Dr.Wiater is always very nice and explains things well. I am so grateful to him that I can walk normally today. He “put me back together” after an accident. It took 6 months of PT, but as he promised, I am walking! ❤️

Oct-2022
Waited over a hour just to be seen, then he says nothing wrong, was a new patient, was treated horrible I wouldn’t recommend this doctor or this place, will never go there again
Oct-2022
The best surgeon I could’ve asked for. After being in a bad accident he had to do a total of four surgeries. He made sure I got everything I needed. He seen me as often as I needed as I had complications after both surgeries and he made time to get me in and make sure we stayed on top of everything. His PA is great, his x ray techs are great, and the girls at his front desk worked with me no matter how many papers I needed printed and filled out. If I ever needed to see another ortho surgeon I would definitely be back to see Dr. Patrick Wiater, although in the best way possible I hope I don’t need to pay him another visit. I would recommend him to anyone who comes my way. My incisions are barely even there and my last two surgeries were less than two weeks ago.
Oct-2022
Listened to my issue with my knee before recommending three resolutions. Would recommend his services to others.
Oct-2022
Very personable and professional. I hope I don't need him but if something traumatic happens to me or any family members, I know they will be well cared for here.
