- “I had to find a new pain management doctor because of insurance. I was very pleased with my former doctor but I'm so happy that I had to change doctors! I've been very pleased with not only Dr. Gutman but also with the entire office staff. With my history of post polio syndrome, my pain management can be at times difficult for me to manage. Dr. Gutman is care and compassionate and she has a great knowledge of dealing with management of pain. She never rushes you when she comes in the room to exam you and she truly cares about the whole body not just what part of your body is in pain. Dr. Gutman and the entire Reconstructive Orthopedic practice I would recommend to anybody who needs to see a specialist.”– KathleenPatient Rating:

He took his time explaining all the things I had to do when I went home and what to expect in the coming weeks. I would go to him again in an instant.”– RosemaryPatient Rating:

- “I've been a patient of Dr. Gray for about 25yrs now and have always had nothing but the best care from him and his staff. I now see multiple doctors and physician assistants at the new office in Moorestown and Marlton and have had nothing but the best care given to me from each and every person In the 2 facilities that I've been to. I will continue to go to Reconstructive Ortho as long as I am in this area, and I'm constantly referring friends and family to the office. Most recently my granddaughter had an unfortunate skateboard accident and broke her ankle. I had my daughter take her to Reconstructive from the word broken and she was treated like a princess throughout her entire experience with them. What I like just as much as the Doctors is that there is a doctor there for whatever issue you're having, from your head to your toes they can handle it all. Thanks for everything Reconstructive Ortho, your professional care and convenience is what matters and is appreciated greatly.”– Mark E.Patient Rating:

Treating Doctor:
- “Dr.Porat was professional and responsive to questions/concerns I had about my hip replacement. He operates on patients not x-rays and that made me feel comfortable when it was time for me to proceed. Immediately after I could tell the pain I had endured for 10+ years had gone away. Post surgery, he remained involved through rehab to make sure there were no issues or infections and my rehabilitation moved quickly towards getting me mobile again. I'm looking forward to regaining a semi-active lifestyle pain-free thanks to Dr. Manny Porat.”– EhrenPatient Rating:

- “I went to see Dr. John Mariani because of his great reputation of the man to see for your Knees. I had worked in family practice field for 15 years. My husband and I were planning a vacation to Italy and I was worried I would not be able to walk to all the sites we had planned. I was having problems with my knees and so who else would I go to. Hearing the fabulous responses from patients I decided It was my turn. I am glad I did. I have arthritis in both knees. I had a needle injection in both knees for 3 weeks. I can walk better now and am starting to walk for longer periods at a time. I am trying to build up my leg strength on a daily basis so this way I can be able to walk through Italy without difficulty. Office staff professional and nice, office is updated and neat. I highly recommend this office.”– TheresaPatient Rating:

- “Prior to having TKR on both knees I had a 6 cm baker cyst behind my left knee and a little smaller one on my right knee. They could not remove the cysts they said I needed to fix the problem that I needed TKR. I could not go up and down the stairs without pain, could not walk more then 15 minutes without my knee doubling in size. I could not squat, was restricted on my exercising (could not do leg lifts without bending my knees. I had TKR on my left leg 3/16/16 and on my right 4/27/16. Today in just 10 weeks I am back at the gym doing my spin class, leg lifts with my legs completely straight. I have full range of motion (would like to thank Angel my physical therapist and Virtua in Motion in Washington Township for helping me) attained a bending degree of 135 and 0 degree straight within 4 weeks after surgery. I am able to go up and down stairs without holding on to the railing I have not done that for over 10 years. I have people stopping me at my gym and elsewhere asking me where did I get my TKR done because they know people that have had it done over a year ago and are not doing as well. I tell them I had the best Dr. Schoifet at Virtua. Dr. Schoifet and his staff have thought of everything to make TKR a simple, painless process. The phrase "Got my life back" applies 100%. Thank you Dr. Schoifet, Sandy Dilullo, Kristen. You were all great!!”– AnnPatient Rating:

He told me what to expect and about how soon I would be able to do the things I enjoyed and he had a very positive attitude which made me comfortable about my decision. Dr. Reid replaced my right hip and my left knee and as soon as summer is over I will be making an appointment to have my right knee replaced. the staff is awesome very friendly and very helpful and you can tell by the way they put your needs first I would highly recommend reconstructive orthopedics to anyone considering joint replacement.”– LarryPatient Rating:

- “I fractured my shoulder on while on vacation in Florida. I was treated during my stay by physicians and had just begun rehab. On my return trip home, it was suggested that I choose a doctor to see immediately. Dr. Mariani saw me the day after I got home. He reviewed my records, did some further testing and prescribed additional rehab so that my healing process was not interrupted. He was very kind and professional and I'm grateful for his expertise and his care.”– CarolPatient Rating:

He is always friendly and takes the time to listen to me, explain to me what is going on and then helps me in whatever way he can. He is very professional and very knowledgeable but also makes me feel like he cares.

Treating Doctor:
- “His P.A. is great! She really helped me feel better about all the worries I had post surgery and was so blessed to find such professional doctors. Dr. Sanfilippo seemed to be the most knowledgeable doctor I have ever seen before, and I have seen quite a few, he got straight to the point and told me exactly how I felt and he was right, I was very lucky to have such a professional facility to see me as well! All your staff is great from the front desk to Corp. most of all Diana your workers compensation lady and Lilianna helped me get things through my company to approve then as that was a very hard and frustrating process, but these women would answer their phones or call me back within minutes and we're just excellent at their job, and deserves recognition, this is why I sent a letter to your corporate office for their outstanding jobs.”– DennisPatient Rating:
