“Dr. Jonathan Dattilo performed a full right replacement on me 1/8/2026. His pre-surgery, surgery and post-surgery care was exceptional! Not only very professional but also caring. He took the time to answer all my questions and provided detailed supporting information. I recommend anyone seeking a hip procedure to contact Dr. Dattilo, without any reservation! He is the best!”

“Dr. D provides multiple educational opportunities; answers questions; is reassuring; effective pain management . I have minimal scarring from bilateral hip replacements and minimal recovery! Dr. D called me at home to make sure I was doing well the night of my outpatient surgery. It's clear that he maintains newest and most updated clinical knowledge and skills! Super grateful for his help! I highly recommend him for safe, effective medical care!”

“Dr Dattilo replaced both of my knees over the course of the last year. It's the best thing I've ever had done. I wish I had done it sooner.”

“Dr. Dattilo has now replaced both of my knees. I was really apprehensive about getting these procedures carried out. I'm so happy my wife had a friend who recommended Dr. Dattilo. He did a great job on both knees and has a very well thought out process for each patient. I really can't recommend him enough! His approach is ahead of the curve using a new non-narcotic pain killer in addition to traditional meds. On top of the excellent medical care and approach, he is very easy to talk with and straightforward on the information a patient needs to be aware of. If I need hip replacements, I'll be back to have him perform these procedures. I honestly believe that you can't go wrong in selecting Dr. Dattilo to perform these types of surgeries!”
