  • “Dr. Matthew Fouse was attentive and had me show him my problem areas of pain, then sent me in for further tests to find out the problem. He took the time to listen and observe and I am happy with the results so far. I would not hesitate to recommend him.”

  • “Dr. Dunn is one amazing doctor he always makes the time to answer all my questions with a genuine concern. I never feel rushed and I just love his staff Stephanie and Rich are just as caring! Last year he did my C6-7 now I have issues with my L4-5after my experience last year there is no one Doctor or staff I trust more then Dr. Dunn, Stephanie and Rich his PA to take better care of me then that staff! You can't even see the scar from my first surgery last year. Anytime that someone tells me they have any back issues I am always referring them to Dr. Dunn. Healthcare in Vegas is seriously lacking good providers and so is bedside manner so for that alone I say thank you Dr. Dunn and staff for rising above and remembering what it is to be a patient!!”

  • “When I went to see him, my pain management doctor was talking about putting a stimulator in my spine after getting my films back it turned to something way more serious I was having a lot of pain, but having 3 previous surgeries I figured this was what I was left to live with. Dr. Perry literally changed my life, he agreed to see me and told me what was going on back there and made me believe he could not only fix it I would be better off for it. I had been told that before and it never went that way. I have the surgery, recovery time was so much shorter and easier than before. I had had hardware put in my back before and I could always feel the weather change and got stiff. I can do so much more than before I walk more I don't have any right hip pain I am off all pain meds after 20+ years on them it was amazing. I have a much better life since the surgery and it is not giving me the pain, any pain I have now is no big deal comparatively,, and being off the meds amazing. Dr. Perry is my hero.”

  • “Dr. Dunn is just one of the best doctors I have ever been too. He was patient, kind and caring. He took all the time I needed to make sure that I understood what was going on with my condition as well as all my options. I am in the people business and I highly recommend him to my clients at work. Some people already know what an amazing doctor he is. I barely have a scar from the surgery I even forget that I have one on my throat, as his work was flawless, even within a month of surgery people couldn't tell unless I pointed it out. Doctors don't seem to have that bedside manner anymore, however Dr. Dunn is the rare ones that seems to remember to put the patient first. And when your in a bunch a pain, that means the world!”

  • “Once again Dr. Baldauf has done an excellent job with another knee replacement for me. His concern and commitment to me as a patient is worth noting, and he prepares himself as fully as possible for whatever he may encounter once surgery begins. In my case he didn't have the easiest time with either of my knee surgeries because of unusual circumstance in each case, but he rose to the occasion both times and I am walking well for the first time in many, many years. I would recommend Dr. Baldauf and his team without hesitation. I can only imagine what kind of success he'd have when faced with an uncomplicated surgery! Thanks again for your great care Dr. Baldauf!! ”

  • “My partial knee replacement allows me to return to the tennis courts and play golf without the pain I've experienced for many years. The procedure was out-patient and I was walking on my own within a few days. Minimal physical therapy was required and after a year. I'm still pain free.”

  • “I have been coming to see Dr. Dunn from California since 2002, from an awful accident. He fixed my spine surgery that I had done in Los Angeles, at Cedar Sinai. Since then, unfortunately I have had seven more accidents, none of them my fault. I would not trust any other spine surgeon with my back. Dr. Dunn has been an absolute blessing for me, and my family. ”

  • “I highly recommend Desert Ortho Center if you have any problem with your shoulder. I had a torn rotator cuff plus the two muscles had to be surgically repaired. Dr. Matthew Fouse gave my shoulder a new lease on life. He is Better than the Best! Explained the entire procedure and precisely what needed to be repaired. Through conversation I felt and feel total confidence in his skills. The Therapy Department is fantastic and I am exercising to obtain to reach my goal of playing my favorite sport, tennis!”

  • “Dr. Huff is a kind, compassionate and competent surgeon. He has been extremely supportive to me through my hip fracture healing process. Having recently being diagnosed with breast cancer and deciding on treatment options, I was able to discuss my concerns on how treatment may or may not affect the continuing healing process with Dr. Huff. He took time to discuss my situation and offer his expert opinion, and did so in such a compassionate way. My hip fracture is healing well and I attribute that to the surgical expertise and care that I have received from Dr. Huff and his team.”
