I was amazed at how thorough Dr. Dean was at my 3 month total knee replacement post op appointment. Since it was my first replacement, he explained to me exactly where I was compared to others at the same time. He told me exactlyShow more what to do to continue with the activities I love to do. He found an underlying issue when he opened up the knee and explained the exact symptoms I was having unsolicited. It was like he was reading my mind. The xrays showed a perfect knee replacement. He also told me my other knee was fine and I'd never need a replacement. He said I am one and done! I would recommend Dr. Dean 150%!
MArk Dean replaced my knee over 13 years ago. It’s doing great. Total range of motion, no pain and strong. I was concerned on longevity having read on the internet that knees last about 15 years! Well I was wrong as he assuredShow more me that was for knee replacement in the 90’s and before. The newer knees should hold up well beyond that…probably forever based on my X-rays (currently 69 yrs old)! He reviewed my X-rays which looked like the day he put them in so all is great.

Absolutely one of the best doctors I have gone to. He paid attention to all of my symptoms and provided well needed feedback. He scrutinized my MRI and made comments that gave me a framework of how to proceed going forward to address this issue. He was easy to talk to and gave me the option to use the portal where I could ask for PT referral if needed. I am glad my Primary Physician recommended him.
Dr. Dean was thorough in his explanation of my issue, ensuring that I understood what he was saying. He took his time and explained my different options. There is a reason he is recommended so highly.
This was my first time seeing Dr Dean about my shoulder and I would highly recommend him. He was professional and listened to my concerns. He is honest and straight forward in his answers exactly what I look for in a physician. He agrees with me, exhaust everything else before running to surgery although I have heard he is an excellent surgeon! We will see what the MRI shows.
Dr. Dean explained everything before the surgery and again a couple months afterwards during my checkup appointment. I highly recommend Dr. Dean if you have knee issues.
Dr Dean is always professional and he listens and handles the problem. I have had him as my ortho for two successful rotator cuff surgeries, a trigger finger surgery, and have total faith in his ability.
MArk Dean replaced my knee over 13 years ago. It’s doing great. Total range of motion, no pain and strong. I was concerned on longevity having read on the internet that knees last about 15 years! Well I was wrong as he assured me that was for knee replacement in the 90’s and before. The newer knees should hold up well beyond that…probably forever based on my X-rays (currently 69 yrs old)! He reviewed my X-rays which looked like the day he put them in so all is great.
Dr Dean and his staff are simply the best. Their experience and expertise are proven in each procedure, discussion, and outcome.
I first met Dr. Dean in 2004 when I had a torn meniscus. Now 22 years later he has laid out a plan for my knee treatment to avoid or at least postpone surgery
Dr. Dave explained the next step if the Cortizone shots do not work, it was very detailed and helpful.
Dr. Dean is a wonderful and thorough doctor. He takes his time with his patients and always has time to answer questions. You can be sure as a doctor that he will treat you with the upmost respect and give you the best care!
Very caring
Excellent Doctor and practice.and have been to BOSS for many different procedures!
Very caring
Dr. Dean made me feel comfortable. He answered all my questions and discussed options. He took all the time I needed!
I had an issue with my shoulder and elbow. When I showed up for my appointment the front desk staff was very helpful and cooperative, and then the x-ray technician also was friendly and professional. I met Dr. Dean for the first time I explained my issues he took his time examining me as well as explaining what was happening and different options that I had for my problem. I would definitely recommend this entire practice.
Dr. Dean is an incredible surgeon. He knew what my outcome would be even before he did the surgery. The program that they have set up, works like clockwork. Everything that they tell you in orientation, actually took place. 12 weeks to the day, I am walking without pain. I want to thank you Dr. Dean and your team for taking such good care of me! The HH Surgery Center team was amazing. When considering to have this done, please be loyal to PT.
The very best.
Well taken care of.
Was really eye opening to find what it's not. But got to find out more MRI
The best!
An excellent doctor who provides detailed explanations of your orthopedic issue and a comprehensive plan for a recovery solution.
Very knowledgable, speaks clearly, concisely and honestly.
Thoroughly discussed my situation & provided I was able to choose my options!
Dr Dean was great, he took time to explain to me what was going on and what my options are.
Dr. Dean is the best. And he also is friends with Tom Berenger- even better.
BEST , DR.DEAN WAS TOTALLY HONEST AND HE EXPLAINED THINGS AND I VOICED TO DR.DEAN I HAD UNREALISTIC EXPECTIONS. DR.DEAN YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
Dr. Dean is an extraordinary surgeon.
Dr. Dean is the doctor you want to see if you have a joint injury. He will take the time to review the MRI himself, rather than just following the radiologist report.
Dr. Dean and his staff were very nice
Dr. Dean is refreshingly real. He doesn’t bullshit You. It’s so nice to have a doctor who doesn’t try to act like they are above you because of their education.
