Deveney Robert's Online Review Report Card

Excellent surgeon - has done my hip and knee. both went extremely well and recovery was quick and easy. Still get in 25-30 days of skiing each year.

Fixed my right knee in minimum time, perfect result and no pain.

Initial impressions after being referred for Total Knee Replacement. Their family at 2 Riverview is very impressive and the equipment is the latest and greatest. Staff was very attentive and very polite and efficient. Dr Deveney spent 45 minutes with me as I asked a lot of questions, many of them technical. He gave me complete and through answers without any hedging. He gave me a straight-up and direct specific answer when I asked if the total knee replacement was appropriate for me and recommended by him. His office staff/schedulers were great and very efficient. I am at a complete loss to understand how anyone would possibly give Dr Deveney anything less that 5 stars ! (Based upon my personal experience). My surgery date is 2 weeks away and I will update this post surgery. So far, I feel confident that Dr Deveney is extremely competent. He told me he's done hundreds of total knee replacements using Mako robotic system, perhaps even more than 1,000.

Dr. Deveney has performed my 2 total hip replacements and 1 minor knee procedure. He is friendly, patient, has a good sense of humor and takes the time to explain everything in terms that are easy to understand. I have had great outcomes from all of my procedures. His office staff is also friendly and attentive.

I have had numerous major surgeries by Dr. Deveney. He is FABULOUS!!!!! Highly recommend!!!!!

DR DEVENY IS A CARING AND NO NONSENSE DOCTOR. NO B S, NO HESITANT VAGUE DIAGNOSIS.HE TOOK A THOROUGH HISTORY AND ASKED MANY QUESTIONS, HE REVIEWED MY OLDER DISCS AND REPORTS, I FELT THAT I HAD FINALLY BEEN HEARD.

Dr. Deveney provided me with the worst experience I've ever had at any medical practice. I understand with COVID the time spent with patients might be shorter but I really don't feel like this was a result of the precautions. The doctor barely introduced himself or took the time to figure out what's wrong or the history of the problem. He was incredibly rushed and I couldn't even finish answering one of his questions before he went into another. He did not ONCE ask me if I had any questions during the visit. After the X-Ray when he came back with a diagnosis he again seemed like he did not want to be there and sped and mumbled through his explanation. He clearly felt he had better things to do than explain a diagnosis to a patient. I was able to catch maybe 1 or 2 words before he left to go grab my injection. Now..the cortisone injection. His bedside manner was horrendous. I came in for wrist pain and when he had me lay down to give me the injection he grabbed my wrist like I was a rag doll clearly knowing I had severe pain in that area. I understand that the shot had to be given at a certain angle and I might've moved at one point after flinching from the pain but that in no way justifies the aggressive and rough manner in which he physically treated me. The X-Ray Tech also needed me to move my hand in a very uncomfortable and painful position but she was gentle and considerate unlike the doctor who had no decency. I left in tears not from the expected pain of the shot but from the frustration of the horrendous service I received from Dr. Robert Deveney. My only mistake here was not looking up his reviews before the appointment. Many have confirmed that he is cold, inconsiderate, and doesn't listen to his patients. The most disrespectful doctor I have ever met.

This practice was the worst experience of my life . All staff was rude from the front check in staff to the dr . He was not interested in the excruciating pain i was in . Told me to take some meds and be on my way . He never even walked in the exam room , he stayed in the doorway . I was in tears and he didn’t do an exam or anything . I did not improve with meds and has an mri . Went back and once again stood in the doorway saying i need to see the pain management doctor . His secretary , Karen , is so rude as well . Please .. DO NOT go here . I found another practice that was recommend and they are amazing .. wish I went there first . Dr Fish at orthopedic specialists is amazing and so is the whole staff . I was misdiagnosed and treated for a condition I do not have at Danbury orthopedic. If i could give negative stars I would .
