Had surgery and have an issue that affects how well I am healing. Might need second surgery. Waiting on callback. Let the pain be gone and healing to begin
Professional, informational and efficient.
As always, straight forward and curtious.
Great surgeon and office staff
Dr Martin was exceptionally courteous, professional and clear in his explanation of my condition. He provided me with well thought-out recommendations. I highly recommend Dr. Martin!
So impressed
Dr. Sheldon Martin provided outstanding care, and demonstrated a high level of knowledge and confidence throughout my visit. His professionalism and reassuring approach put me at ease, and left me assured about my treatment. Exceptional orthopedic care.
I love him. I think he is the best. My shoulder replacement couldn't have gone better. My recovery is moving along as expected. He performed the same surgery on my late husband 15 years ago and the results were amazing. Thank you Dr. Sheldon
Amazing guy. Really appreciated the time he spent with me. Very impressive. I’ll always come to him as things arise.
This was one of the most awful doctors I have had the displeasure of seeing. If he spent 5 minutes with me I’d be shocked. He asked me nothing about the traumatic fall I had Saturday that badly injured my knee. He talked at me, not to me. He mainly talked at me about my weight which has zero to do with my injury and hardly gave me time to ask him about my actual fall and injury. I wasn’t there for weight loss, but a knee injury. The last time I checked orthopedics aren’t weight loss doctors. I am so disgusted with him and llivid about how I was treated. It was horrid.
