Great Doctor, very professional and in point to what has to get down, very clear info and treatment suggestion. I would recommend him to anybody. One problem i have is the operation center where he operate is worst place to go ever. They would ask you to show up 2 plus hours before your surgery time is, hoping some one doesn't show. I couldn't bring my self to do the surgery there even tho he was great doctor place was a mess try to get many people in as they can. My surgery was schedule for 8:30 i was tolled by the head nurse I had to be there at 6 a.m or even before doesn't make any sense.

Doctor Martin performed a shoulder replacement for me about 2 months ago and I am totally pleased with all parts of my treatment. Today I went to see him about pain in an artificial knee. His examination was very thorough and he took as much time as I needed. He explained several treatments and I chose to wait and see what develops. I made my appointment on line last evening and it worked perfectly!
Verified patient
My husband and I both saw him for office visits. He seemed very knowledgeable and took his time. Not a big fan of cortisone shots tho. (me, not him)

Verified patient
Easy communication. Knowledgeable.
Verified patient
Very professional and informative. I have been to several doctors and when I came to an appointment in pain, I walked out in pain. With Dr. Martin it was different, he discussed the findings and reached a solution to make me feel a lot better when I left. I am very pleased with the service.
Verified patient
Very convenient with immediate appointment. I was in so much pain but leery of narcotic pain killers. Within hours of making my appointment on ZocDoc, I was finally experiencing, safely, some relief. I found the Dr. to be very polite and thorough in his examination. He didn't seem rushed and I felt as though he addressed all my concerns.
I had a short visit but Dr. Martin answered my questions and gave me good information. He had a pleasant personality and didn't seem rushed. I will return if I have future issues.
