I absolutely love Dr. Petrera! I knew right away I picked the right doctor. He’s so knowledgeable and experienced, and based on his outstanding reviews and credentials, I made the appointment for severe knee pain. We went through the X-rays and course of action, and I couldn’t be happier. He’s super friendly, and easy to talk to, and I promise you won’t be sorry trusting him with your care! Thank you, Dr. Petrera! You’re the best! (On a side note, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention how great his office staff has been! I have been to two locations now, and at both locations I felt like I was at Chick-fil-A, lol with how polite and friendly they were! I tried to call a couple of times for any cancellations and they did not mind, and offered me the opportunity to call every day if I wanted to. They genuinely meant it and I could not have been more appreciative of their kindness and understanding) Bottom line, excellent doctors and excellent staff!

I needed advice on my knee. He was very honest and referred me to a specialist. He also gave me a Cortizone shot in my knee. This was the very first non painful shot I ever had in over 10 years. In fact he used no numbing spray. I asked for it and he told me to look away and then said - it’s all done! No pressure pain- nothing. It was an absolute pleasure.

I was so relieved when I met Dr. Petrera, I had met several surgeons and just wasn’t pleased, when I met Dr. Petrera I was immediately impressed with his demeanor; professionalism and knowledge , informing me in layman terms just how we would proceed with my knee replacement, he couldn’t have been any nicer. The office staff was exceptional as well each person I came in contact with was courteous answering any questions that I had reassuring me along the way. I left with such confidence that I had chosen the perfect surgeon for my knee replacement and would highly recommend Dr. Petrera to my family and friends. 5 star all the way!!!

From the moment the receptionist greeted us warmly and leaving as well, the entire staff couldn’t have been friendlier, professional and accommodating. Dr. Petrera set me at ease explaining in layman’s terms my options. I was recommended to Dr. Petrera by friends and will do the same to others.
