One of the best doctor offices I've ever been to. Appointment was started within 5 mins. of scheduled time. Dr. Polifroni was compassionate, did not rush me and had a fantastic "bedside" manner.

Very nice doctor, did not jerk me around. Understood that I needed to get right back to work and gave me proper meds, scheduled an MRI right away. I appreciate his swift medical attention.

Dr Polifroni did 2 knee surgeries on me. He is compassionate, caring, and lets you know exactly what is going to occur before and after and the surgery ad sees you thru till you are 100%. He is not one to operate at the drop of a dime he will do whatever he can before he even suggest sugey but when h does you know that it was a last esort. I recommend him highly for all your orthepedic need.

He is an incredibly kind, compassionate caring physician who performs surgery brilliantly and employs the best of surgical support staff. After the nightmare I have had with my neurosurgeon, Dr. Polifroni comes as a breath of fresh air. I wish he were certified in every type of surgery because he is a real gem! Listens to patients, is patient and has a very good reputation amongst his peers, nurses and hospital staff. I can't say enough.
