Dr. Philbrick is treating my right shoulder which has a complete tear of the rotator cuff, arthritis and bursitis. He has provided a cortisone injection which has helped with the pain.

Dr Philbrick is amazing I shattered my elbow and then tore the muscle! He performed both surgeries to repair them. If you looked at my arm you could not tell that anything was done! Post of was just as good!

Doctor Philbrook, did an excellent job on my triple hand surgery, he is very informative, an my hand is still mending, but I feel my hand having a lot of strength in it already. I’m very happy with his work. I’m looking forward to do my other hand when I’m fully healed. Thank you Doctor Philbrook

I want to sincerely thank Dr. Philbrick and the nursing team at Orchard Surgical Center for their outstanding care during my treatment, the quality of care, attentiveness, empathy, and extra steps they took to make me feel comfortable. Throughout my time at the Surgical Center, Dr. Philbrick was not only thorough in explaining my condition but also incredibly compassionate, ensuring I understood every part of the treatment. The nurses were attentive and always made me feel like I was in good hands.

I highly recommend Dr. Philbrick! Wait time was short. Dr. Philbrick listened to my concerns and asked the appropriate questions. Instead of opting for surgery he recommended a time for natural healing. He is very compassionate and empathetic. His bedside manner is phenomenal.
