Excellent service and they took the time to explain everything. Love the personal attention at each appointment. Takes a few days/ weeks to get an appointment but worth the wait. read more

I have seen Dr Catana since. 2011ish. He was always professional, quick, listened and ordered the proper diagnostic testing. He saved me from being paralyzed! read more

I am writing this post not to bash on a doctor but to bring awareness. Last July I hurt my knee pretty bad... this same knee, I have already had previous knee surgery on from a previous injury. I went to go see Dr. Perry at Key West orthopedics. I went into the appointment after waiting a whole week and not being able to walk for him to look at me, not even touch my knee no images taken no ultrasound no x-ray.... he just looked at me and said there's nothing wrong with your knee go home it will heal itself. .....then he proceeded to tell me to go to the checkout area where they charged me $90....$50 for my co-pay and $40 for some sort of percentage on my deductible. And then I'm sure he billed my insurance company for the office visit after doing absolutely nothing, but just looking at me and telling me that my knee was NOT hurt and making me feel crazy for even Being in his office!!! (I also asked Dr. Perry if he would at least order me a MRI and he proceeded to tell me that he would order it, but it would not be approved because he wouldn't tell my insurance company that he felt it was NOT necessary for me to have a MRI DONE!!!) This all made me feel almost silly for going in for the appointment at Key West orthopedics ...but I knew that I couldn't walk right and my knee was not feeling good at all. Was I going CRAZY?!??? I just sucked it up and wore a knee brace and kept going... Fast forward six months later I've been having knee issues on and off where I can't walk on it from time to time and I am in so much pain... I limp when I walk, and my knee swells up to the size of a cantaloupe, Any little move or slight twist I make with my knee can set it off!!! My friends could just look at my knee and tell which knee has a injury!!!! I thought about leaving the island to go get medical treatment in Miami or the Tampa area where my parents live in the winter that's how desperate I was to find good medical care for my knee because I knew something was really wrong with it. After talking to some of my friends one of them recommended me to Dr. Franklin and Dr. Benson here in KEY WEST. About a week and a half ago I did go into see Dr. Franklin and Benson at their office here in Key West for my appointment. Dr. Franklin came into my exam room and took one look at my knees and could tell exactly which one had a problem by sight. He examined my knee and did some imaging.... He he felt my knee and immediately said you have a baker cyst, and after examining it thoroughly came to the conclusion that I have a torn medial meniscus which will most likely require surgery because I've waited so long to treat it... He ordered an MRI that was approved quite quickly. I am awaiting my MRI but I wanted to post this rant/review/awareness message... I for six months have most likely been walking around with a torn medial meniscus .... That will now most likely be worse than it was an require surgery ....when I may have been able to take other routes to heal the tear!!! Also because walking around on a torn meniscus, has caused me to have a baker cyst which causes my knee to swell!!! Because of the greed and negligence of another doctor, I now have a knee that was injured, and the injury has grown worse because of Dr. Perry's negligence. I may not have needed surgery.... I could have maybe gotten some physical therapy, etc. but because of Dr. Perry's negligence, I've been walking around on this knee for six months, making my injury worse! So my point is... if you have any sort of orthopedic injury, please stay away from Dr. Perry and Key West orthopedics and also if you know somethings wrong with you and a doctor tells you there's nothing wrong with you. You are not crazy go get a second opinion always listen to your body, if you don't, I can harm you in the long run. I always listen to my body and my body is usually right. Here is a picture of my left knee and how big it is compared to my right knee and of course nothing was wrong with it according to Dr. Perry. read more

They really need to extend time for each patient. I was to have major ortho surgery but the dr ran In and out. Hard to have a needed conversation about my upcoming major surgery. My decisions about the surgery would've been different if I'd had my questions answered. The post-op was much the same except the person I was placed with for post op acted like information was an expensive commodity and she would have to pay by the word. I would save my surgery for some other venue. Too late for me but keep researching and look for 2d opinions. read more

I brought my mom in today as a new patient. She was almost crippled over in pain from her back and shoulder. It was so upsetting to see her in pain. Dr. Catana worked a miracle with her. She cried from happiness! We are so fond of him! His care, concern and professionalism is unmatched! Thanks Dr Catana and staff. ‍‍‍ read more

Awesome and honest Dr. live in Texas but will be traveling for ortho help to key west.

Went in for my initial appointment with Dr. Perry this afternoon. After filling out about 20 pages of paperwork, I was escorted to the exam room where I "met" Dr. Perry. This man has the absolute worse bedside manner of any doctor I have ever met! Dr. Perry did not even have the courtesy to introduce himself to me before basically blowing me off as I had no condition whatsoever in his opinion. I will be going elsewhere to have this determined and I caution all others who appreciate being treated with respect to go elsewhere. read more

I find the office staff very professional and I have never had a long wait time. Dr Catana has a wonderful bedside manner and has always made my family comfortable and at ease. read more

Dr. Catana is the best. Takes time with you, cares, and does not rush to surgery. I fly in from out of town just to see him!
