David T. Sowa, M.D.

I’m very happy with my choice

Good person and cares

Dr Sowa is a great doctor

Dr.Sowa is informative and thorough. Excellent surgeon!

He was very nice & made me feel comfortable about a minor procedure.

He has repaired 3 of my fingers and i am very happy. Two were from woodworking accidents and one to remove a cyst. He's no nonsense and very punctual. Today i was in and out in 15 minutes.

Always a pleasure seeing Dr. Sowa, he is informative, warm yet direct! I’m grateful for the corrective surgery he did on my right hand, and look forward to working with him to repair my left hand.

Not much of a talker, lol, but a great doctor.

Treat me like I was nothing didn’t help me with my pain .He was very short with me and his assistant tried to down play my situation . I feel so bad

Very efficient in diagnosis and remediation.

Great physician! Would highly recommend him to others. And his bedside manner has improved LOL!

He waa great

Excellent Dr

He was quick and knew what a patient needs.

Dr. Sowa is very knowledgeable.

Dr. Sowa and his staff were professional and very efficient time-wise. First rate medical service.

Great doctor would recommend him to everyone He is very intelligent have been going to him for years highly recommended

Excellent hand physician. Wait times are extremely minimal. Highly recommend.

Good at what he does!

I like his bedside manner

Excellent, knew what was wrong and hopefully corrected the issue. I was in and out in no time!

Great doctor

Made me feel safe and in well hands

Dr sowa is always a wonderful doctor. I have been his patient for over 20 years. He listens to my issues and always gives me great advice on how to help me with my pain.

He is very efficient and always on time. He understands my issues and explains what he is doing.

Did a great job on carpal tunnel surgery

Dr Sowa is the ultimate professional. He and his staff are the best of any doctor I have ever had.

When I was referred to Dr. Sowa I was warned that his bedside manner wasn’t great. I gotta tell you, I haven’t noticed and the back half staff are fantastic. Plus, answered my questions and provides great medical service. Dude, I had an appointment for 10:10am and I was walking to my car by 10:26.

Excellent doctor and great staff

Top Notch

Dr. Sowa asked several questions, gave me a diagnosis, and suggested a nerve test. It took all of 5 minutes. He also said that if the results of the test indicate surgery then we can do that outpatient. Then he left. He was all business; soft skills could use some sharpening.

The best, hands-down!

I highly recommend Dr. Sowa. He is efficient, open and honest. He answered all my questions without hesitation. Dr. Sowa may not be the “friendliest” he is not a chit-chatter, but he is amazing at what he does. I will choose him anytime for hand, elbow or shoulder.

Great Doc!

Forward and straight to the point. Been going for years and wouldn’t want anyone else.

He is the man!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Sowa’s for many years and highly recommend him.

Great

Exceptional!

I trust Dr Sowa completely he has helped me several times over the years thank you for all your help

Dr. Sowa is the best!

Professional, to the point, explained everything.

WONDERFUL , DOCTOR!!!!!!!

A very good doctor and Sergen.

Very good doctor

He’s the best!

Very professional and clean work but his bedside manners could use a bit of work. But I understand it is busy times and I can only imagine who much he fits in for one day. It’s just overwhelming as a client to experience surgery and not really have things well explained or laid out beforehand. It was a very rushed experience but the work done was great so I can’t complain. His entire team was lovely to work with as well. Especially the nurse I had prior to my surgery, he was amazing and I wish I could thank him!

Doesn’t always give the patient his full attention and listen to what they need to say. He’s in and out of the room too quickly.

He is the best!

Dr Sowa and staff are very concerned for my well being and are always Professional and Caring.

Didn’t get to complete visit because the doctor did not have the Neurologists notes/findings. So I have to reschedule another appointment.

Bedside manner could be a bit friendly. Very competent but brisk. The assistant who removed the splint and sutures was very professional but also friendly.

He has no bedside manner but is a very competent doctor. He speaks low and very little.

Great fiction

Dr Sowa is the best.

Dr Sowa is an excellent Doctor. I had surgery on my wrist a few months ago. I am able to use my wrist easily.

I've been seeing him fir years. He's the very best. Hope he never retires![>7

3rd operation. 3rd SUCCESS Dr Sowa did a great job Could be a little more sociable.

The best we have in DE!!!

Been seeing him for years. Great doctor.

Great doctor

Dr. Sowa is amazing! Always thankful for him and his team.

He is a wonderful surgeon

Dr. Sowa is excellent, as is his staff, including Eric Williams. For the past several years, I’ve been getting shots in my hands for arthritis. When the shots were no longer working in my left thumb, Dr. Sowa performed LRTI surgery on it. I’ve had minimal pain, but I am not comfortable with wearing a cast, but that’s on me. I’ll get through it and I’m confident of the results.

Quick and to the point He answered all my questions

The best!

He is very good and thorough when evaluating the concerns with my hand.

Didn’t feel rushed today and answered my questions.

The only Dr. I would allow to touch my hands. He's not much of a communicator, but he knows what he's doing! Excellent hand Dr..

One of the most efficient doctors I have ever visited . Not only does he exhibit solid knowledge of medicine, he also fosters an environment with good customer service.

Great Dr. but needs to be more pleasant & caring with his patients.

I got in before my appointment time and was on my way home a few minutes later.

Says hello - more than his staff does. Doesn’t make the person feel like they are just a number.

Always on schedule. In and out. Love a dr that is always on time!

Very efficient and effective!

He is knowledgeable, respectful, punctual, and kind. I appreciate the respect for patients time and how well he conveys options and treatment choices.

Great doctor but doesn't listen too much. In a rush to get out of there.

Dr Sowa is great — I’ve gone to him for years, and I trust him completely.

He is the best hand surgeon in Delaware He has taken excellent care of.me for years.

Dr. Sowa took immediate action. Explained my pain and gave much needed treatment. Thank you Dr.

Great doctor , takes time and listens

Dr Sowa is a very good orthopedic doctor.

Fast service with pleasant staff. I was late for my appointment and they took me with no problem.

Great

Dr Sowa is a wonderful hand specialist . I’ve had 2 surgeries on my hands and both worked out very well! I have recommended him countless times for friends and patients that require help with their hands.

Dr. Sowa is very knowledawOffice is

Very happy with everything in your efficient office from the moment I walked in the door. Dr Sowa has always had my respect and today was a continuation of that

Just got stitches out after right side carpel tunnel. I can't wait till I get my left side done.

Rate 0 to 100 110 ok the best won't go to any other dr

Very good at his job takes time to listen and explain what your injury is

Very professional and to the point. Explained my condition very well. Took the needed time. Didn’t rush. Very nice

Nice meeting Dr. SOWA, GREAT MANNERS, LISTENS WELL. GOT RIGHT TO THE MATTER AT HAND. MADE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING

Friendly staff & Dr Souza & his associate were very helpful in dealing with my hand issue. Good experience.

No time to ask questions. Out the door before you know it.

Very thorough and professional

Top Notch as always!!!

Could smile more 😁

In and out. I trust the man completely

No nonsense, to the point, quick and efficient professional.

Thorough, knowledgeable and explained my issue very well.

He is always an excellent Dr. We moved to a retirement home in PA…almost an hour an half away but when we need him we still go to him.

Always does a great job. Did not have to wait either.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Sowa now for several years with regard to arthritis in my hands. He is knowledgeable, professional, and efficient

This was my first time. He was professional and made me feel comfortable. It was a excellent experience.

Dr. Sowa is great Dr. Who takes time to do the best for his patients. Excellent person who cares

Bedside manners need work... talking with patient is minimal at best.

Outstanding surgeon! l appreciate his help, guidance and support. Back in September my wrist was not set properly “ another location”. Him and his staff had me in surgery with in two days. Today, thanks to his immediate response, my wrist will make full recovery. Looking for a great Doctor? Look no further.

Great Doctor! Staff I’d very friendly.

Great Doctor

Dr. Sowa is a true professional! He is an excellent surgeon and instills confidence in his patients that he is extremely knowledgeable and caring. He is a great hand surgeon.

I've been a patient of Dr.Sowa's for decades. He's always professional and he and Eric Williams (his surgical assistant) work together seamlessly. He's surgically excellent, concerned about your personal outcome from his treatment and/or surgery and what more do you want?

Was a great appointment. Dr. Sowa new exactly what my problem was and took care of it.

Very efficient and knowledgeable

Very fast

Dr. Salah is an exceptionally skilled surgeon and extremely knowledgeable practitioner. I always recommend him from anyone that has any needs for assistance with their hands.

I have seen Dr Sowa for over 20 years now he is a great orthopedic specialist.

Professional and thorough. He explained options for treatment and a path forward.

He is a great doc!!!

Amazing

Doctor Sowa is the best!

Dr Sowa is the best. He keeps my 74 year old hands playing golf and tennis.

Quick and efficient

Immediate diagnosis and recommendation

This is not the first time I have seen Dr. Sowa throughout the years. He has previously performed surgery on my right arm and just recently treated a problem on my left hand. He is an amazing doctor and surgeon and I absolutely will not see anyone but Dr. Sowa for any hand, wrist, elbow or shoulder need.

Great surgeon. Subpar bedside manner. Office staff seems unhappy.

I’ve had 4 surgeries performed by Dr Sowa and the results have been fantastic. And, the staff at the surgery center have been great. I highly recommend.

Dr. Sowa has what's known as poor bedside manner. He exhibits weak communication skills & a lack of empathy & patience. I wonder how they got him to look into the camera & smile for his official staff photo. He never smiled nor looked directly at me once during our meeting. He seemed incapable, also, of indicating that he'd received the information I was sharing with him about my medical issue. He was impatient with the fact that I couldn't describe my pain exactly. Gee, sorry, doc, that my injury didn't produce a textbook example of physical consequences. If only I'd been able to cite a page number... I would like to have asked him what exactly he thought was going on with my hand, but he left the room before I had the chance. Dr. Sowa has a reputation as a good surgeon. Maybe he should stick to the ER & hire someone with good communication skills to to interact with the patients for him. His current assistant is practically a clone of him, so they'd need someone new.

Diagnosed, explained and provided treatment path for my hand issue in first visit. Excellent doctor and very friendly and efficient supporting staff

very good listened to me and took care of my problem fast

First Rate!

In his field of expertise I always seek his knowledge, advice and treatment. He is a good man. To meet him you would understand any further comments would be superfluous.

Dr was able to see me next day. Took time to ask about my pain and offered x-ray. He was right I'll need surgery.

Very thorough and focused on patient care

Dr Sowa is a good surgeon and I trust his expertise but I wish he was a bit more friendly I would like to tell him why I am getting my thumb joint fixed and just a few words wouldnt take very much of his time But I respect him as an excellent surgeon so that’s it

He is very professional and thorough and has repaired broken bones for me twice with great success. I would and do recommend him and his team to everyone.

Always courteous and listens to complaints.

He knows his stuff. Just not chatty

The Pain is gone ɓùt it still pops

Carefully explained situations and care plan

He’s just the best. Gentle and understanding.

I love Dr Sowa and always have since the first day I became a patient. What I mean by love is as a patient I respect his professionalism, knowledge, kindness, and the ability to get right to the point. He is so great at his abilities to help others get the best up to date treatment. My only worry is I selfishly hope he doesn’t retire as it would be impossible to replace such a doctor with so much knowledge such as Dr Sowa ! I am so grateful.

Exceptional care and compassion

As a new patient, I was expecting a consultation and that I would need to return for any procedure. Dr. Sowa was pleasant and he performed the minor procedure during my visit. That’s customer service at its best. Thanks Dr. Sowa and I pray you have amazing 2024!

Dr Sowa saved my arm 20 years ago from a pysteria bacterial infection that I got from the rocks at Indian river inlet fishing so I have confidence in his professional experience. He is the best!

Love Dr. Sowa’s expertise and surgical skill!

Good doctor!

Felt rushed. His Assistant answered questions because Dr. flew out of the room

Great doctor

Very thorough and professional

Excellent surgeon!

He's the best in the state. Wouldn't trust anybody else.

After ordering an xray & examining my wrist, Dr Sowa knew exactly what was causing me pain. He injected my wrist & instructed me to call if I continue to have pain after 3 weeks.

Felt comfortable with the doctor. Explained my issue

Very serious, but in a 👍 good way! David and entire staff have been my best physician's practices I have ever used. Thank you. Happy Holidays to entire staff and the many physicians who have their practice at Orthopedic Consultants!

As always, Dr. Sowa was efficient and professional. He’s very kind and supportive

Dr. Sowa is prompt and courteous. I see he has a great smile too! He’s familiar with my case and he personally called me after a recent surgery. This level of care drives patient loyalty & appreciation. Thank you Dr. Sowa!

Polite kindness take time with patience

Provided printout about a new condition. Provided reassurance that injection was warranted. More personable than previous visits. Thank you. Always punctual!!!

Dr. Sowa is the best hand doctor and very nice and professional.

Dr Sowa is awesome!! I never have to wait for him to see me and if I do it’s less than 5 mins!!!

Dr. Sowa is the best of the best for hand doctors.

Second CMC joint arthroscopy.(1st was left hand,this is right hand ) Answered all my questions.

Dr Sowa is top notch. His staff is excellent. If only more service providers were more like him and his office. I highly recommend him.

He’s just like I remembered him 20 years ago. Can’t get any better than Dr. Sowa

All the staff were very nice and pleasant. Dr. Sowa answered all of the questions that I had. He was very nice and attentive.

So dependable and smart.

Experienced and efficient!

Very professional, very kind. He is the best. I trust him and his advice on how to proceed with my broken wrist. Would never want anyone else helping me through this.

Dr. Sowa is an excellent surgeon

Extremely efficient office.

Awesome caring doctor.

Very thorough in explaining what is causing my pain, what he intends doing to relieve pain and range of motion issues, an excellent doctor whom I trust beyond explanation!

Professional and helpful

Too curt. Expected more explanation. Shot is working.

Quick on the trigger. (Finger that is) Get's me back to work in a hurry

Dr Sowa is the best!

Dr Sowa and Eric are the best!

Dr Sowa is the best of the best.

Great

I am very happy with my treatment and Dr. Sowa is very caring and professional. I was somewhat intimidated when I first met him but have since come to be very comfortable with him. I highly recommend him.

Fast n efficient service

Dr Sowa is excellent. You feel confident in his diagnosis as he explains the issue and the probable causes. Knowledge and experience makes the difference!

Outstanding as always

He did his observation of my injury and worked out a plan for my recovery quickly. The best part was his staff and how they all listened as well as the doctor, paying attention to everything I said.

Excellent service by office staff as well as the doctor of course.

Everyone is great. Love 1st state ortho

Great experience with everyone. Entire appointment was efficient and Dr Sowa was terrific.

Good doctor, but not so great bedside manner.

I wish I could pick zero stars! Rude and dismissive. Don't waste 2.5hours of work, like I did, to see this creep.

Dr. Sowa’s bedside manner leaves a lot to be desired. I asked a couple of questions multiple times because he originally ignored me asking, but after repeating he then fluffed off my concerns and downplayed my issue. He also left and came back a couple of times. Did not feel like my appointment time was my time with the doctor. I definitely did not feel heard or that I was a priority.

Unfortunately I met him because I broke my wrist. He was wonderful in the office and I felt so safe and cared for that I wasn’t even worried about having surgery.

Trust him completely!

Awesome doctor very informative.

Caring, kind, listens, & doesn’t waste any time!

He’s absolutely the best! He’s very professional and his staff is very caring.

I've been seeing Dr Sowa for years for my hands. He is excellent in his expertise. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my care. The staff is excellent too. Always great experience from check in to check out. Thank you First State Orthopaedics@

Good doctor!

Got right in and out! Wish all my doctors appointments went that way. Very professional and to the point

AWSOME

Great Doctor...nice person.

Always helpful. Quick and easy.

Dr Sowa is one of the few doctors that I go to that makes me feel better within hours of when I see him. His injection hurts a little but the end result is worth the pain.

Love Dr Sowa! So stoic that it makes me laugh! Eric is great!

0 personality and completely condescending.

Quick and professional

Dr Sowa is the best. He is quick to determine what the problem is and identifies possible solutions. He is very prompt for appointment times.

Very thorough and professional

Very professional

Very intelligent and efficient. Obviously the best in the field.

Quick and effective

Did not fully address the problem. Very limited information regarding the pain and how to manage it. Poor communication skills. Very abrupt, did not seek any patient feedback.

The Best !!

I feel very confident in hom.

Very kind man!

Dr. Sowa is the kind of professional every patient should have in his or her corner.

Dr Sowa is a true professional and very thorough. He explained everything thoroughly and answered all my questions. He personally put my cast on my broken wrist and showed me the x-ray with the metal plate and screws .

A professional and skilled Surgeon and two weeks post surgery, my arthritic thumb looks and feels normal again. I'm so glad my Rheumatologist referred me to Dr. Sowa.

Dr.Sowa is a great hand surgeon and knows what he is doing. He recently just did surgery on both of my hands.

Fast and efficient service.

Although he has an excellent reputation, I did not care for his manner. He was abrupt and somewhat patronizing. I will probably seek a different hand surgeon if or when necessary.

He was very professional. My appointments have been timely each visit.

Not friendly. Short with me when I asked questions Didn’t explain recovery process. Treated me like an object Unacceptable attitude

Dr. Sowa is grumpy and not very communicative. I didn’t feel comfortable asking questions. My appointment felt rushed. I was able to ask the nurse follow up questions, but I didn’t ask everting I wanted to ask, because I didn’t want to take up a lot of her time.

Professional Doctor & patient service Thank You

Always satisfied with his prognosis and recommendations.

Excellent surgeon. Plated my broken hand and it healed wonderfully with PT. Would’ve liked more of an explanation of my issue and surgery details upon initial consult. But overall great experience for my first serious ortho issue.

Dr. Sowa is the best!

Great he makes you feel so comfortable and is so knowledgeable thank you for helping me

fast and efficient. wonderful!

One of the best doctors I have ever had! He has helped me so much over the years. I highly recommend him.

He is the best!

Dr. Sowa barely acknowledged that I was there. No hello and when done giving me a shot just mumbled some answer to my question and walked out. His colleague (a different doctor, did not introduce himself) was much more informative and caring.

My appt was quick and fast but thorough. The staff is very nice but the Doc doesn't give a greeting very well.

Does not take time to educate on diagnosis. Did not ask symptom questions? No discussion of treatment plan, just assumed my symptoms based on “looking” at xray and hand.

I really respect the care that Dr Sowa provides. He listens to my concerns and treats appropriately.

Be more of people person.

He’s a great doctor.

Level of service is excellent.

Super professional and to the point

Was treated kindly and professionally by all. Dr Sowa is Tops!

Great doctor No complaints

A good doctor; but he is a man of few words.

Very direct and let’s get it done type of doctor. Love it

Doctor Sowa is an amazing doctor! Explained everything very well and made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend him!

Very good experience

Always very happy with the doctors and staff at FSO! They are a great group of people!!!

A man of few words!!!

Very professional

Needs to take more time explaining and answering questions

Very knowledge and communicates diagnosis and treatment plan in plain english so I can clearly understand. He is very sharpe and punctual and there is no “bs” about him.

Great job and very personable.

Dr. Sowa is very professional and competent but could some some more personality, could take a lesson from Dr. Bodenstab.

Dr. Sowa always takes the time to explain everything. Always polite and professional. The office staff and his assistants are always kind and helpful.

Very good doc. Not Much bedside manner, but great doc. Knows his stuff

Awesome!!!!!!

Dr Sowa is very thorough and truly cares about picking his patients feel better. I have had two different surgeries with Dr Sowa and they have been very successful thanks to his expertise.

On time, pleasant, clear in explanation of the problem and the solution.

Wonderful, professional and sympathetic!

I would have liked a printout of the instructions and expectations he gave me verbally. I did not correctly remember on which hand I hand same procedure done over a year ago. He made feel like an idiot because of it. A softer reminder would have been better taken. Abrupt. Hurried.

Very professional. Bedside manner could be better

Dr. Sowa and Eric Williams are the BEST!!! WONDERFUL care & concern for their patients!! FSO is blessed to have them a part of their team as healthcare providers!!!

Great Dr needs to work on his bedside manner it’s awful. Makes you feel like you are always bothering him he needs feedback

It was good he sent me to Rise toget a splint put on immediately after my appointment.

Quick and resolved my small issue on my elbow.

I keep coming back, and always put my full trust in Dr. Sowa and his staff!

Great job on my carpal tunnel surgery!

He's wonderful

I had seen & treated by Dr Sowa approx. 14/15 yrs ago. So I kinda knew what kind of physican he was. I’m seen by another Dr in First State Orth at a different location for my hips & knees & have since 1985. Even though both of them are in the same group they both different personalities.

10

Not patient friendly. Walked out on me when I was trying to ask a question.

Dr. Sowa explained clearly and was very professional

Dr. Sowa was very professional, knowledgeable & made me feel very relaxed.. Dr Sowa came nightly recommended to to me by other patients and I am very happy I took their advise..

Great job.

It felt a little rushed but outside of that it was fair, nice guys id go back of I had too for sure

Dr. Sowa is exceptional. Just do what he says and you should be good.

Fell on ice fx’d my LT wrist. Was lucky that Sr Sowa was my surgeon. Very pleased with my results!

I have been going to Dr. Sowa for several years for arthritis in my hands and I highly recommend him to all my family and friends

Awesome Doctor !!!

Great Dr

Was in and out very quickly and felt comfortable with diagnosis. Staff was friendly and prompt.

Very good indeed.

Dr. Sowa was in & out in 3 seconds tops to look at my incisions, said it looks good & was gone that quick. He really needs to be more personable & companionate. Take more one on one time with his patients & ask if they have any questions or concerns & how they may be feeling.etc…

Dr. Sowa is an awesome doctor and surgeon. He’s performed six surgeries on my hands which have really helped me out. I’ve recommended numerous family and friends to him. I’m even able to get him to smile and socially talk some times. Thanks for helping me out today Doc. 😊

Great surgeon.

Explained the issue. Hopeful the solution works.

No nonsense. Quick and professional!

Dr. Sowa is excellent in all respects. Personable, knowledgeable, professional and skilled.

Excellent

Didn’t even get a hello from the Dr.. Eric was amazing and personable

Dr Sowa is a true professional. He is conscientious, thorough and knowledgeable. I appreciate his serious bedside manner. Mary S Casey

He was short and to the point with my finger injury as well as with my treatment plan.

Fantastic doctor and all staff was pleasant as well!

I think this picture is the only time I've seen him smile..

Love Dr. Sowa - SO Knowledgeable, very skilled, gets you in and out right on time. I have never gone to one of those appts and had to sit and wait forever.

Great surgeon

Excellent care

Very knowledgeable.

Later surgery 2023

Great doctor!!!

Luckily I have a personal connection with Dr. Sowa because he knows and went to school with several of my handbell friends. He has performed many surgeries on me!

4 years still no diagnosis and I get to start pt I’ve already done again

Always listens to your issues treats accordingly have long earned respect for Dr Sowa & Eric

Excellent care by Dr Sowa and Eric

Good surgeon but no bedside manner whatsoever. Would not go to him again.

Dr Sowa may be an intelligent doctor who knows his craft but his manner is cold, unfriendly and unwelcoming. I felt rushed and his explanation of my ailment was hurried with not much opportunity to ask questions. The front desk staff person was also unwelcoming. Sorry she had to do her job. The X-ray technician was the nicest of all. I will be going elsewhere and will not recommend this practice.

He took time to explain my surgery and how it went. I appreciated the time.

Glanced at incision.said it was ok,and walked out in less than one minute.

Precise and to the point. He asks questions to understand your situation

He is very direct and to the point. I like that. I feel very confident in his treatment and have suggested him and 1st state to anyone needing a recommendation.

Excellent patient care.

Incredibly talented hand surgeon!

Dr Sowa as always was excellent!

He is professional in his field but he did not make me feel welcome, as I was his new patient. He kind of rushed me through telling him my symptoms then out the door he goes. He examine me so very quickly. The gentleman that fitted me with the hand braces was very patient. Dr Sowa should have told me he was in a hurry. I would have understood.

Excellent surgeon.

I've been a patient of Dr. Sowa's for years. He cares very much for his patients even though he doesn't always show it during office visits. He's a wealth of knowledge on hand issues and has excellent surgical technique and judgment. His surgical assistant, Eric Williams, is the best. They are a great team.

Very professional, knowledgeable and efficient. His assistant, Eric was a pleasure to work with.

very professional and kind

I had my first visit with Dr. Sowa today. I was very impressed about how he was truly concerned about my hand issue. I seen where he went above and beyond for my care. Thank you Dr. Sowa. Please keep up the excellent work!!!

He didn’t make me wait too long and was very efficient during the assessment

He is very good and talks so you know what he is saying.

He’s the best!

Left feeling good

Such a nice person.

Very cordial and explained the procedure very well.

Dr Sowa is brilliant surgeon!

Dr. Sowa is my favorite doctor. He is wise and kind. I am very thankful for him and his amazing team!

Very thorough

Thank You❤️🙏🏾

Love how he’s very consistent abut his patient’s great doctor

I like that Dr. Sowa is straight forward.

Office staff and Dr. Sowa were very accommodating. I forgot my medical records and they allowed me to go home to get them and see me right away instead of rescheduling me!! K

In and out in 20 minutes, very good visit.

Great@

He’s the best! Very knowledgeable, always on time and gets to the point quickly.

Dr. Sowa could be a more compassionate and caring doctor. His bedside manner definitely needs improvement!

He's a very caring doctor and general I recommend him to anybody

Dr. Sowa is a very efficient, no nonsense orthopedic doctor. His office runs very smoothly and the staff is excellent.

You are the best.

Very disappointed- have used Dr. Sowa many times it a hand problem- is always somewhat abrupt but yesterday was a first— didn’t give enough time or showed an interest in new issue-

Excellent visit, so professional

Excellent care as usual

Very pleased, with him and staff.

No bedside manner at all. Makes you feel like you are bothering him

Approachable. Very nice

Great doctor

Dr Sowa is one of the finest doctors I have had. He is thorough, explains wells and has expertise. Without a doubt 5 stars.

Very good. Clean and neat. He operated on my elbow (2006) once and helped me with triggerfingrr on at least 4 of my 10 fingers. All results have been excellent.

Wonderful,, No wait time,, Friendly staff,, Dr Sowa is a miracle worker..

Dr. Sowa is an excellent doctor! Straight to the point and treats the impaired limb, joints or areas right away. I refer him to all my friends. 👍👍

Knew what was wrong within 30 seconds. Knows what he is talking about

As always with Dr. Sowa there is no wait. He is always on time and you get in and out quickly.

Dr. Sowa is the very best at what ever he does for you. Serious and dedicated.

The best. In and out.

Sweet relief

Outstanding doctor with great staff!

All ways give great service

Doctor Sowa is incredibly amazing! He is thoughtful, kind and has a gentle quiet nature. He is extremely knowledgeable at what he does and the top surgeon in the area. I strongly recommend this doctor!

None right now

Thank You to Dr. Sowa for an excellent surgery to my right hand.

Dr Sowa knew exactly what was wrong and exactly how to help the pain. I have a lot of confidence in him.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Sowa for years and love that he knows what he’s doing and gets right down to business.

I trust Dr Sowa's care.

Greatly appreciate that Dr Sowa is on top of scheduling and there is no wait time. Extremely skilled. Best of the best in assessing and treating injuries.

I was out of there in 30 minutes today. Him & Eric put cast on my wrist fast.

Dr Sowa is knowledgeable and competent. I appreciate the care he and his staff have given me

Tells you the facts and what you need to do for your physical problem. No BS. Very pleasant.

Thanks Dr Sowa,

He was continuing h to all to his assistant about my issues. Not talking directly to me. I had to ask him several times what the meaning of his discussion was with her..He wasn’t very personable at all. Wanted in and out. I will wait for my results then I am switching doctors. ASAP .

He is an extreme professional. And he knows what he is doing and what is needed for your care. I wish though, that he would slow down a bit, and explain the reasons for the diagnosis that he made and the why's of it. We are lay people and don't have that knowledge. Simply asking "what questions do you have?" And sitting in silence while the person formulates a question, goes a long way. Maybe there isn't time for that for him, but he could turf questions to someone else. I adore him for his knowledge and skill, and wouldn't go to anyone else. Just would rather not get my info from Dr. Google.

Always caring, professional and informative. Has performed two prior surgeries on me with great success.

Easy going (now)

Very patient and explains the process for the surgery. Checks on status of other areas of concern.

Always provides excellent care

Very professional and always prompt. Was very encouraging post surgery visit today and set expectations for continued improvement and healing timetable.

Wish he was a little more personable.

Many thanks !

Dr Sowa staff ask questions to understand work and design splint for tasks. I use a keyboard all day so splint was on top of finger so bottom of finger could type. Doesn’t set up unneeded apts, only come back if condition reoccurs.

Didnt get what I needed or any resolution other to repeat the same test I had less than a year ago..

Excellent as always

Very efficient experience.

I like dr sowa. A man of few words but does what he is suppposed to.

Appointment on time and professional servic

He is very professional but also takes time with his patient.. I completely have faith & trust in him being my surgeon

Excellent care! Thanks Doc!!

Very professional and personable.

He is great. Always professional and on time.

I love him, he’s great! Wouldn’t want anybody else operating on my hands!

Very detailed and informative Just saw him today 10/19. Scheduling soon

Dr SOWA is an AWESOME doctor! I am so grateful for having him operate on my hand. Being pain free being able to have to recovery is wonderful! I am Blessed to have him as my hand specialist!

Great job explaining the procedure and answering questions.

As always the office of Dr Sowa is very efficient.

We always thought he was the best and have always sent many people to him.

Very knowledgeable, right to the point and asked me questions about my condition.

Very happy with my experience

Very friendly, listens and explain everything.

I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

Excellent surgeon

Before I can get questions out about his diagnosis the doc was gone. I would’ve liked time to discuss what I could do to improve my situation or prevent my problem from escalating

Great surgeon!

Very good and he took time to explain the x

Lacks bedside manner but a good physician.

He and Eric are the best. Always make you feel welcomed and they truly care how you are doing.

Very pleased with his work very patient I'm glad I got a chance to meet him

Absolutely the best!

Dr. Sowa and staff have always been excellent and professional in everything they do. Dr Sowa has always taken his time to explain what medical condition and the proper treatment. I would highly recommend him.

Same as previous ratings.

Dr. Sowa has performed two surgeries on my hands. The first was a carpal tunnel release and a tendon transfer on my right hand. The second was a carpal tunnel release on my left hand and a trigger finger release on my left thumb. He’s an excellent surgeon. I highly recommend him.

Great doctor. Great service.

No doubt he is experienced in his field, but he doesn’t have any bedside manners, he doesn’t give any eye contact. During my interaction with him, his face was down looking at the paperwork. My appointment was at 0930am and I got back to my car at 0930am.

He is very good at what he does, the best! Would recommend him to everyone.

Great Doctor!

Got in and out no waiting perfect for my schedule

Very good

Best arm/hand doctor in the area. Or the state.

Very pleased with my visit. The doctor explained my x-rays and where the problem was. I was given a shot of cortisone.

Really good assessment of the problem.

Dr. Sowa is a no nonsense medical professional. He tells you the way it is and what to expect.

He is the finest!!! And Best! Hadn’t been treated by him in several Years but he remembered me and my previous situation! He quickly got me X-Rayed, diagnosed the problem, explained the results and treated it promptly . Quick, to the point, informative. I didn’t feel I was being rushed, treated very professionally and politely by all. (His assistant and the X-ray tech were great too!

Dr Sowa is thorough and fast about getting you in and out. Appreciate his thought process.

A little behind schedule, but performed two injections on right index finger and fatty part of thumb! Neither helped 😕

Very professional. Very thorough.

Doctor sowa is an excellent doctor

Very responsive to my needs. The shot was not too painful

Dr. Sowa is a great doctor. I just wish he would take a few minutes to get to know me as his patient.

Dr. Sowa went beyond my initial symptoms, asking questions to get to the root cause of my problem. He set me up for additional tests prior to any treatment. Well done, Doc!

Very knowledgeable and felt great confidence in him.

Seemed a bit rushed/disinterested today.

Right to the point and wastes no time.

Great doctor, very knowledgeable and very efficient in fixing my aching wrist thanks dr. Sowa

This highly-skilled Orthopods is extremely good at his job. He is also kind, caring, and punctual. Hat’s off to Dr. David Sowa!

Fast and efficient. Great first visit.

Dr. Sowa is an excellent orthopaedic doctor whose reputation as the best hand specialist in DE is well deserved.

Been with Dr. Sowa for almost 3 decades now. He knows his stuff and mediocrity won't do..he does his very best..every time!!

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Sowa. I’ve never done anything like this before and he really put me at ease through this whole process.

Very efficient and thorough.

An expert in his field and is someone I truly trust.

First time meeting Dr Sowa.Felt confident in care

Brought me back to 100% from my accident. Never minced words and told me exactly what I needed to do and when. Gave me timeframes and was even ready to go to bat for me. Amazing doctor, amazing man.

Dr. Sowa is impressive. His knowledge and skill is reassuring. I know I can trust all that he says and does.

Fast, efficient, and effective!

Always on time & knowledgeable!

Excellent experience. Dr. Sowa, Eric and all the team are wonderful, helpful, and caring.

Very thorough! Very pleasant. Highly recommend!

Very efficient and always on time

A good doctor and very nice and pleasant.

Very proficient! Knew exactly what my issues were and resolved them!

Excellent surgeon and diagnostician. Very caring towards his patients and concerned about his surgical outcomes, although he's not warm and fuzzy during his office visits. Utmost confidence in this doctor and his assistant, Eric Williams.

Excellent and exceptional doctor. Overly pleased with my appointment and treatment!!!

Very professional

Very fast diagnosis and treatment

He was on time & we can do the temporary shot then in 3 months I could have the surgery. Since I can’t get the stitches wet so I’d rather wait until after summer. He such a good Doctor that listens to what I have to say too.

dr sowa was very efficient and to the point with my visit

The best has been my doctor for last 15 years always good with me and takes care of all my health problems

Saw me right away. Was very professional!

Excellent experience

Everyone was outstanding. Thank you. Mr. Lear

Pleasant, quick diagnosis of my trigger thumb. Discussed treatment and how long it will take to heal. A++ Orthopedist.

to the point, answered all questions and got the job done!

Thorough, Very Knowledgeable, Professional

No nonsense...he gets right to it.. best dr ive seen!!!!

Dr. Sowa is clearly skilled and knowledgeable. Now that I have seen him several times he is a bit more communicative and is paying more attention to what I say.

Dr. David Sowa and staff are “AWESOME!!!” They’re patient, kind & attentive to patient’s needs.

He keeps me playing sports at 70+

Good bedside manner. Good listener. Knowledgeable , friendly.

Great doctor!

I was sent an email asking for a rating: Dr. Sowa is professional and straightforward, which I like. He did exactly what he said he was going to do and so far everything has been good.

Exceptional. No nonsense. Get the job done. 2 successful surgeries. Thanks

Disappointing. Not a great communicator; kind of short and gruff in answering my questions.

Smartest surgeon I know!!

On time. To the point. Understandable.

Very efficient. Aways professional. Explains everything from start to finish.

Very nice and knowledgeable in his field. I would send my friends to him without hesitation. Thank you.

Hes so nice and hes quick fast and in a hurry!!!!

Bedside manner could use a little improvement but all other aspects excellent.

Dr. Sowa fit me into his schedule, saw me promptly and was extremely informative about what he is going to do to fix my finger and what I can expect to see and feel after surgery. This is my second surgery with him and the previous one was very successful!

I wasn't happy it took me so long to get an appt. but I was willing to wait because I knew Dr. Sowa is the best. and I am happy to say he was able to treat my problem right away.

Best In the Nouth East and south

Didn’t seem to

Dr. Sowa and staff are always professional, friendly and helpful regarding my treatment.

Very professional and courteous.

Fast, courtious, great outcome

Thorough and knowledgeable

First time in the office. Dr. Sowa was friendly and explained what I needed to know. He gave me the needed treatment promptly and I was on my way. Overall, a very positive experience.

He’s excellent!

Dr. Sowa was on time, I had an X-ray in office which wait was only a few minutes and he was right back in office to explain results!

good service. needs work on bedside manner.0

Knowledgeable and to the point.

Fast, kind, thorough!

I feel a very high level of confidence with Dr. Sowa.

Always a gentleman!o

Dr Sowa....very thorough. Pleasant. Patient in answering my questions. The wait to be seen was short.

Awesome! The staff worked together seamlessly. Dr. Sowa took time to explain my situation.

I have been coming to Dr sowa for many years. I will come back again and again.

Dr. Sowa is a fantastic doc. He's a no fuss kind of doctor. He is thorough, explains everything so you can understand it. Superior surgery skills as well! I won't see any other hand specialist!

Didn’t take the time to listen to me.

Wonderful Dr and I would highly recommend him.

Very nice and knowledgeable.

Wish he would have explained the procedure before executing it.

I never felt welcomed by him. Has terrible bed side manners. I would not recommend him to anyone. He needs to be a little more friendly to his patients. Our first meeting was a nightmare because I have a hearing problem and he got very frustrated with me because I could not understand him talking with that mask on. He would not even give me any eye contact.

He did nothing for me to relieve my pain and stiffness.. This doctor has terrible bedside manner, and I would have rated him 0 if I could. He shouldn't be working with people.

n/a

Dr. Sowa’s demeanor was cold and impersonal. No bedside manner at all,just routine

Waiting time in office minimal.

No wait. Quick analysis of my sore thumb and 2 fingers and a quick solution. Got 5 shots in my joints and out the door in 10 minutes. His staff in great too. He has been my hand doctor for bout 10 years. I like the way his total team works.

Been a pleasure very nice very pleasant In-N-Out looking forward to surgery thank you very much may the Lord continue blessing you

He had operated on my left hand so I came back to him for my right hand. Excellent doctor!

Confident and professional.

Great job

I trust him as a surgeon. Been there a few years ago.

Best ever!

A man of a few words but excellent with a scalpel....

Excellent care.

Dr. Sowa is an excellent hand Dr. He tells you what the problem is and how to fix it.

Super Nice & quick to the point. Had me in & out which was awesome.

Talked too fast and mumbled. Was unclear of what he would be doing prior to sticking needle in hand. Other doctor in the room more professional and took time to explain things, but only after the procedure and Dr. Sowa left the room.

Excellent! Like him alot! Hardly sny wait as well!

On top of the game! I trust him to give the best possible care.

He was friendly and clear.

He’s always very patient and trustworthy. Great bed side manner

Dr Sowa was thorough and diagnosed my issue quickly.

He is very knowledgeable and understands his patience

Was taken back quickly. Identified TX options and implemented within 15 minutes.

Great Physician ??

Dr Sowa is top notch on his field! He really knows what he is doing. He is an excellent hand surgeon now if you want someone to talk to you for half an hour that’s not him. Of course he will answer all your questions. But you will definitely be delighted to have him as your surgeon!

Fantastic surgeon

Always on time and efficient. Very kind!
