Ive never had a broken bone. I felt the staff did a fine job communicating with me on a level I could understand
Dr. Joseph Martin is a class act! Excellent bedside manner. He explains your procedure thoroughly with a great depth of knowledge and by gets right to the point. What a genuine and caring individual who shows appreciation for his patients!
Dr. Martin gave me a total hip replacement. His expertise, knowledge, and guidance helped me get quality of life back that I hadn't realized I was missing. He is friendly and professional. A true gem of a doctor.
They take good care of you.
Very good
Great experience! Received injection and it is helping already.
Excellent
I had a successful surgery by Dr Martin-I'm surprised at the vast difference a total hip would make. I no longer have hip pain!
Dr. Martin, was both professional and reassuring about condition. he put me at ease, before my surgery. in all, I was very happy with both my pre-surgery and post-surgery experience. he and his staff were helpful and very nice to work with. my surgery as of today has been a huge success and I'm very thankful to actor Martin and his staff.
Dr. Martin is a kind, compassionate individual who is quite experienced in his field. He's replaced my left knee back in 2015 and I had very little to no pain after the incision healed completely. I would recommend him to anyone who is experiencing sever knee pain or had a knee injury.
Dr Martin is very professional and caring physician and truly wants what is best for his patients . I had a total knee two weeks ago and have had awesome success due to his clinical skills. I am walking with a cane and have greater than 90 degree flexion and full extension, I do my exercises that his team has given me faithfully and ice my knee as needed... I am totally pain free. I would highly recommend if you needed to have a total knee to have Dr Martin perform you surgery and listen to the team that he has acquired for your own success and pain free living...
Very professional. From a patient. It was one of the best appointments I ever had for a healthcare issue. His staff was amazing and compassion. Very talented and experienced. The whole process was amazing. I had alot confidence, trust that I had the right facility, doctor and a supportive staff. I strongly recommend ORA. It's definitely a five star rating.
Dr. Martin listens patiently and answers all my questions. I've only seen him a few times, but I've never felt he had one foot out the door when we were talking. Dr. Martin is soft-spoken, friendly, and very professional. His staff is also friendly, courteous, and professional.
I visited Dr. Joe Martin for the 1st time in early November 2019. I was undergoing some physical therapy for a very sore hip that has been losing flexibility for 10+ years. This appointment was a rather quick one, but I was assured it was OK to continue PT to try to relieve the pain. I again visited Dr. Martin in mid July 2020 as my pain is increasing in my hip joint. This was a longer and more detailed visit. Dr. Martin explained in more detail the arthritic condition of my hip joint and what a hip replacement will entail. I am an active retiree who continues to be active with cycling, walking, hiking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing. Dr. Martin explained how I can continue w/pain meds and/or a shot of cortisone. I know I will probably need a hip replacement before too long and I would feel confident in having Dr. Martin perform it.
Dr Martin did both of my knees. I like him and I trust him!
I had a great experience getting my hip replacement.
Very personable. Very professional. Answers all questions .
I canβt say enough about the care Dr Martin and his staff provided for me. Dr Martin is a very knowledgeable and skilled surgeon. He was recommended to me and with my experience (total hip replacement)would also recommend him to anyone. To everyone who participated in my care I would like to say thank you. Todd Schommer, DDS
My experience with my hip replacement was fantastic. I felt no pain at all. I was able to go home the day after surgery.
Wonderful
Everything went as Dr. Martin said it would. You canβt ask for better than that.
Dr Martin is probably the best doctor I've had an experience with. I thank him every time I see him
Dr Martin is very professional and caring.
Dr. Joe Martin and his staff replaced my left knee 2 weeks ago, and from what I can tell to date, did a terrific job. The procedure was well described in the pre-op appointments, as well as what to expect post-op. I just had my staples removed yesterday, and once again Dr. Martin was very caring and compassionate. Additionally, Nikki in PT has been awesome! I know that with her knowledge and assistance, I will be close to being fully mobile in a relatively short period of time. All of the ORA family have been great to work with, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
I didn't know Dr Martin before my surgery. He was recommended by a neighbor. I wasn't sure what to expect. From the initial visit I was certain I made the right decision. Dr Martin was clear, informative, attentive and patient. The surgical experience also was smooth and fluid. It actually was an enjoyable experience. It was a walk in the park in comparison to the years living with my bad hip. I highly recommend Dr. Martin.
Great doctor, surgeon and team says it all thanks.
Dr Martin was direct and professional in all of his dealings with me. I am now less than two weeks out from my hip replacement and the pain I had dealt with for two years is gone. I am dealing with PT and recovering form the surgery but I am confident that will go well
On 08-19-2019, Dr Joseph Marten replaced my right knee joint, and the results have been outstanding. After 3 days, I did not feel the need for a cane or walker. Physical therapy is most important for a full recovery, but it still depends on a great beginning. Genesis East staff were great, and the food was pretty good! Not looking forward to doing left knee, but have full confidence for similar experience.
The Great care they provide I have a lot of trust in them
Had a total knee replacement done by Dr. Martin. It has been a very easy recovery. The scar is very thin. I am really glad my friend recommended him.
I had an outstanding outcome. Dr. Martin and his staff were excellent. Glad I chose to have the knee replacement.
Very busy place but the traffic moved through in a timely manner. Dr. Martin was on task and attentive enough to make me feel he fully understood my issues.
I felt rushed. Did not get all my questioned answered. I am waiting for someone to call me back about my hip surgery. Staff was nice. A very busy place. I am in a lot of pain. I need surgery sooner than later.
Dr. Martin isknowlegable and notices other health problems as well. He explains well and is personable. He is an excellent physician and is highly regarded

Doctor Martin was very thorough on its explanations on the Left knee revision surgery, Explaining possible side effects, and possible complications that could occur.
Dr Martin is very professional and has a great bed side manner and very likeable person and very knowledgeable and his treatment is very effective
Excellent care and advice. Well worth waiting to have my surgery accomplished by the best!
Dr. Martin made a very good job with the fasciotomy on my leg. I highly recommend him. Sergio Nerici.
Dr. Martin replaced my hip in January 2019. I am 100% satisfied with the entire process. Dr. Martin is an excellent surgeon and a true professional
I would recommend ORA for any orthopedic treatment. The doctors there take the time to inform you of the treatment you will need and explain the procedure which is very vital for any type of treatment.
A little wait but excellent care by Dr. Martin
I felt he took more time to listen and answer my questions, both prior to TKR and following surgery. Many other doctors leave you with impression they are to busy and are already thinking about the next patient. Surgery was successful and I would recommend Dr. Martin.
In very good hands w Dr Mark Heckborn, had full x-rays one shot in left knee, one shot in right knee. He took very good care of me
Dr Martin took time to explain my condition and what the solution was.
Doctor Martin and his staff are very friendly and fantastic people. I have had both hips and a right knee replacement done and have no problems. I would recommend ORA and Doctor Martin's staff to anyone!!! ππ
I was very please with my visit with DR. Martin. He was very easy to talk to and explained my procedure. Thanks Doc
Dr Martin did a complete left knee replacement a couple years ago when it was bone on bone and very badly bowed to the outside. The results were perfect. Straight leg now with absolutely no pain after it healed. He recently (appox 12 wks) did a reconstruction of ACL on my right knee after someone pulled in front of my motorcycle. It is still too early to tell the longer term results as I am trying to strengthen it at the gym after finishing physical therapy this week. He told me what type of machines to and not to use.He has been excellent although right knee was damaged badly from motorbike wreck. I definitely suggest using Dr. Martin.
Very good listener. I felt valued.
They took great care of me. Took time with me and explained everything.
Over an hour to wait! Very busy probably because of holiday week! However excellent care!
Yes .team Martin you guys rock!!π€π€
I received excellent care at ORA and in the hospital at Genesis. I would highly recommend Dr. Martin and his staff 100%.
ORA ORTHOPEDICS has been a very good experience. Dr. Joseph Martin and Mark Hichborn PA have been excellent in taking care of my bad knee. The facility and staff are equipped, friendly & very knowledgeable. I had total knee replacement surgery. They are still working with me to make it a good outcome. I would recommend these doctors to anyone. Thanks ORA.
My son broke his arm and the doctors and other staff members were very patient and pleasant to us. Making it very calm and comfortable for my son to get his cast on and off. Even making him smile throughout the process. Thank you!!!
What a great doctor. He evaluates everythin and then tells you his decision. I really appreciate him ordering Physicial Therapy and not surgery. He is very thorough. Thank you Dr Martin!
My physicians at ORA have been wonderful to work with and have given me great care. I would totally recommend them to others for care.
Had complete knee replacement Oct 2015 and Dr Martin did a perfect job. 3 yrs later and until a recent motorcycle accident there was no pain, completely sturdy, straight and exact right length. After accident the new knee has swelling but is expected to make a full recovery. I have recommended Dr Martin to 3 other people but they did not use him. None of their results were perfect like mine have been. I just hope he does not retire for a long time in case I need more work done. Thx Doc
Very pleased with my surgery. Dr. Martin was personal and professional.
I have several times already
Dr Martin was great. He answered all my questions, and made sure I didnβt have anymore before leaving the office. He made sure I knew what my outlook was, and my options for going forward. I will definitely be going back, when all my decisions are finalized.
The staff at Ora was very helpful. Dr Martin was easy to talk to The seminar was perfect for myself to get X-ray and an evaluation. When I am ready to have surgery I would consider Dr Matin to do the surgery. As long as he is in network with my insurance provider Thank you for providing this seminar.
My experience with ORA has been excellent, and I look forward to my surgery expecting the same experience. So far so good.
I have gone to ORA for quite a few years. From the check in ladies to the Nurses and Dr's. they were all great!! Highly recommend them.
Fine surgeon, very organized and professional with good support staff. Comprehensive treatment with hospital and physical therapy. Highly recommend Dr, Martin.
Very pleased
Excellent physicians and staff. Convenient locations and hours. Dr. Martin is wonderful.
