Dr. Sauchuck repaired my badly torn meniscus 15+ years ago. I have had an xray since to check and see of the status and found no issues. In fact, everything is exactly where it's supposed to be. At the time of my surgery, I had no issues. I followed his advice pre and post surgery and healed well. I still play soccer today. I have no pain and no further problems. I would highly recommend his team.

See here, Dr. Sauchak passed me onto a colleage of his for my partial knee replacement 4 yrs ago. Now I'm looking at a possible full knee replacement! If only John would have started the partial, he would have seen that it needed to be a full knee...! Now to go through this so called sh.. again!

He replaced both knees. I'm a artist, he helped me my regain independence . He also is a very good person. And yes I had to wait a long time in the waiting room to see him, sometimes, but I was comfortable.

A great doctor. He actually cares about his patients and does not treat you like a number. Makes accurate diagnosis through knowledge and actually listening to the patient. Overall great doctor and would recommend to any and all who need orthopedic treatment.

After having three knee surgeries with other doctors, Dr. Sauchak was the one who put me back together. He takes a more conservative approach and only operated when it was absolutely necessary. I thought so highly of him that I sent my son to him after he injured his knee twice - both requiring surgery. He had no problems with either surgery and bounced right back.

Dr. was never able to explain to me why my knee was fully funtional, (occasional stiffness from meniscus tear), before the surgery, yet after I'm completely unable to do activities I used to do just one week before it (running, tennis, karate). Only reason was he gave was he found I have some arthritis in my knee, but that would have already been there. So now i'm useless and uninsured. THANKS ALOT DOC
