Dr. Weinstein's Reviews

James U.
I would like to compliment Dr Weinstein and his staff at ooc the were extremely polite and went out of there way to let me know everything thats going on with me they even helped walk me through there early check in policy i would like to say thank you to all of you and i greatly appreciate it my apologies occ staff
Bill K
Excellent care at OCC with Dr. Weinstein as usual.
William N.
My meeting with Dr. Weinstein and his PA was wonderful. All questions were answered and explained in great detail. My wait time was rather lengthy as my appointment was at 11 and I wasn’t seen till after noon. I arrived early as requested at 10:30, so I was in the office over 2hours. I would guess more time should be allocated to each appointment to avoid such a lengthy visit!
Deb R.
They put up with me being late, lost in a crazy person. They’re wonderful people. I am so glad they’re in my life to help me get better.
Shea O.

Excellent experience so far. Helpful people knowledgeable in their jobs.
Mike H.
It's been one year today since I had my shoulder replacement surgery, with the help of the physical therapy of 0CC and many more hours of my home therapy lm happy to say it was a great discussion to have my surgery. I don't have any of the pain I was living with before the surgery, Dr Weinstein also did my rotator cuff surgery over ten years ago and it is still doing great, but bottom line is you have to do the physical therapy religiously to get the best results
MT D.

The level of not only professional care but personal care is so good! Dr. Weinstein is a wonderful busy surgeon. I would highly recommend him for his area of orthopedic surgery.
Brent M.
I saw Dr. Weinstein after dislocating my shoulder. As someone that has had experiences with medical professionals on a wide spectrum, Dr. Weinstein is one of the BEST! Dr. Weinstein took the time to listen and explain my shoulder dislocation in a way that I could relate to and truly understand it. All too often doctors are either too brief or have long, tired responses. Not the issue with Dr. Weinstein. He had the perfect amount of context while providing a clear path forward with a Physical Therapy referral. As a bonus, his staff (XRay chica + Ashley) are professional, knowledgable, and friendly. There's a reason why they're known as some of the best Orthopedics in the state.

Thanks for the time Dr. Weinstein + team!
