Dr. Reber took care of two shoulders years apart and could not have been happier. Today I called Star Orthopedics and they told me he retired two years ago...Bummer.

I've now had surgery on both shoulders by Dr. Reber and I'm extremely satisfied. I personally worked in an orthopedic related profession for 25 years and I never saw a patient with a better outcome than I've experienced.

After surgery and complaints of pains in the shoulder, he kept saying it would go away. Several months passed: still pain. His response? Hmm unusual. Still have pain 5 months after surgery. AND he kinds wrote me off.

I had arthroscopic knee surgery done by Dr Reber. It was a terrible experience. I was told recovery would be 6 weeks. 8 MONTHS later I have more pain than before surgery. The office phone system did not work and there was not access to staff during non business hours. They over medicate making the procedure complicated. Do yourself a favor and choose another provider.

I am very disappointed with the outcome from arthroscopic knee surgery. More pain and problems than before surgery. Follow up was difficult.

If I had to do it all over again, I would definitely return to Dr. Reber. He was professional, knowledgeable, and very straight forward with diagnosis and recommendations. I felt I was in good hands with Dr. Reber as well as his staff and the surgery center used. I am very pleased with the results from my shoulder surgery!!
