Dr. Moran seemed like a nice guy but very disappointed with his care. I went to him knowing what…read morewas wrong with my thumb after being diagnosed by another doctor already. He acted as if I had nothing wrong. I went basically to establish a relationship knowing that I wound need surgery in near future because I like Connecticut orthopedics having had good experience before. I also like their surgical center. Well Dr . Moran suggested a brace and some ointment, not even mentioning a cortisone shot. He ended the visit in a few minutes not even telling me the ointment or suggesti g fitting me for a brace knowing I can't wear a brace for work. Low and behold I didn't have a good experience and I'm going back to my original doctor who did my other thumb with success and diagnosed this one the same way.

I've been going to Dr. Guidone for many years now. She is extremely caring and knowledgeable. She…read morehas a great bedside manner and will take the time to explain your diagnoses, procedure, treatment, and after care. I've recommended a her to a couple friends as well and they couldn't be happier. It can be challenging sometimes to get someone on the phone, but it is a very small office... usually just the doctor and 1 person at the front desk.

For many years I tried to find a good podiatrist, and I absolutely found a great podiatrist in Dr…read more Alicia Guidone. I have been her patient now for over 10 years. Generally I don't like having anyone work on my feet, so the first time I went to see Dr. Guidone I was rather apprehensive. But within a few moments during my initial appointment I realized that Dr. Guidone was special: she was kind and gentle and she listened to my concerns very carefully. Over these many years I realize that Dr. Guidone cares for each and every one of her patients as if they were her own family members. If you currently looking for an excellent podiatrist, I would certainly recommend going to Dr. Guidone .

My mom has been a patient of Dr Grippo's for the past 6 years. He has always treated her with…read morekindness and respect and cared for her in a professional and caring manner. My mom is 95yo and only sees her PMD yearly and Dr Grippo every 3 to 4 months for her foot care. He always makes these visits pleasant. I would highly recommend him.

I have been coming here for at least 15 years. I have had 2 lumbar surgeries, one cervical spine…read moresurgery, 2 shoulder surgeries and I have seen many doctors in the practice, but they have gotten too big over the years and a lot greedier. Every time slot is booked with 3-4 patients per doctor and there have been times where I waited over 2 hours to see someone as a result. I had an appointment this morning, first thing, hoping to avoid the usual delays, but they called all 4 of us with 9 am appointments for the same doctor into the room at the same time, and despite being there 20 minutes before the other 3 people, I was seen last. I can no longer come to a practice where they don't value my time. Triple and quadruple booking is an insult to patients in my opinion.

Dr. Norman Kaplan, and his orthopaedic practice, provide quality care to patients in need. I have…read morebeen a patient of Dr. Kaplan's for over 35 years. During that time frame, Dr. Kaplan has replaced both of my hips, and has provided care for both injured knees. His medical expertise and quality bedside care, have taken me through some difficult medical issues. In short, I have the greatest respect for Dr. Kaplan, his associate physicians, and the helpful support staff at Connecticut Orthopaetic Specialists.

I went here in 1996 for an ingrown toe nail. They performed a procedure on me that was incredibly…read morepainful, as they had not given me enough local anesthetic. The toe nail grew back, so they performed the procedure again. And again. And again. After the 4th or 5th time the problem came back after undergoing the same painful procedure over and over, I went to a general practitioner in Guilford. The general practitioner performed the minor surgery once (with effective anesthetic), and the ingrown toe nail NEVER grew back. These people have also recently performed an operation on my employer which has kept him laid up at home and practically bedridden for the last month. If a general practitioner can outperform them at their own game, that's a red flag. Proceed with caution when dealing with Drs. Grippo, Lazarus, and whoever else they've added in the last 18 years. Hope this helps. Good luck.
