I am very pleased with Dr. Altbuch and his staff. The surgery went very well. He was constantly in touch to find out how things were going. My knee surgery was done over a year ago, and I am doing very well. I would highly recommend Dr. Altbuch. Pete Pertile

Completely satisfied. Dr. Altbuch is amazing. He listens to me and asked me for feedback about my plan of care. He’s thorough and he doesn’t rush me. He makes sure all my questions are answered before I leave and he makes sure I know I can call at any time if I do have a question. I’m very happy to tell others what an amazing doctor he is!

God blessed Dr. Altbuch with a gift to heal. On Jan. 10th, 2022, he replaced my left knee. My knee is "picture perfect", I know because I saw it on an x-ray. I need my right knee replaced, my surgeon choice, Dr. Altbuch.

I have used Dr. Altbuch for my two daughters and most recently my mother had him perform her total shoulder replacement. He is excellent and I highly recommend him.

Dr Altbuch had reviewed my medical situation in advance of my appointment and he entered the exam room with a smile and warm introduction. He explained my situation and offered suggestions for treatment, including recovery, rehabilitation, etc. Pros and cons of the potential procedure were also discussed and he even encouraged me to have my husband on speaker phone during the appointment. His follow up was timely, responsive, candid and not rushed.
