Recent reviews

Office staff were very friendly and capable. There was really no wait time which was really incredible compared to other doctor’s offices. And Dr. Gray is easily the best doctor and specialist I have ever seen. He listened, he explained the views of the x-rays, and the injuries that are most likely the cause of my pain. I highly recommend Dr. Gray as an Orthopaedist. Not only a doctor who practices as an Orthopaedist but a board certified Orthopaedist.

This a four store doctors office. Friendly staff and incredibly knowledgeable and good at explaining complex things to simple minds.
I have visited the Dr.Gay's office before and had a good experience. This time around was terrible - had to wait for 45 mins, the staff were unfriendly and at the end I was seen by a nurse practitioner who directly recommended an MRI without a preliminary diagnosis. When I tried scheduling the MRI, the front desk staff was rude and unpleasant. I'd not visit again.
Very friendly staff and physician
Verified patient
Dr. Gay was very respectful and took the time to walk us through the results and recommendations. He is very clear in his communication. Highly recommended!
Dr. Gay didn't make me feel rushed. He explained my options and made a recommendation when I asked for one, which was really refreshing because many doctors cut you off and jump right to "do this" before learning much about your specific situation and goals in terms of your desired level of physical activity, etc.. His staff was friendly and professional.
Verified patient
I loved that Dr Gay took the Years of Treatments I have endured into account when approving my Surgery. He understood that I was in Pain and needed relief via Surgery ASAP. Such a wonderful Consultation!!
Verified patient
I’m very pleased with my first visit. I had a thorough ex ray done in my right shoulder . Dr prescribed anti inflammatory and will go forward the next step is MRI . I’m very pleased because I will know what or why my shoulder pain is severe. To be able to recover . The office staff was very pleasant and professional . It was a nice and friendly Atmosphere. Social distancing was enforced . Upon arrival , the staff took my temperature and I saw hand sanitizer all over so it was very easy to use . Thank you

I arrived at my appointment and went to check in but they said they had no appt, for me. Even after i filed out the forms the night before. I don't know what happened cuz i booked it through Zocdoc.
His aids were of greater help!
Verified patient
There was an issue with the scheduling, once that was clear it was ultra-professional. Came in, got an xray, saw the doctor in 5. He seemed ultra-competent with valuable suggestions. Now busy trying them out.
Verified patient
The staff was very unorganised and they were very confused. The wait time was too long. Even the doctor was good and reasonable, I am not sure if I go there again.
Informative and got right to the point
Verified patient
First of all, I can not express how thankful I am that they booked me an appointment the next day. The staff is amazing. Dr. Gay seems extremely confident and not in a cocky way. Made me at ease, explained what was wrong, and will get me in surgery within a week!
