Christopher W. Digiovanni's Online Review Report Card

Dr. DiGiovanni is a brilliant surgeon! He is also kind and thoughtful and takes his time with you. I had bunion and hammertoe surgeries. Highly recommend!

I had a total ankle replacement 13 weeks ago and I couldn't be happier with Dr. DiGiovanni, MGH and the procedure itself. Covid delayed me but it was well worth the wait. i am walking and biking mostly pain free which gets better every day. I highly recommend Dr. D!

Dr. D, his staff and MGH went far above and beyond my highest expectations. Professional, courteous, compassionate and highly skilled are how I would describe my experience . I cannot thank him enough for the treatment and after care I've received. I'm 13 weeks out from a total ankle replacement which had been delayed due to Covid, but it was well worth the wait. I highly recommend Dr. D and his ...

Dr. Di Giovanni delivers surgical brilliance wrapped in human warmth. He always enters the room with a smile knowing who I am, what he as done (or will do), patiently explains every procedure and answers all questions with extraordinary clarity. Because this physician is so well prepared, he was extremely efficient without ever making me feeling rushed. If the current post-operative painless functionality of my previously malformed foot and ankle is a measure of Dr. Giovanni's skills, I can only use the word "perfect." Five stars in my review are too few.

Dr. Di Giovanni delivers surgical brilliance with human warmth. He enters the room with a smile and is comprehensively prepared to explain every procedure and answer every question with patience and extreme clarity. There never is a feeling of being rushed and always a sense of complete mastery of the situation. I arrived, in chronic pain, with a malformed foot and ankle. Dr. Di Giovanni examined me, explained exactly what he would do and said, "I can fix this," and he did, to my perfect satisfaction. I now walk energetically with no pain. I cannot recommend Dr. Di Giovanni too highly.

Dr. Digiovanni and his entire staff are Best in Class. It may take you a little while to get an appointment, but it's worth the wait. He was very honest when discussing my options for foot surgery and took the time to explain the what and why - also reasons for why something was not needed. I felt I could ask questions about the treatment, procedure and what to expect in the future. I STRONGLY recommend Dr. Digiovanni and his staff to those looking for foot and ankle relief.

Dr. DiGiovanni is the most fantastic doctor I have ever met. I wish I had found him earlier but he has done an ankle replacement and two other surgeries for me. He is sincere and honest. He lays out all the options and explains the benefits and possible drawbacks of each. He lets the patient make the ultimate decision on what he has to offer. I can't say enough good things about this doctor and I would recommend him to anyone who needs to find a foot/ankle specialist. He is very patient and answers all questions that I ask in an easy to understand manner and he has never hurried me. I trust my life with this doctor. Thank you Dr. D!!

I am very grateful to Dr. DiGiovanni for he and his medical and administrative team, for providing me with exceptional medical care. I now refer to him as my "miracle worker."I had come in for a discussion of ankle replacement but Dr. D, quickly realized that I needed foot surgery first to alleviate the pain and provide better stability for the ankle. He was exceptionally caring and competent and has a talent for communicating complicated medical issues and procedures into understandable components so I could make the best decisions possible. He was always patient, understanding but also frank about surgery and rehab issues. He also has a delightful bedside manner, charming and disarming, with a caring, respectful and reassuring manner. My rehab was difficult but Dr. D and his team was there to guide me and assist with any questions. His surgical administrator Tricia was also awesome to work with, so patient and caring! I definitely returning for my ankle replacement next spring. Joseph Miele – Aug 13, 2020

Dr. Christopher Digiovanni gave me my life back by skillfully performing Triple Arthrodesis on my left ankle including a tendon abridgement. I was unable to enjoy walking, golfing, skiing, and performing normal daily activities without extreme pain for more than 5 years and it became progressively more painful. It has been only 6 months since my surgery and I am enjoying my summer to it's fullest extent. I'm playing my best golf 5 days a week, riding a bike, performing heavy household and backyard work. My ankle feels strong and I'm optimistic that a great ski season is in my future. For those of you who are retired and wondering if age is an obstacle, I'm 72 years old. Larry - Rhode Island
