Donald D Diverio's Online Review Report Card

One of my legs are shorter than the other and hip job is totally wrong. Thanks.

No problems.

Dr. Diverio a very competent doctor, good with kids, and wears nice ties.

I had extensive surgery on my ankle, he was the only Dr. to do my surgery. If I had known what I know now I would of refused him. I was in terrible pain and live alone.I asked him to go to rehab and he refused.The nurses even thought I was not able to be alone since I was still in pain and shakey. He was rude, cold, uncaring and yelled at the nurse in front of me. Sent me home with a rickety walker. Needless to say I reported him to the hospital and never went back to him.

I am very thankful that Dr. Diverio is an orthopedic surgeon at NMC as I had to have a total hip replacement . He did not rush me into making the decision to have this done- instead he gave me all the facts and allowed me time to make my own decision . He is very thorough , patient and kind . Outcome of surgery was excellent ! Thanx Dr. Diverio. May God continue to bless you !

I was a patient of Dr Diverio for more than 20 years. In all that time, through ongoing problems with osteoarthritis in my hands, feet, knees, hips, shoulders, several replacements and many, many episodes of physical therapy, he was always professional and completely competent. I have been a registered nurse for more than 50 years, but I don't go to doctors to diagnose myself nor to prescribe my own treatment. Regarding his staff I can only say good things. They were always courteous and efficient and made every effort to accommodate my sc.hedule when needed.

Contrary to the other reviews on this site, my experience with Dr Diverio has been excellent He does have a unique personality, but his expertise is unquestionable. I have had multiple, multiple! bone and joint issues for the most of my adult life and forprobay the last 25 years he has been my physician. He isn’t my buddy, but as a physician I would choose him first for any orthopedic problem. If he believes I’d be better served by someone who is more specialized, he is very willing to refer

Workers comp drs who don't care about the patient, instead is concerned about cost to insurance company.

Met Dr. Diverio in ER when my son broke his arm. It was sticking up at 45 degree angle and we were told surgery was a possibility. Although he was kind to us, he was short tempered with the ER Staff. Follow up visits were short and sweet. I felt belittled when asking questions. Was left with strong impression that he should not be questioned. Several requests to view the x-rays in the exam room with him to ask questions were ignored. I'm left wondering if my son got the correct treatment.

Dr. Diverio takes time to answer any questions. He explained in terms I could understand what would happen during and after surgery. Shows genuine concern for patients.
