior but THIS TIME they informed me of a 3% CC fee for using my card. What?! Not happy & will never go to them again. The surcharge is a BUSINESS DEDUCTION and a customer plus experience. How do I know they don’t charge and right off? You are pushing those convenience fees (for you) as cash costs more to handle as far as time, counting, possible theft. The visit was ok. The doctor gave me enough time to go over my issues(s). the welcome staff was nice. The technician and PA where ok…

Everyone is super nice and knowledgeable. My back has so much better than it was before surgery. Dr. Grisoni was fabulous. Cole has been great in physical therapy. I’m almost done with that and I’m so happy I went here. Their phone system is not user friendly and it is sometimes hard to get ahold of them, but the doctors and staff in the office are wonderful.

Check-in was seamless. Time in the waiting room was under 5 minutes. The nurse asked for a quick history and pulled up the X-ray and MRI. Dr. Bruns asked what my issue was and then listened. He reviewed the X-ray and MRI with me stating he did not think surgery was necessary. He recommended a cartilage and collagen supplement and an arthritis cream. He said if the pain increased a prescription could be prescribed. While encouraging activity, he cautioned me about certain activities. Dr. Bruns was very personable and professional.

Absolutely delighted with my visit to Dr Bruns. First of all, I was able to get an appointment within just a few days, which met my needs. Then I had trouble uploading my insurance information prior to my visit however, the receptionist was quick to take my insurance information and process it during my visit. Then I met with the x-ray technician who was quite personable and I can only assume quite proficient at his job as he caused me zero discomfort, and the x-rays did not need to be retaken. Finally, I met with Dr. Bruns who did the exam and listened to my questions and concerns. He took into account the additional history I provided to him when designing my treatment plan. I can honestly say that in my decades of visiting healthcare providers I have never met a doctor with a better bedside manner than Dr Bruns. Highly and wholeheartedly recommend.

I’m a first-time patient and I can tell that this Extraordinary Team went above and beyond to make sure that I had the BEST customer experience ever and to make sure that I was more than comfortable through the whole process. Carli was more than Amazing, she definitely deserves a front row parking spot out front and I’ll be by next week check> Ha!!! Only because she went above and beyond to make sure that my needs were met with my shattered wrist and I’m definitely going to be going to be recommending her and the Team to all friends and family!!!

Staff was very friendly and helpful. They were very professional. I’ve been to Dr. Odgers before and was extremely happy then and I continue to be happy with him. He was professional and friendly. He even remembered me from 6-7 years ago. I have and will continue to recommend him to people.

She was pleasant, professional, specific, helpful and not trying to push services on me that were not appropriate. She treated me with respect and like an intelligent human being. She got all my orders and paperwork done on the first appointment so I wouldn’t have to chase them down later. That was much appreciated!

I enjoy my appts with Karlene Gonzales she is very patience and sweet. This last visit was great she took her time with the injection and answered all my questions with out me feeling rushed.She was even very understanding with my grand daughter being in the room and asking lots of questions about the process. Thank you Karlene keep with the positive attitude it makes your patients day ☺️

I was really impresse that I got in the same day! Dr Carli was so awesome. Understood my pain and condition and offered the least invasive procedure. I am glad I found her!

Dr Bruns is always friendly, caring and professional. He is a good listener and offers practical solutions to your issues. I would recommend him to everyone.

Staff was down to earth and friendly. Waiting room was clean and comfortable with a killer view. Dr Taylor Ryan was kind, courteous and was willing to spend the extra time listening. It was a pleasant experience.

I recently had a full disc replacement at C6–C7 with Dr. Mark Wang, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very first consultation through surgery and follow-up, everything was handled with professionalism, clarity, and genuine care. Dr. Wang took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all of my questions, and make sure I felt confident moving forward. On surgery day, his team was organized, reassuring, and extremely attentive. My recovery has been going very well, and I’m incredibly grateful for the skill and precision that went into my procedure. If you’re considering cervical disc replacement or spine surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Wang. Five stars all the way.

The whole staff from the front desk receptionist to all nurses were all incredible people. The hospital is beautiful and clean. Food was amazing. Dr. Field my back surgeon did an awesome job. Can’t believe I waited over 30 years of severe everyday back pain to have it fixed. So lucky I found Dr. Justin Field and this hospital. Thanks to all

My original surgery was performed almost 15 years ago. The original Dr Yeung that pioneered the procedure is the one that performed my surgery. At the time I was crawling to the bathroom first thing in the morning and my wife had to put my socks and underwear on. After 6 months of enduring excruciating pain I finally relented and had the surgery. I could not have made a better decision and my life changed dramatically for the better immediately. I’m very careful about not doing anything to re-injure myself and I consider myself very lucky to continue to live a pain-free life at almost 60 years old. I have recommended this Clinic to countless numbers of people and if this review can help just one person it was worth the time to take and write it. Stop searching. This is the right clinic for you in my opinion.

Very impressed with Dr. Marc Wang, his surgical team, the specialty hospital and each and everyone there. DISC is top level. After spinal surgery I was walking straight away, and within 6 days off meds and outside moving. 10 Days walking 2 miles a day with my dog. All pain free from sciatica and numbness. Dr. Wang knows his stuff – don’t hesitate to book a consultation with him and get out of any spinal pain you have.

Dr. Yeung, I thank you deeply for resolving my sciatica pain one year ago. All sciatica pain was gone after the surgery. Originally the pain was so bad I could only stand for 5 minutes and waIk for 10 minutes at a time. I have immense gratitude for your skill, expertise and care, which has helped me return to an active life without pain. I am so glad I was able have you review my situation through your virtual second opinion program and do the Discectomy and Bilateral Hemilaminectomy with you. The DISC staff especially Jennifer PA, Monica and Gabby made me feel well taken care of through out the process!! I was hiking last June for Fathers Day. My core and flexibility are stronger now than before with the help of physical therapists and trainers. I got back to doing physical work last fall and skiing this last winter. Thanks so much!!

Dr. Wang is amazing and awesome and so is his nurse! Wonderful surgeon! I would recommend him to ANYONE! I’m so thankful he was my surgeon! I only have great things to say about him! The only thing is that the phone scheduler who I have had to deal with twice is very unprofessional and rude and this is of no fault to the wonderful surgeons! The phone schedulers are in the “front line” so to speak and unfortunately do not have good customer service skills. I see Dr. Wang in Gilbert, but had to go to the Phoenix office once and the young female at the front desk was unprofessional as well. So if you have a similar experience with the phone schedulers or the Phoenix front desk check-in, please don’t give up on this office! It will be so worth it to see Dr. Wang, trust me!

DISC is by far the only place to go for spine care. We have had two different types of spine surgery done by Dr. Salari and both were completely successful. He is amazing at what he does! I cant say enough about him. The staff are very helpful and kind. Highly recommended

This review is long overdue! After consulting with several doctors over a couple of months, my husband and I met Dr. Abrams and were immediately impressed. He took the time to review my MRI, clearly explained the issues with my spinal cord, and recommended a cervical fusion. While other specialists missed the mark, Dr. Abrams’ diagnosis was spot on. He performed my surgery in November, and the results have been life changing. It has been 7 months, and every day I feel better. My chronic pain is gone, and symptoms I didn’t even realize were connected to my cervical disease have totally disappeared. Beyond his exceptional surgical skills, Dr. Abrams is truly kind. Both he and his wonderful office staff provided amazing support throughout this journey. If you ever need spinal surgery, he is the best. Thank you, Dr. Abrams—my husband and I are incredibly grateful for you.

Dr Abrams Is the kindest and most knowledgeable doctor In his field. He’s patient, takes time to explain to you what’s going on and listens to your needs and when you come out of surgery, you feel like a whole new person. I had my C4 through C7 repaired His confidence made me feel comfortable, and I felt like I was in the best hands. Thanks, Doc.

Office is ran like a well oiled machine. Check in young lady was very pleasant. They called me right away for X-rays. Went in spoke to the MA and then spoke to Nick I think he was a PA who went over my X-rays and then Dr Abrams came in. He introduced himself and thoroughly explained to me what was going on in my back. They have scheduling on site for a CT which was great. The scheduler called me the following day to schedule my back surgery. This office is ran so professionally and is being managed so well I would definitely tell anyone who is in need of a good spine surgeon to check them out. glad I did

Josh Abrams is absolutely amazing and can’t say enough good things about him. He truly cares about his parents and actually listens to your concerns and has a genuineness that shines above any other doctors which speaks volumes to his character and wisdom. The entire team was also absolutely amazing! They’re warm hearted and when walking in to the office they were very helpful and also very caring and compassionate.

My visit to Dr. Abrams was a follow up and as usual was very pleased with both the Staff and the doctor. Checkin was quick and straightforward, a little bit of a delay in waiting time to see the doctor ( gotta expect that in a busy off). I enjoyed my conversation with Dr. Abrams as he honestly listened to me during our exchange of information! I found this visit to be very relaxing compared to some other medical offices I’ve visited in the past.

From the staff, from the MA Freddy and Kevin and Dr Holmes. I am truly grateful to have a great care team. I have been seeing Dr Holmes since 2024 for both of my ankles and where other physicians I seen before I came to honorhealth they couldn’t find out why I was in constant pain. It was x-ray after X-ray. Until the Dr I was seeing for my knee Dr. Maskala she requested a ankle mri and that’s when she referred me to Dr. Holmes. I am truly grateful for him helping me on my journey so I can do what I love the most is walking and being able to enjoy doing hebraic dancing. I recommend Dr. Holmes to anyone who is going through ankle and feet problems.

Dr Darbandi was very knowledgeable and explained all my options to me. I do not feel like he pressured me into a surgical approach or a conservative approach for healing. He gave me the options in a way that made me feel very comfortable and answered all of my questions and I am very thankful to be under his care. I would also like to give a special thank you to Sarah in the office who was wonderful even when I changed my mind causing her to have to undo work that she did, she took the changes with kindness and really helped me out. also a huge thank you to Kevin for helping to get my cast perfect, he listened to my concerns and made sure that I left feeling comfortable.

I had a great experience from the front desk who knew exactly what I was there for to the friendly assistants who took my X-ray and my vitalsto the Doctor who was frank about my condition but listened to my concern and treated me letting me know that that the solution was temporary

Dr. and his nurse were very efficient. I arrived early due to a new location for me. X-ray tech took me early, same with the nurse and the Dr. I was a little anxious about the injection he recommended but he handled it swiftly and explained everything. So far, injection took care of my problem👍🤞

Staff is very nice. Got me in to see Dr. Olsen quickly after breaking my collarbone. Dr. Olsen is very nice. A warming funny personality.

If I could give Dr. Sarari more than five stars, I would. From my very first appointment through surgery and follow-up care, the entire experience was exceptional. I underwent back surgery one month ago, and the results have been nothing short of amazing. I have had zero pain since the surgery—something I honestly never imagined was possible. My quality of life has improved dramatically, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Dr. Sarari is not only an incredibly skilled surgeon but also compassionate, professional, and confident. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and gave me complete confidence that I was in the best possible hands. If you’re dealing with back pain and considering surgery, I recommend Dr. Sarari without hesitation. His expertise has truly been life-changing for me, and I am incredibly thankful for the outstanding care I received.

I have been very happy with this entire procedure/process (Dr Salari, other doctors within the practice, nurses, office staff, Rae White was so helpful, as was everyone involved) They have developed an impressive, will run and well thought through system/process that supports the patient and makes us feel very comfortable. They made sure that I understood every step of the process and had all knowledge that they & I felt was needed. Everyone has had compassion and understanding. I would rate the experience a 10 out of 10. That is saying a lot! Thank you Dr Salari and Team!

Dr. Salari performed a C5-C7 ACDF on me about 7 years ago. A week after the surgery my left upper body cramped up incredibly painfully and it never let go. Dr. Salari provided me with no options whatsoever, instead telling me he sees no problem and everything looks good to him, for a year. On my own, I did PT, dry needling, cupping, massage, rolling, anything to keep my upper body working for 6 years. I went to the CORE Institute and asked if there is anything that can be done. They scheduled a nerve block and a few other tests to diagnose that my C7-T-1 was the problem. They found my C8 nerve root was impinged by the disc when it was removed during C7-T1 ACDF. I immediately felt better and I’m still working to get back everything I lost. I don’t know why Dr. Salari provided me with no options because there were definitely some options that should have been offered to me to save me years of pain. To be fair to Dr. Salari, everyone that has seen an x-ray of my neck tells me what a good job he did with the C5-C7 ACDF. I just hope he follows up on patient post-op concerns better in the future.

This is the best spine practice around. I have referred several people to this group and they never fail to provide amazing results. Dr. Salari is the best – so good at what he does and a great personality as well. I wouldn’t go anywhere else – despite this practice no longer being in network. He works miracles! Being pain free after a visit is the best!!!

Dr. Nima Salari is so professional and knowledgeable. He is amazing. The staff is all friendly and go out of their way to help you. Dr. Salari’s assistant, Lindsay, was very helpful.

Dr. Vogel, Morgan and staff have been a god send. When I saw Dr. Vogel in December of 2025 I found out I have FAI hip impingement. We tried conservative treatments like PT first when that didnt help Dr. Vogel order an MRI and we found a labrum tear as well (which is to be expected with FAI) I decided on surgery since I myself work in a busy orthopedic clinic and am going to be starting my RN clinical rotations in a year. I wanted to be out of the constant pain. My 2 weekz post op went amazingly well. I stsrt PT in a week and am ready to start the healing process. I am not 13 days post op and feeling absolutely amazing. Thank you Dr. Vogel, Morgan and staff for the excellent care.

I’ve been coming to Toca since 2017 and let me tell you what my appointment with Dr. Collin’s was the biggest waste of time and money!! I came to him because my shoulder has progressively gotten worse over the last year since my imaging was done and he literally could have cared less!! I have a tear in my labrum that I’m sure has gotten worse due to the pain I’m experience and all he said was “yeah as we age we get tears, just do these few exercises and if that doesn’t help come on back for steroid shot”! He didn’t request new imaging to see what’s going on. Side note my other shoulder began with the same type labrum tear and that turned into 6 surgeries ending in a replaced shoulder! So now I get to schedule ANOTHER appointment with an ACTUAL orthopedic doctor and throw more money just to actual see what’s wrong with my shoulder!!!! What a JOKE!!!

Fixed my hip a decade ago and gave me some life back. Seem Dr P several times since. Excellent surgeons and providers. The scheduling and such is not as great since banner bought them but I’m not taking points off for being busy. I’m giving points for being amazing surgeons

Too far away for us but easy to get to. The Dr and PA were terrific. Explained to my partner what was going on in his neck and his options. Scary stuff man!

If I could give a half star I would! Scheduled an appointment for my 79 year old mother who is having hip issues. They called me the day before her appointment to let me know that she is past the age limit that they accept! Now, after waiting for this appointment, I have to start over again trying to find her a doctor. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE!

2 1/2 stars. First off, the staff was nice, The PA I saw for less than 5 minutes was nice, and the facility was clean. My low review is because, I was referred by a Banner Urgent care, to a Banner orthopedic, for a right ankle fracture, they told me to see an orthopedic doctor. I made an appointment a week out. I came in today, was called back before I even finished the paperwork, seen also before I finished, sat and finished the paperwork after the appointment ended. Sounds great, but no, I was charged around $257 for this visit that in total took less than 10 min.. seen by the PA in less than 5. They had my X-rays.. are you telling me they couldn’t have called to tell me, you really don’t need to follow up with us, your fracture is so small, you’ll be fine! I mean seriously.. the greed! There was no reason for me to see them, they knew it and still let me come in and charged me. Do better TOCA. Be better.

Would give ZERO stars Dont waste your time or money here, you have better luck going with Ortho Az or another credible ortho office, unless you want the run around from this office full of incompetant people who do not listen to the patients at all, from everyone in the front office all the way to the back, and the providers, they leave people in pain and with more stress and anxiety than they initially came in with.
