Unfortunately Dr. Oliver needed to leave our meeting 2 or 3 times to tend to other issues. Otherwise I would have rated him a 5.

He was absolutely amazing. He has an awesome bedside manner with his patients. He know exactly how to put them at ease. I am so happy Dr. Oliver is my Orthopedic specialist. He is very knowledgeable and he does not rush to judgement on care, as I was uneasy about knee surgery and that was not his first thought on fixing my issue! That is a last resort. Thank you Dr. Oliver.

I am at Dr. Oliver for a second opinion based on a referral. It’s clear there are levels to to this field of specialty. Dr. Oliver offers the highest technology coupled with years of experience. Robotics are that should be taken advantage of by patients. Very few doctors offer this procedure. My other orthopedic I have only met with the PA had of replacement and scope on opposite knee. first appointment at Dr. Oliver‘s office. I met with him personally and learned more during that appointment than I have in the last year going to my other doctor. My father had replacements from two different doctors, one of which being Dr. Oliver and he can easily determine which one is superior . No brainer choice. Not to mention very personable and extremely professional.

Rude, didn’t seem to give any interest in wellbeing if he was no longer providing surgery.

Dr Oliver was fantastic! He listened to my concerns regarding my knee and gave me all the options going forward. I have had five knee surgery due to sports. He knew exactly what I was going through. I received a cortisone shot and scheduled physical therapy. The swelling has gone away and I am able to walk up and downstairs comfortably. At some point I will need a total knee replacement and I will have Dr Oliver perform the surgery. He was very professional with his examination and extremely knowledgeable. He was highly recommended from his peers

I have been dealing with Orthopedic Doc's since I was 13 YO and I am 65 now!
Oct-2023
He was extremely busy. I would have liked more than three minutes with him. He is worth the wait. I think if they could schedule a little longer appointments it would be great.
Sep-2023
Kind and caring. Great job with my knee replacement.
Sep-2023
Dr. Oliver is a talented surgeon however, there are issues with his philosophy around paper surgical pain management. He and his staff are quite dismissive about the pain their patients are feeling. When I broached the subject about the lack of access to pain meds in the weeks following surgery, Dr. Oliver merely said he appreciated me letting him know. Months later, a friend has just had a knee replacement with Dr. Oliver and reports the same difficulty getting adequate pain relief, getttin prescriptions in a timely manner and being treated dismissively by Dr. Oliver's PA's. Phone messages left on Dr. Oliver's VM go unanswered. It's a shame, really. Suck a good surgeon and failing due to lack of empathy.
Sep-2023
