Great doctor great staff!
Very thorough, competent and explained the problem and his plan for me. Liked him a lot!
Professional, was easy going and friendly. Explained in detail to me.
I absolutely love Dr Greco! Best results every single time I have an issue. These knees of mine never been better!
I was extremely impressed with my visit today for my shoulder. This orthopedic doctor was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. He took the time to listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly in a way I could understand, and never made me feel rushed. His examination was thorough, and I left feeling confident in both the diagnosis and the treatment plan. It’s rare to find a doctor who combines expertise with such a kind and reassuring manner. I’m very grateful for the care I received and would highly recommend him to anyone needing orthopedic care.
Great bedside manner
Dr. Greco was informative, kind informative, very knowledgeable. I appreciate that he didn’t want to immediately take me straight to surgery. He listen to what I had to say, and answered all of my questions, he put mind at ease. He wishing me a happy birthday, nice professional, and good at what they do.
Love your staff!!!All of them! Your x-ray tech and your nursing staff-even though I didn’t see Dr. Greco-ALSO!
Listens to my issues. Great results from previous surgery
After a lifetime of sports, I mean 75 years, Dr. Greco has repaired my husband’s multiple injuries and age related degenerative problems for the past 25 years. He has always been kind, takes time to explain, listens to problems and addresses each one, and he’s done a fabulous job repairing the damage with no complications after surgery. Highly recommend! And wonderful nurses/assistants too!
