He has a great bedside manner and is very thorough with his examination. He explains things very well and makes you feel comfortable. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking wrist and hand problems and also shoulder problems.

The Best there is!!! Dr. Wertman and his staff are professionally prepared to attend to your medical needs with amazing results! On two occasions recently I sought his surgical experience on my hands ! The Doctor is a magician proving what he can do to repair injuries, detail post op care, recovery and send you on your way fixed and ready for another working day!🇺🇸

The doctor himself was great. He listened to me, explained things to me. The office and wait time were a bit much. There is a tiny foyer with a bench for 2 to sit, a window and on the counter wasatablet screen to check in and out on with a remote person. No one there to ask questions too anything. I was asked to be 15 minutes early for my appointment, I was that or more and still was 1.35 hrs later before the doctor came in for less than 5 minutes.

Dr. Wertman and his PA made my visit very easy and comfortable. They listened and addressed my concerns very clearly. I am very satisfied with my initial treatment

Dr. Wertman took the time to listen to me , provide me with treatment, and give me hope in the future management of my malady. I’m very glad I sought his help.

We went over what was going on with my right shoulder. Informed him that my current pain level is between one and two in the mornings and that it internally clicks. Dr Wertman said that my only option for repair is to get a complete replacement. I can also strengthen the muscles surrounding the rotator cuff to improve it. I chose to strengthen the shoulder another appointment for December.
