I highly recommend the good doctor and his staff. Dr Mautner did the surgery needed and I have the use of my hand and wrist. Throughout it all, everyone was attentive, informative and very caring. Thank you to everyone involved in my care.

Dr. Mautner was very professional and empathetic to my knee injury. He explained his diagnosis in Layman's Terms that I couqld understand and offered recommendations and home treatments that are easily obtainable. Should I need to see a doctor regarding my knee again (hopefully not), I will definitely see him again.

Saw Dr.Mautner after my hip did not heal after 2 prior surgeries. I have been nothing but pleased with his care and expertise. Although I have not fully healed as of this date, he has done everything that could have possibly be done to change my outcome. As of this date my hip shows signs of beginning to heal, and I am still under his care.

Medical / Office assistant is RUDE and LIES! Office staff is untrained, and can care less. You wait a long time and you do not even see this doctor-he says he is running late in surgery and sends in some Kid - his PA - who you pay the same price to see who does not know anything! Avoid this doctor and staff.

Seriously fractured Medial Malleolus and Right Tibial Plafond while hiking. Dr. Mautner came highly recommended by several surgeons. Having never been injured before and not knowing what to expect - he handled my case with the most extreme care and concern. It's obvious that he cares a great deal about his patients. Couldn't have asked for a better outcome!
