Michael J. Axe, M.D.

Axe is a craftsman. Top of the game.

thorough and efficient! was careful with ordering my meds (other conditions)

A little rough but excellent bedside manner..

I have been seeing Dr. Michael Axe now for several years. I could not be more pleased with his treatments and results.

very knowledgeable

Great bedside manner. Loved his laugh! Gentle but thorough with the exam. Put me at ease, despite news I will most likely need surgery. Another positive experience with First State Orthodox. Thank you!

I came to Dr. Axe after seeing numerous physicians for knee pain. I’m delighted to have a thoughtful exam and treatment plan. My words can’t express my gratitude for an accurate diagnosis from an expert clinician. Outstanding!

Exsetional care by Dr Axe thank you since Oct 3rd 1987

Had a previous knee surgery that he preformed and it had excellent results. I trust him and his experience. My shoulder has been greatly improved.

I would highly recommend Dr. Michael Axe to anyone. His ability to give steroid injections are beyond outstanding! I would travel hours if needs be to have Dr. Axe inject a joint!!

good rapport with patients. Fully answers any and all questions.

Very nice doctor. Easy to talk with. He came highly recommended. His explantation of my injury was easy to understand. He gave me enough time to ask my questions. I , too, would highly recommend this doctor.

Great doctor, very personable

Very professional and assuring

On July of 2015 Dr. Axe repaired my left rotator cuff, and my left bicep tendon! I recovered my strength and flexibility! Dr.Axe is a great doctor! He did an excellent job!

Very thoughtful of the discomfort and very personable.

Great job well done clear path forward !

Direct & too the point , pleasant about it.

Professional, courteous and treatment focused visit. Dr. Axe has been my orthopedic specialist for a decade and is excellent!

Dr. Michael Axe - gets to the point quick, offers options. Compassionate, understanding and caring. I'm not sure I what else to say about him and his team. My family wouldn't go anywhere else - D.T. ACL Reconstruction.

He’s the best. Quick, courteous, too the point. Oh btw a great surgeon as well!

Great doctor, always to the point.

Just the best. I took my 14 year old son who dislocated his right knee cap. Dr. Michael Axe and his staff are so professional and friendly, treated my son, explained us about the problem. I like the confidence of Dr. Axe

excellent surgeon!

Very friendly. Listened well. Very professional.

Best in the business...period.

He’s been my sports doctor since 1989.. Great knowledge and staff

First class. Top of the line. If you want the best in knees and shoulders in Delaware, look no further.

Always listens and explains his reasoning behind medical decisions

Always top of his game. V

Professional, straight and to the point. Listened to and took my input into consideration for my treatment. I would recommend Dr Axe for any orthopaedic consult & surgery.

Excellent Dr.Thanks

Dr Axe is the consummate professional! His outstanding communication and bed side manner is beyond reproach and sets a fine example for his peers to emulate!! Regards Joe Foss

He was great he answered my questions. He examened me. And he gave me 2 options for treatment.

Dr. Axe was clear and concise when dagnosing my injury and explaining what needs to be done.

I really liked him he was very informative

Insightful and helpful, answers questions and provided critically needed answers.

Was in a rush and couldn’t be bothered to answer questions. Prescribed a medicine I was allergic to...that was listed as an allergy on my chart. Rude bed side manner, and personally insulting.

Careful, detailed, asked good questions and was interested in any added points or clarification as to timeline of injury, recovery progression and treatments.

Is the best orthopedic specialist . He is very warm and friendly. Dr. Axe is very knowledgeable about my condition and gave me an awesome treatment plan.

First Class all around.

I have known and trusted Michael Ace for years!

Great doctor, very knowledgeable

Very friendly. Knowledgeable and listens.

Got me right back into action!

Pleasant, professional, and complete.

Doctor Axe, is straightforward giving all information needed for you to make the best decision. His expertise giving steroid injections is the BEST ever!! I dreaded this when he told me! I was seriously tense, when it was over I was amazed!!

Genuinely concerned about what is causing your discomfort. This is the place to go to get things right. Thanks.

Very personable, informative and direct. Provided all the information I needed and requested.

no bedside manner

Nice, quick and professional.

Best ortho around

Very thorough during my visit. Felt good about the course of action Dr. Axe came up with for my knee pain.

Simply the best

I love Dr. Axe’s honesty and straight forwardness.

Dr Axe is the man! He repaired my left knee and right shoulder. Both are as good or better then new. He will be repairing my left shoulder in the very near future. I am very fortunate to be one of his patients.

So far I have been completely satisfied with Dr Axe! He is about to do my surgery in two days so I’ll let you know how that goes

Personable, great bedside manner, humorous and extraordinarily skilled!!!

I injured my knee and was afraid I wouldn't be able to walk/hike for quite a while. I saw Dr. Axe yesterday and I should be back on the trails in another day or two! He's awesome!

Professional, efficient and courteous. I have complete trust in Dr. Axe.

Dr Axe was funny and kind, and, as in the past, he can see a problem really fast and knows exactly what to do!

Highly recommend Dr. Axe. He's a busy guy (a lot of patients), but he and staff make sure to get patients in and out quickly. Worth it.

Had appointment today for my knee, and as usual, awesome care, would NOT go anywhere else!

Very nice Dr. great with giving shots in my knee, seemed just a little rushed today. Thanks
