Dr Cole at Florida Hospital Orlando
Rhonda O. replied:
I had both of my knees done last year with Dr Nguyen in Orlando. Great outcome and experience. I was told a year but got called after three months. It was worth the wait to know I had a surgeon who pioneered the side cut and had so much experience.
Deborah R. replied:
Dr J Dean Cole in Orlando is the absolute best in the country
Eleanor M. replied:
Dr. Duke in Ocala did my two knees and a hip and he was wonderful, and Florida Rehab, which he sent me to, was the best.
Sandra P. replied:
Dr. Duke in Ocala. No problems. Good result.

James Duke MD, great surgeon. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

Dr. Cole is known to be the man you choose when you have a difficult or unique case - he is pretty famous for tackling the hardest cases in Florida.

I know that many many people in The Villages love Dr. Derek Farr in Ocala... http://www.twinpalmortho.com
Kathy T. replied:
I need one ( but putting it off) and Dr Michael Messiah will do it.
William H. replied:
Wife had Dr Eithier
Dale G. replied:
He is good too. I considered him but he goes down the middle. He and Dr Duke good for that. Dr Duke did my wife's knee and she was back to tap dancing in 3 mos. Went to Messieh because he does the side, he's close and I did extensive research on him and could not find one negative against him. That was 1 1/2 yrs ago. I play softball and dance(BR), too.

Dr. Radnathy who practices at Waterman in Taveres is excellent! Hubby had total knee replacement and was on a 10 day cruise 6 weeks later.
Judy B. replied:
Dr Duke is excellent. He only does knees and hips. His staff is wonderful as well. I don’t know how quickly you can get an appointment but he is worth the wait!
