I dislocated my elbow and suffered the terrible triad injury. I went to surgery the next morning and Dr. Altintas repaired my elbow. One year later, I’m pain free and back to my normal activities. Dr. Altintas really cares about his patients and wants them to recover well. I would absolutely recommend him!

Dr. Altintas repaired my fractured hip, and he did a great job. Very happy so far with the progress. It has been about 14 weeks. He is very up beat and to the point. Great staff as well!

This visit was my two week post-op follow-up with Dr. Altintas. First, his nurse, Andrina is always a pleasure to see and has been supportive for all my inquiries/needs. Second, Dr. Altintas cares. He is attentive to all my concerns and questions. I have had my first surgery ever with him. The process has been scary and daunting, so Dr. Altintas' transparency and dedication has made all the difference. I recommend him for all your "knee"-ds (knee injury needs).

Dr. Altintas is one in a million; you won't find another orthopedic surgeon, as knowledgeable and caring. He is attentive, kind and put my left knee tibial plateau back together again. I am forever grateful to him for all he did for me. Ingrid Hagen

Dr. Alinas is very professional and he also is a friendly human being and he can relate to you and understand that you are hurting making him very empathetic which puts me at ease and I know he sees me as a person. He’s very upbeat and has a great personality, and knows how to smile.
