Jason W Knott's Online Review Report Card

My son has been seen here for two separate injuries and during every single visit we encountered rude front office staff (one woman clearly past retirement age who was particularly awful).  Because of this, we will never return to this group for any further treatment if the need should arise. I would warn anyone with children to NOT come to the practice for any treatment. Besides the awful support staff, the orthopede decided to reset my son's bones without so much as a warning causing excruciating and unnecessary pain and stress.  I have learned a lesson at my son's expense unfortunately, and giving fair warning to any parent to find another ortho!

I was scheduled by orthopedist for preop COVID19 test. Hoag Urgent Care was the site.  The folks in Foothill Ranch were incredible. Health care where they act like they really care. <br>Community Orthopedic Medical Group could learn from Hoag on running a good business and treating people like they care. My COVID19 test was negative. I showed up for surgery expecting to pay $1100 noted on paperwork, and was asked for $3176. Cancelled surgery now looking for orthopedist at Hoag.

Arrived for a late afternoon weekday appointment.  Other than a mask sign on the front door, first uhoh: No temperaure screening on incoming patient traffic.  Opened the front door, and bam, waiting room was PACKED, at least 15 people, many standing.  I retreated into the outpatient corridor to the right of the front door, sat down in the corner chair there for around 15 minutes.  MORE patients arrived, including two that walked in unmasked.  In the entire time I sat there, I only saw two patients leave.  When I was finally called up to the front desk, I was unnerved by the staff looking overwhelmed and the noweven larger crowd in the waiting room.  So I bailed.  No distancing advisories from the staff the entire time I was there, people being allowed in the front door unmasked, no temperature screening, nothing.  With the June 30 Orange County COVID numbers skyrocketing, this practice is UNSAFE.

I&#39;ve had great results with this practice both with Dr. Hanjin who fixed my chronic lower back pain and Dr. Tocci for tendon surgery on my foot.  Professional, caring and talented Doctors and staff.  Can&#39;t say enough good things about them.

Do not go to this doctor office they will charge you for things that they do not tell you about. Such as $750 for a foam and plastic back brace. Even with insurance you still owe $533.61 dollars for a back brace? Will not be returning here. Also Doctor Burdi does not care about his patients. I was waiting for over a hour in the patient room with extreme pain while Burdi and his staff were laughing and talking about stuff they did over the weekend. Then when I was finally seen I was immediately told an apology and how busy they are. Yeah okay. Dont waste your money and time coming here.

Dr. Hanjin is WONDERFUL! Caring, Knowledgeable, and relieves my chronic pain! He really listens and doesn&#39;t &#34;jump&#34; to surgery bring the only choice.

I have 3 doctors at Community Orthopedic Dr Burdi, Dr Morris &amp; Dr Gardner. All of these doctors are super professional experts in their field. Each one has performed a surgical procedure on myself and all with great success! At 70 you need an expert who cares &amp; at the top of their profession.

COMG is a stellar medical group and the doctors are wonderful. I saw Dr. Marangi and he is knowledgeable, thorough and kind. He spent a lot of time with me and answered all of my questions. The staff is also extremely polite and efficient. Even during these tough times with the Covid19 crisis, I felt safe as they have many precautions in place and take the safety of the patients and staff very seriously. I would recommend this group to anyone!

Came to this place for second opinion for my Sons ACL and Meniscus tear. We were so impressed with the way the diagnostic tests were performed that we decided to go ahead with the surgery with this group. Dr. Marangi and his assistant Scott were amazing. My son is still in recovery and progressing well. I will definitely recommend this group to my family and friends if they ever need any orthopedic advice.

This is one of best medical places I have been to. Very professional <br>Doctor Tomas does a great job

Have had contact with this group for a number of years and never been disappointed ! Be it back, wrists or knees they have always been there!  Staff and Doctors all top notch and very patient oriented!!  I don&#39;t believe I would go anywhere else in South Orange County for Orthopedic help and surgery!

Dr. Thomas of Community Orthopedic Medical Group did my knee replacement surgery last July and I had an excellent result!  My experience there was stellar from the time I was greeted at the front desk with a smile until I was actually wheeled into the operating room, came out to recovery and spent the night at the hospital to be released the next afternoon to see a home health care nurse that very evening.  I was cared for by a number of people during my knee replacement experience all provided by or arranged for by Community Orthopedic  Medical Group.  Nobody missed a beat and my experience was a seamless interface with world class care.  I am older and it was frightening to have to go through this procedure at all but I am really glad I followed through and had the surgery! My knee and leg are well and strong again.  I am walking without pain and I am sincerely grateful to Dr. Thomas, his staff, Mission Hospital and my physical therapy team that all did so much to get me well!  Thanks again,<br>Colleen S. in San Clemente, CA

Such a great practice! I have been with Dr. Morris and he&#39;s so patient with me and all my questions. His thorough explanations  could not be simpler to understand! I would totally recommend Dr. Morris (&amp; Charles)!

My experience with Community Orthopedic Group, Dr. Adamson and PA Charles could not have been better.<br>I am thrilled with this and the results from my surgery. Throughout the six month process, I never had to wait more than fifteen minutes for an appointment. The medical staff as well as the supporting office staff were always 100% professional, compassionate, capable, and best of all, happy!<br>It was an excellent experience, with excellent results to my wellbeing.

The best orthopedic group in orange county!  My husband, daughter and myself have all been treated here and cannot say enough about the quality of physicians, professionalism, expertise, and patient care.  We will not go anywhere else!  Dr. Marandola and his P.A. Jason are excellent!  Highly recommend them to anyone with hip, knee or shoulder issues.  They know what they are doing!

Best experience! Called in as an add on since we were out of town when my daughter fractured her wrist (and it was the day before New Year&#39;s Eve). They got us in, no wait when we got there.  Charles Stewart PA was very professional and explained everything clearly.  Everyone we came in contact with was professional and nice.  In and out with cast in 45 minutes. Just found out new orthopedic office!

Dr. Adamson &amp; Dr Burdi are the best there is!<br>Great service great follow up.<br>My Family has gone there for many many years, we have always received the same GREAT care and professionalism.

Dr Marendola is great.  His assistant is amazing too.  They were so kind with our son when he broken he wrist and elbow.  Highly recommend and thank you!!

I went to see Dr. Tom Thomas to get a second opinion on my knee and I was very impressed with him and his staff. Dr. Thomas was very thorough and explained everything so that I could completely understand all of my options. I didn&#39;t  feel like I was being rushed in and out of his office and being treated like I didn&#39;t matter. His staff from the front office workers to the back office workers were very professional and super friendly. I highly recommend Dr. Thomas and have nothing but faith in him to do my total knee replacement surgery.<br><br>Kim Maestri

The entire team at Community Orthopedic is wonderful, conscientious and knowledgeable.   They have the latest equipment.  The doctor I saw, Dr. Evangelista, was thorough, knowledgeable, and respectful.   I never felt rushed and was fully informed about my health situation.  They definitely get my highest recommendation!
