The reviews listed below were collected independently of New England Orthopedic Surgeons through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.

Dr. Gotha was completely dismissive of my issues (fracture) she actually stated “toe fractures don’t hurt” I expressed concerns with limping because of the pain after recent hip surgery and if this could impact the recovery from that. “why would u limp? A toe fracture doesn’t hurt” maybe it’s “bothersome” in the beginning. I can’t take ibuprofen bc of hip surgery, she stated that why would I need to take anything for pain? She left the office visit “to go check on something” and never came back. I told the Medical assistant that I still had questions , she came back and said “the doctor wants to know what questions” I told her it was regarding the boot, work, and how this would affect my gait, as I also have hip dysliasia in my other hip that I’m trying to strengthen to avoid any issues. The medical assistant came back and said, “no issues w your hip, this is a broken toe”
