Orthopedists - Nashua, NH

"Excellent Doctor from start to finish. Very experienced in knowledge and to communicate with as a person. Road to recovery was great. Thanks"

"Dr Hoang did surgery on my shoulder twice as it had frozen after the first attempt. He was straight forward about physical therapy and attentive to my concerns about being out of work as a nurse. If fact, I believe I have another rotator cuff tear and am hoping he will do my surgery again."

"I saw Dr Price for low back pain. He required that I walk in my underwear in front of him which I found odd and embarrassing. He commented, more than once, that I was obese, showed me my x-rays, and then dismissed me, telling me I needed a laminectomy on L5-S1 discs. I left that appointment and broke down in tears in my car. Never had I been so humiliated in my life but because I was in such pain I went ahead and had the surgery performed by Dr Price at St Joseph's hospital in Nashua, NH. It was a failed back surgery. A year later I was at Lahey Clinic in Burlington having emergency surgery on my back. A Neurosurgeon there had to clean up the mess Price had made of my L5-S1 disc area. He described having to dig the nerves out from around my disc. No wonder I had been in such excruciating pain. Thank God he was able to repair my back. More important he was supportive, kind and understanding. Dr.Price is too old to learn new tricks, and from the brief time I had the misfortune of knowing him, I'm sure he has no insight into how mean and rude he is or how uncomfortable he made a young woman feel, (narcissists rarely do), but he made me feel really awful, even worse than the botched back surgery he performed on me. I'd like to remind Dr Price that I can lose weight but he can't lose ugly, which he is, both inside and out. Please beware when choosing a surgeon."

"Gary Fleischer performed a 3 level lumbar fusion on me with replacement of 2 discs as well as another screw inserted from below my spine through my left buttocks. The 3 procedure surgery went well until I was struck with a life threatening infection which resulted in a lengthy hospital stay and months of antibiotics at home. Dr. Fleischer denied any responsibility for the infection. Months later, I complained about constant pain in my lower back. He said I was completely fused and everything was correct. He then abruptly closes his practice and moves to North Carolina. He referred me to another surgeon. Come to find out my back was NOT fused and I needed another lumbar fusion revision. Fleischer with his unprofessional attitude cost me a year of pain and suffering. To this day, he refuses to take responsibility for his lack of skill. My advice is stay away from this man at all costs and seek help from a spinal professional. This man should not be allowed to practice medicine. Telling me my back was fused and to do anything I wanted with no restrictions is crazy. My new surgeon recognized the problem immediately and fixed Fleischer's mistake promptly. Stay Away From Fleischer!! Total Narcissist!!"
