Joseph Martin
M.D.

I’ve finally gotten to the point where knee replacement was unavoidable. This is significant, because a previous surgeon seemed self-serving and arrogant. After damaging my knee with an unclean injection, I dropped him for ORA, specifically Dr. Martin. His level-headed approach built my confidence. No undue pressure. Cool guy. He’s assuring a better outcome with excellent pre-op.

Dr. Martin took his time to listen to my concerns. He also walked me through the next steps and various options we could try. Great to work with and very kind.

Staff is always courteous and efficient. Doctor has a great bedside manner, is not too busy to thoroughly explain every detail of the diagnosis and treatment plan, I do not feel like there is a better way to heal orthopedic injuries than His philosophy towards healing, as well as his manner and methods of treating not only the entire person but the entire family in the case of an injured minor or an injured partner.

Michael Gahagan—-Dr Martin totally respected my decision to opt for a steroid injection at this time as opposed to a knee replacement, which I realize I will eventually need.

Straightforward, kind and helped make a plan to monitor my knee pain.

ORA is an efficient, well-run medical practice. My experience there with Dr Martin for a hip replacement was nothing but positive from my initial appointment that determined I needed the procedure to the follow up 10 days later. I'll return in 4 weeks to show off my progress with the help of exercises and physical therapy. My hip is pain free!

need a new knee

Absolutely outstanding care. Everyone has listened to my concerns and are working towards a full recovery.

Great experience. Received injection in right knee and feel absolutely great now. Dr. Mark is friendly, professional and a great listener. Enjoy meeting him.

I was so happy with Dr. Martin and my new hip. My followup appts were helpful with some new suggestions. I was very confident in him and hope he will be still practicing when it is time to do the other hip.

He listened to me and gave me the care I expected. He also told me how to help my left leg get stronger.

Dr Martin is amazing. My grandpa sees him for his knee pain and he is so kind and compassionate about everything. We highly recommend Dr. Martin

My grandpa sees Dr. Martin and we could not say enough good things about him. He is kind, compassionate, truly knows what he is doing and just an amazing doctor! Highly highly recommend Dr. Martin.

He was very companionable about my problem and I would go back to him any time

He was helpful in answering questions pre knee surgery and made you feel comfortable

I’m having some unexpected problems with my hip and he managed to squeeze me in. I appreciated it!

Great doctor and great office personnel!

Dr Martin performed a total knee replacement for me. He was extremely professional, kind, and open to any questions I had. His whole staff could not have been more accommodating. I’m recuperating well and looking forward to getting back to my old self. I highly recommend Dr Martin.

They are always so courteous and thorough.

Doctors are very knowledgeable very timely on getting you into your appointment

I feel that Dr Martin is very qualified in his practice and I believe he could help me.The only thing I forgot to ask him is after the surgery could I be able to walk better again instead of walking with a cane or a walker.

I have been a patient of Dr. Martin since 2014 through one knee and both hips and now another knee. I’ve been able to walk and hike and enjoy the outdoors because of his expertise and skills. Thank you Dr. Martin!

Dr. Martin is a very pleasant and knowledgeable person who replaced my right knee and I am going back to have my left knee replaced. I highly recommend Dr., Martin.

The employees are very polite and helpful. Dr Martin is polite helpful

Dr Martin performed a hip replacement revision just 6 days after the original after I fell and broke the femur. Fantastic outcome and wonderful compassion to help my wife through the ordeal

My visit recently with Dr Martin was everything I might have hoped for in medical care. He was knowledgeable and generous with his time in sharing that knowledge. He answered all of my questions in a forthright, complete, and understandable manner. Having worked as a registered nurse for many years, I am very picky about my medical care and Dr Martin fulfills all of my expectations!

Dr Martin has done 2 surgeries for me and recently I had a follow up appointment with him related to recent pain in my knee. He did a very thorough evaluation, reviewed xrays & bloodwork with me. Spent time explaining what he recommended for treatment. I left my appointment with great faith in his assessment & recommended treatment.

Absolutely the best and knows his stuff!

Awesome doctor, answered all questions and great beside manners.

Dr. Martin did a total hip replacement-- excellent services, always had time to answer questions, extremely informative and professional. Great connection with the physical therapists -- definitely recommend!

It was the best decision I ever made for my health concerns and care. I had a total right hip replacement. I have fully regained my normalcy of ambulating. I'm blessed for Dr Martin's excellent services. His staff are professional. ORA cares about their patients. Plus they have an excellent connection with a physical therapy organization. I was very fortunate. I had one of best therapist in Mallory. Through the whole procedure they all supported me.

Great patient communication and empathy. My favorite Doctor.

Awesome thanks

I have the best of care that I could ask for with ORA and Dr Joe Martin. He ALWAYS listens to my concerns and takes his time with explaining my options! I would NOT go anywhere else for my aches in my joints!

I had a left total knee replacement on 10/25/21. One month later I had a right total hip replacement. I wanted to have both done in a timely manner in order to be prepared for a trip that was planned in February. As a retired PT, I was familiar with Dr. Martin’s stellar reputation and was confident in a positive outcome. I couldn’t have asked for an easier and more rapid recovery. I am back doing everything I used to be able to do before the knee and hip pain became unbearable. His Physician Assistant, Mark Hichborn, was great as well!

Excellent surgeon. Did both of my hips. No more pain! Highly recommend.

With in ten days I am walking with out a cane or a walker. The worst pain I am having is on my lower shin bone.

Very pleasant experience, extremely informative and professional.

Dr Martin spent a lot of time with me during the examination. Ensuring I understood my options for treatment. Asking for my feedback making me feel conformable. Only then made recommendations treatment. Overall the treatment ant outcome has been excellent.

Dr. Joseph Martin was wonderful explaining what to expect with my hip replacement surgery. He had time to answer questions and made me feel prepared for surgery. On the day of surgery, Dr. Martin talked with me and everything went as expected. Thank you for improving my life and taking away the pain!!

Dr Martin is an excellent surgeon. I had both knees replaced within 8 weeks of each other and the second one healed even sooner than the first. I contribute my success to Dr Martin and following his excellent guidance exactly as directed. He is dedicated to helping his patients!

1st appt. Seemed like a nice, knowledgeable person.

Well explained procedure and provided exercises to help build strength in legs.

Dr. Martin and his staff took excellent care of me. My right knee replacement was in need of a revision surgery. He performed the surgery with a great outcome. My left knee also needed replacement. That outcome was excellent as well. Thanks to Dr. Martin for helping me get through this trying time. I am now back to work pain free.

I've had one knee surgery through ORA. I've also come here for a foot problem. Both doctors have been very nice and very helpful. Along with all the staff. I'm going back if needed.

Fantastic practice! From Urgent to Surgical Care, Dr. Martin and the ORA staff provided exceptional pre to post surgical care for my husband and I. We will always choose Dr. Martin and the ORA staff.

Dr. Martin just did my total knee and will be doing a total hip on the opposite side in 3 weeks so that I can recover sufficiently for my tropical vacation in February! I trust him completely and I am thrilled with my progress so far. After only a week and a half I’m able to walk without any device and doing stairs safely. I’m going to resume my yardwork tomorrow! This would not be possible to have recovered this quickly without his knowledge and experience in performing these orthopedic surgeries.

Dr. Martin replaced my left knee in 2020. I am happy with results, however I am now having problems with my right knee. He was warm and attentive. He reviewed my history, asked questions, did a thorough exam and explained his findings. He made recommendations on when to follow up and treatment options.

Appointments are easy to get, never have to wait too long, Dr. Martin is great, thorough, wonderful bedside manner and fixes the problem!

This is the best place to go for any orthopedic problems. Everyone is nice, helpful, and listens to you.

Fast, friendly service. ORA was highly recommended to me by everyone I know in town. After just 2 visits, I definitely see why. Very professional staff, great doctor (Martin), and they have helped me a lot so far. I highly recommend them.

I'm writing this for my husband Doug Stewart. "It was a perfect surgery and healing much faster than anticipated. Thank you Dr. Martin."

Doctor Martin did my revision on my left knee after a fall two years prior. He did a fantastic job !! Even though I wanted to go back to work earlier, he had me wait the full 12 weeks of my FMLA which was the right call. I'm am now back at work with no pain. It's amazing how much better I feel !! And am now working with a general physician to lose some weight. I don't know if at some point I will need a revision on my right knee, but if I do, I hope Doctor Martin will still be practicing to be able to do it. Thank you so much !!

ORA is great. This was my second knee replacement done by Dr. Martin. He does a great job. He also has great PAs. Mark Hichborn has been a great help with follow-up visits, recommendations, and giving cortisone shots. You couldn’t ask for a better team.

Dr. Martin is an expert orthopedic surgeon. I have had great results and quick recovery for both my hip and knee replacement surgeries performed by Dr. Martin. He is dedicated to his patients and an overall great guy.

Dr. Martin is a very thorough orthopedic surgeon when it comes to explaining procedures, and alternative options. He will be doing my knee surgery soon. Also, the nurses, receptionist and x-ray technician are very helpful and nice.

Very good Doc explained everything very well

I have had two TKR done by Dr. Martin. The first a few years back was worked wonderful. The second is less than 2 weeks out but well on the way to be good as new.

I had both of my hips replaced in 2 years. Dr Martin and staff were available and quick to responded to questions or issues I had.

Outstanding surgery replacement of left knee and outstanding follow up care. Would definitely use again.

Hip replacement and follow up went very well no pain

Doctor Joseph Martin and PA Mark Hichborn!

I appreciate the excellent care...And Compassion from the Staff...Dr Martin did my knee replacement 8 years ago and March 29,2021 the other knee...11 days later removed the staples by Medical Assistant Jamie...She was very caring....You will know the minute You step thru the Door... VERY PROFESSIONAL CARING and SENSITIVE STAFF....THANK YOU TO ALL INVOLVED!

Great dr explains everything well with the help of dr mark

Dr. Joseph Martin and I have collaborated regarding my health since May 2009 starting with an unscheduled injury during a weekend holiday thru my most recent second hip surgery. His direct, kind and professional intellect provided me with health outcomes that improved my quality of life ten fold. The ORA staff is professional, efficient and treat patients with kind regard. Highly recommend.

I have gone to Dr Martin since 2001. That staff is always friendly and helpful. Dr Martin is very skilled, patient, friendly, and explains things very well.

Dr.Martin and his staff helped manage my arthritis to avoid replacing my knee as long as possible. When the time came they got me scheduled and completed my surgery as quickly as possible during the pandemic. Thank you

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 can’t 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 can’t 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.
