Tri State Orthopaedics & Sports Med Reviews ( 250 )

  1. Tri state orthopedics should be embarrassed to have so much corruption within their business! Doctors like Victor Thomas should not even be allowed to have a Doctor’s license after the pure money driven corruption to deny all workers comp …

  2. They made us wait for more than half an hour for a follow up appt in the afternoon, patients also have jobs to go back to, don’t give an appt in the middle of the day if you can’t see the patient within a reasonable time, as I write this we are still waiting for the doctor to come and take a look at my husband

  3. Dr. Victor Thomas gave me knee surgery for an ankle injury.
    Nothing wrong with my knee until after the surgery.
    I ended up with a neuroma in my knee from the surgery that …

  4. I appreciate the thorough exam and tests that pinpointed the areas of my problem. Now I hope the MRI I have to schedule will help to get me on the quick track to recovery

  5. I wish I could review them because I was there, but I was scheduled for an appointment for a hand injury, talk to them the day before about it. They then call me as I am half way there (I live an hour away) to tell me they cannot keep the …

  6. I always find it strange that people use a forum like this to complain, while the rest of the world appreciates medicine . This is an OUTSTANDING practice. My daughter had ACL surgery with an a perfect outcome. I personally have had treatments for elbow and knee issues that were handled appropriately.

  7. Their billing practices are borderline fraudulent. They sent me a bill in July of 2018 for services in February of 2016. My HSA account only goes back 12 months so I have no way of verifying my payments. (I pay my bills and have NEVER …

  8. Dr Jewel is such a great doctor , I have seen him for over 25 years and he cares as much today as he did the first time I met him: You can not go wrong with Tri State Ortho😊 …

  9. My appointment was for 10:15. I saw the Dr. at 11:15. I had another appointment after, however, this appointment being so late I had to cancel. I should not have been charged a co-pay due to lateness.

  10. Dr. Pagnatto is a gifted physician. He asked excellent questions and listens attentively to my answers. I would highly recommend him to anyone that has orthopedic issues.

  11. Appointment scheduled for 1030 wasnt seen until 1115. When seen Dr. Liefeld told me I had no damage to my knee and to come back if the problem persisted. Okay that’s fine. Except I waited another 20 minutes to see him and when i did he …

  12. I took my 94 year old mother to see Dr. Kaan. He was specifically recommended by the staff. When we got there we did not see the Dr. WE saw the PA. Never saw Dr. Kaan. Then we saw a person who fitted her for orthotics. She was in …

  13. Doctor Emond Is a gifted surgeon. He repaired my right shoulder. After a work related injury. Within 7 weeks of the surgery I
    am scheduled to go back to work.

  17. Very happy with my treatment! I had ankle surgery and the staff was pleasant and professional. I did not have to wait for my appointments, I was taken right away.

  18. Outstanding from the 1st phone call through seeing Dr. Kann. Drove from SC to Pa for this type service and my expectations were exceeded. Each member of his team were beyond helpful AND friendly.

  19. If there were a pantheon of hand surgeons, Dr Campbell would have the most prominent plinth. Alas, no such place exists, and so all we can do is to review him on the internet: Dr Campbell has a rare combination of surgical expertise, efficiency, and a winsome personality. He is an outstandingly good surgeon.

  20. the fast and efficiency from waiting room to exam room to physical therapy was amazing. I have been to other orthopedics that make you wait and wait I was fitted with a comfortable splint and on my way in an hour.

  21. DO NOT go see Dr Gauge or his PA Chess I chipped a bone in my hand and they both lied and told me nothing was wrong!!! Clearly there was!!! I went to MED Express and got a second opinion and sure enough I was right!!! Do not trust them!!! …

  22. I have gone to the office for 2 different sports related issues and have had the same issue every time I go. The office and the Dr ( Dr Langham) do not respect my time and time taken off to come to the office .Every time I have gone I have …

  23. Dr. Pagnotto performed my total knee replacement recently at West Penn Hospital. I am so delighted with the outcome, that I can’t praise him enough. I would consider myself almost completed recovered just 3 weeks from the surgery. There …

  24. Tri-State Orthopaedics is where I retreat, regroup and react to the physical attacks imposed by life. Today’s visit with Dr Paul Liefeld resulted in sound direction for my particular case. Dr Liefeld gathered new x-rays right in the …

  28. Our appointment was for 1:30 and we were made to wait until 3:45 before even being taken back to see the doctor. While we were waiting I asked if it was ok if I ran down the street to get my son some food (I picked him up from school …

  31. I found Dr Kahn to be arrogant and judgmental. He didn’t/doesn’t listen to my concerns. Acted as if I was exaggerating my pain. He has not offered ANY relief of my condition. I would NOT recommend.

  32. It only took a short time from when I arrived until I was seen by Dr. Pagnotto. He listened to my concerns and eased my mind when I

    I only needed a shot and I was happily on my way. Thank you Dr. Pagnotto.
