Douglas Avella

Best doctor around !! he is so knowledgeable and is so nice, I had scoliosis and didn’t want to get a back brace and he told me all about the surgery he would do and today i feel great. highly recommend

When I was just 4 years old Dr. Avella operated on my elbow I was getting home from ballet class and fell and my elbow went inside out. My mom said I was so shy with everyone but I had no problem taking Dr. Avella's hand and going into surgery. He has fixed many of my bones since. My bones are weak so they break easily. Dr. Avella is not just my orthopedist he is my friend and I am now 13 year's old I survived and my arm is as good as new Thank's to Dr. Avella.

Dr. Avella operated on my 12 year old daughter's ankle. He was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him for any family that is in need of a pediatric orthopedic doctor.

Dr. Avella is a warm and compassionate doc. He has more experience than most and brings a world of knowledge in orthopedics into a personalized practice.

My daughter fractured her femur at a soccer game.at 7:30pm Went to valley hospital and found Dr Avella. Absolute gentleman! Explained what was going to happen. Set myself and wife at ease including my daughter (the patient). Set it in place and came back to preform surgery at 3:30 am. Thanks doc. Going for follow up tomorrow. Can't wait to thank him again. ????

He is absolutely fabulous. He is experienced, knowledgeable and truthfully, the most trustworthy doctor I have come across. He also is great with kids and you can tell he loves what he does. Truly a “calling” for him. Highly recommend.

We have been using Dr. Avella since before our son was born (now 9). He sat with us and explained what our son's bilateral clubfoot would be like. Nine years later and he is our doctor still. He has performed 3 surgeries and we trust him implicitly. Our son probably needs one last surgery but Dr. Avella has been waiting it out as to not over correct it. He is a gem! More doctors should be as loving and caring as he is.

Chilton misdiagnosed my daughter and missed her radial head fracture.. After s week she as still in pain. Took her to Dr. Avella and he found it right away. Don't go to Chilton for broken bones and heart related illness .

My daughter Jillian has been a patient of Dr. Avella for years. She recently had knee surgery and I love that he treats his patients as his own family. She was very comfortable how he explained everything to her and I was very satisfied with the time he took with us after surgery to let us know what was done. He did not leave her bedside until all our questions were answered. he is the best and I would recommend him to anyone who needed an ortho. Dr.

My daughter injured her elbow at 8:30 pm on a Thursday. The ER took x-rays,diagnosed it as a bone chip, wrapped her arm and sent us home. She was up all night with UNBEARABLE PAIN. Dr. Avella saw us immediately the next morning and he saw what was really happening looking at the same x-rays. She had bone and nerve damage from a dislocated elbow that popped back in wrong! Thank you Dr. Avella! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SPECIALIST!
