Dr Calcei is a well known orthopedic surgeon. He takes his time with all his patients. If I have to wait more than 15 minutes, that's no problem, because he will give me the time I need too.
I had a very good experience with Jacob Calcei. I was pleased with the visit. He explained his diagnosis and made a specific recommendation for my treatment going forward. He recommended a ***. I need to decide if I will have Calcei do the surgery or one other orthopedic surgeon I have recently seen for a second opinion. I would feel very comfortable with Calcei.
Initial meeting with the doctor, very satisfied to date, was able to schedule an initial appt very quickly and the doctor and his team scheduled the necessary procedure very very quickly
The doctor was excellent. ***

Outstanding care, staff, & Dr.
He is great. Got me feeling better and getting back to work way before I expected.
Incredible care and detail
Good
Dr. Calcei is a rock star. Post knee replacement surgery I developed intense scar tissue formation which was not alleviated by a previous MUA ,Daily PT, shockwave therapy or dry needling. I contacted Dr. Calcei due to his reputation for managing soft tissue injuries. He recommended Orthoscopic surgery to remove scar tissue in order to reduce pain and increase mobility. I am thrilled with my results and truly feel that I have my life back. Dr. Calcei is a miracle worker. He is not only kind, knowledgeable, and thorough, he is my hero. He deserves1,000 stars. Thank you UH.
All good. Very helpful
