I have been seeing doctor Diaz for more than 20 years. He has done several surgeries for me and has always been professional. I started seeing him when he was half his age and still look like he was too young to be a doctor. He's a fantastic doctor and listens to his patients. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr Diaz has done many surgeries for me since 2003. I was very disappointed to know that he left Bassett. I hope that he comes back to the area to practice

Dr. Diaz has been my Orthopedic Surgeon for 8 years. He has operated on my shoulder and my elbow. He is extremely professional and explains to you your condition in a normal matter so that you can understand it. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

It's hard to get an appointment, or get him to keep one, because he seems to be on vacation for the most part of a month. He would rather cancel your appointment than lose vacation time...really, is holding on to pain worth waiting for him to get a tan in?

I had to see Dr. Daiz for hip problems. He was charming and professional. He did not recommend more surgery (I had already had three prior to seeing him) but did send me for PT. Follow up care was excellent. I would highly recommend him.
