August 18, 2016Marilyn R.Verified patient
Dr. Maynard was very professional and attentive and yet lighthearted which made for an overall good experience. He listened to all of my complaints and concerns and wasn't dismissive at all as some doctors can be. He assessed my situation and didn't rush into referring me for multiple tests.
August 27, 2015Christine S.Verified patient
Couldn't be happier with my treatment. My shoulder was messed up for years and I am convinced if I had another surgeon I would have had to go back for a second surgery. Five years later, my shoulder is perfect!
July 20, 2015Ali D.Verified patient
It didn't really address the problem, so I declined to go back. I feel like he is a really good doctor, but didn't really spend much time thinking about what was ailing me. He was with me only 5 minutes, but it took like 3 hours for the x-rays and waiting.
December 10, 2014Brien B.Verified patient
It was great! He is super nice and knowledgeable. He diagnosed my calf problem right away and made very useful recommendations.

I took a chance and gambled on selecting Dr. Maynard as I was never recommended by anyone. I was amazed how I was able to get an appointment within 3 days. Dr. Maynard's staff did not only show great professionalism they were hospitable and friendly; starting with the receptionist to the assistant all the way to Dr. Maynard himself.
August 21, 2014Sean B.Verified patient
Dr Maynard was fantastic. He was extremely kind, professional and communicated with me on an absolutely perfect level (not condescending, not too elementary and uninformative). He discussed my injury possibilities with me and his office scheduled me an MRI for that same day, and a timely follow-up appointment in less than a week. His receptionist was very friendly and helpful, and ensured that my insurance would cover all my medical imaging. The office was large and immaculate. This was my first experience with an orthopedic specialist and I am glad I chose Dr. Maynard.
June 27, 2014Marta K.Verified patient

April 19, 2013Vincent A.Verified patient
I saw Dr. Maynard for a sprained ankle. After looking over my x rays he recommended a course of action to help heal My ankle quicker. He had a very pleasant disposition and easy to talk to. He got me in and out of the office so I could go back to work. Highly recommend him!
May 23, 2013Brandon T.Verified patient

He is very empathetic with the patient and takes into account what the patient has to tell him, something not so usual in physicians of his quality level.
March 22, 2012Initials hidden
Dr. Maynard was professional and thorough asking various questions to properly assess my injury. Very knowledgeable and explaining everything clearly. The wait time is tricky, i recommend factoring at least an hour extra wait time as it does take a bit before he gets to you.
