Dr Grablin just did a total hip replacement on me and I am amazed at the results . It’s only been 4 days since my surgery and I can’t believe how little pain I am having, and how quickly my recovery is progressing! He is most definitely a highly skilled surgeon. As well, I find him to be a man of great character and concern for his patients !

The doctor talks to you like your stupid and if you don’t have insurance expect nothing but a suck it up mentality from him. I am convinced his actions and words were Directly related to me not having insurance. The nurse who takes blood pressure And takes you to your room was very nice and understanding. The lady at the front desk was also nice for the most part but would say unprofessional things when told things she didn’t want to hear. I would never recommend anyone to that office nor will I ever return. I fractured both my elbows and can barely move them. If I wasn’t dealing with an abundance of pain I wouldn’t be spending my money on trying to fix it. 210$ visit just to be told to avoid heavy lifting and it’s a minor injury, meanwhile the doctor at the er who took my original xrays said the opposite and said I might need surgery and I definitely needed to see an orthopedic doctor. It was very depressing and a degrading experience listening to dr. Grablin..A big fat waste of money!!
IF U DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE DO NOT GO THERE!!!!

He performed a partial knee replacement on my left leg. It's only been 2 months and I'm totally pain free, completely healed and no visible scar. He is wonderful!

I have seen Dr. Grablin for problems with my knees and my shoulder. He has given me such relief and has helped to avoid surgery at this point. I know that if the time comes that I need surgery he will be my surgeon of choice, He is straight and to the point but also compassionite in his treatment. I would reccommend him to anyone needing a great orthopedic professional. His office staff are pleasant and helpful and appointments are scheduled in a timeley manner.
He is conveniently located and affiliated with two great hospitals in my area.

I saw Dr Grablin for a persistent knee problem. I needed a knee replacement. The Doctor and staff gave me all the information I needed to get the best possible result. They walked me through the surgery procedure and the recovery period. It really made me feel more at ease knowing what to expect. Dr Grablin was clear on what exercises to do to get the best results. He is very clear and straight forward with his advise and treatments.
I would recommend Dr Grablin and Manatee Memorial Hosp for your Ortho needs. I am 3 weeks post op and I am very pleased with my results and my care.

My wife recently had both knees replaced by Dr. Grablin at Manatee Memorial Hospital. We could not have asked for better results! Dr. Grablin was excellent all the way - from the first office visit, through the actual surgery, and during follow-ups. The staff at Manatee Memorial was outstanding. I would definitely recommend Dr. Grablin to anyone seeking an very professional, competent, and caring orthopedic surgeon.

This is the cleanest medical office I have ever been in. The staff were always punctual, courteous and returned phone calls in a timely fashion. There was no pressure to rush into surgery without first a thorough diagnostic evaluation through MRI which was explained to me in detail. I was offered options of facility for my surgery and type of anesthesia. After my surgery, rehab and physical therapy was easy, painless and done at my pace and leisure. I was pain free and back to my business within a matter of days, instead of weeks. I am completely satisfied with my surgical experience by Dr. Grablin and would recommend him to anyone needing orthopedic surgery.

Thoroughly shocked at the top-rated reviews based on the experience we had with my 92-yrd old mother just yesterday. Complications followed her treatment and we were "blown off" by the nurse who told us to contact the ER or our primary doctor. No compassion, sense of urgency and total lack of patient care. I am not one to complain so this was a terrible experience that I wouldn't want someone else to deal with. My mom experienced a serious side effect of her treatment from Dr Grablin and we were told to go somewhere else. When told that this was a known side effect I was informed that "we've never experienced this before so can't help you" - what type of physician care is that?
