The reviews listed below were collected independently of University Orthopedics through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
I saw Dr. Terek for his review and analysis on recent CT scans and X-rays that were ordered by my Orthopedist for a mass on my thigh.
Dr. Terek was very professional. He was not overly effusive, but provided clear information. He performed an in-office biopsy and described the details for the procedure beforehand and he was very reassuring throughout the process.
