Dr. Nottage is the best! I had ACL reconstruction almost 20 years ago and my knee as strong as ever If I ever have an issue again he will be my orthopedic surgeon no question. I always make sure my insurance includes Dr. Nottage! He is an expert, a great doctor, and a professional. I did not feel pressured to have surgery - he laid out the alternatives and gave me choices - he was the third orthopedic surgeon opinion I got, and he was absolutely the best. I have referred him over and over again. I have referred him over and over again. One of my best friends had ACL and Cartlidge surgery and she is very athletic still to this day almost 20 years later as well. He invented the incision used on my knee and it's almost invisible! I am grateful I found Dr. Nottage.

Dr. Nottage has saved me from a life of inactivity. I have been seeing doctors for years now for my knee pain. After an evaluation, Dr. Nottage took an Xray of my hip; I have osteoarthritis. The pain in my knee was referred from my hip! He was the only professional to accurately diagnose my pain. Thank you Dr. Nottage!

I had bilateral knee replacements and of course this is major - I interviewed three doctors before I decided Dr. Nottage was the best of the best! He is a doctor's doctor, and my experience was great - sure it hurt, but what a fabulous result. My knees are both strong, painless, and I cannot remember what it was like before. He is so pleasant, dry sense of humor, made me laugh when I cried -Amazing doctor!
