Dr. Motz's Reviews

Marcus D.
The service that I received was amazing and if I could give more than 10 stars I would.Dr Motz is a very good Doctor and his whole team.Thank you
Matt M.
1st time seeing Dr. Motz for a shoulder issue and he was great. Came in to see me after reviewing x-rays, did a couple tests & quickly ID'd my issue. His recommendation of OTC meds is working and I couldn't be happier, I wish I wouldn've made an appointment with him sooner.

The whole team at Advanced Orthopedics is phenomenal and my 1st choice for othopedic needs. Two successful hip replacements with Dr. Reisig and this latest experience with Dr. Motz, I cannot speak highly enough of them all.

I recently had rotator cuff repair surgery performed by Dr. Cary Motz at Milehigh SurgiCentwe, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience.

From the initial consultation to post-op follow-ups, Dr. Motz was professional, thorough, and compassionate. He took the time to explain the procedure in detail, answered all my questions with patience, and made sure I felt completely confident and informed. His calm demeanor and clear expertise immediately put me at ease.

The surgery itself went smoothly, and my recovery has been much better than I expected; thanks to Dr. Motz’s skill and the support of Milehigh team. The staff was incredibly attentive, and I always felt well cared for every step of the way.

Thanks to Dr. Motz, I’m back on track and regaining strength in my shoulder faster than I imagined. If you’re in need of orthopedic care, I highly recommend Dr. Motz. His knowledge, kindness, and dedication to his patients make him truly exceptional.

I will continue to recommend him!
Don B.
Dr. Motz was terrific. Finally, a doctor who says, "this injury is not worth opening up, "YET". 'If you injure it further, like squatting to read a putt, you could pull the meniscus and/or tear it further. Let's just be cautious and watch how it heals on it's own. HOW REFRESHING IS THAT!!!!!!! THANK YOU DR. MOTZ.
Jose R.

Dr. Motz and crew were phenomenal! Dr. Motz listened to my daughter, heard her concerns and explained the plan. Answered all the questions and concerns. As mom, watching your kid go through surgery, he made sure I was informed, spoke with me immediately after and explained what was done. His kind and gentle demeanor is a breath of fresh air. He loves what he does and it shows!

Laura M.
Knee surgery is not something anyone wants to experience. However, under Dr Motz, I felt at ease. Lots of questions and he took the time to explain everything and calm my fears. Now at eight weeks post-op, he is still making sure the healing process is amazing.

Six months later, the meniscus didn’t heal properly. While this is discouraging, Motz continues to be helpful and caring about my situation.
Mo M.
I love OCC, though I did not get the pleasure of meeting everyone, those that I did were nothing short of amazing. OCC successfully mastered the team work makes the dream work, here's why, starting with the front line the 3 amazing people that are checking patients in and out like professionals, whose duties iam pretty sure that are endless, and they do this consistently. I love that and you will to. And now let's get to the other part of the team that I had pleasure of interacting. Dr Cary Motz and team are Allstars. And you put this altogether you get a organization that cares about you as person and not just a patient. Dr. Cary Motz was very informative about my procedure(6/24 tear of the R. Rotater cuff repair). He treated me like i was part of the family. Thank you Dr. Motz.
Patricia V.

Dr. Motz was professional from the very beginning all the way through the process of my rotator cuff surgery and follow up exams. His staff was always cordial and prompt and professional. I have recommended Dr. Motz and the overall Advanced Orthopedic practice to others who have needed surgery and they too have had wonderful experiences Much as I enjoy the staff and the experiences I have had there, I do hope that I don’t have to see them again professionally.
Thomas H.
I recently saw Dr. Motz for a shoulder/rotator cuff issue. Dr. Motz is compassionate, caring, understanding and extremely knowledgeable in his field. He offered me various treatment alternatives moving forward and described in detail the benefits and risks of each one.

I was very impressed by his communication skills and ability to establish a very positive doctor/patient relationship early on.

Dr. Motz and his staff do an outstanding job. I would highly recommend him to anyone with orthopedic issues.

Doc Motz listened to all my questions and concerns; helped me work through deciding on a solid plan going forward. I appreciate that knee replacement doesn't have to be automatic. I left encouraged about my recovery.

B C
Dr.Motz has been incredible since day one of my injury and has helped me get though a difficult shoulder injury! Highly recommend his team!
Ralph L.
Dr. Cary Motz has done rotator cuff surgery on me, and more recently a broken clavicle repair. The rotator cuff repair was especially difficult and worked out fine. He is conservative which meant more time in a sling. In hindsight I'm happy about that. The office staff is friendly, and Angie is a standout. I almost always get in within 5 or 10 minutes of my appointment. Dr. Motz is straightforward and easy to talk to. As you can tell, I am very pleased and highly recommend this office.
William B.
Dr Motz put my shoulder back together 9 years ago. Followed his guidance to the letter and no pain or problems. Trust his evaluation on my knee at 74 years old. Healing nicely. He is direct, caring, and thoughtful.

I went to Orthopedic Centers of Colorado looking for some answers regarding the extreme pain I was experiencing in both of my shoulders. It didn't take long for the good people there to figure out the cause of my pain and come up with a treatment plan to help me out. Incredible staff and orthopedic specialists, and, of course, Dr. Motz is wonderful! Thanks very much!
Keith S.

My experience with Dr. Cary Motz has been a very good one. He’s professional and kind. He listens and explains everything. Even the day of surgery when there was a delay at the surgery center, he allayed my fears and explained with such kindness that my higher blood pressure (due to having surgery that day lol) went down immediately! The subsequent appointments have been frank and he really listens! It is a pleasure to be dealing with him; I’m one month out from surgery and my shoulder is doing great! Thank you Dr. Motz!
