This orthopaedic surgeon was like a wet noodle. No personality, no compassion and is age discrimate. I would have an animal be taken care of by him. Thanks to his lack of interest in really fixing my knee due to torn ACL, cause “I don’t replace ACL in people over 50.” So 3 months later my ACL gave way and was shredded when I fell. So was my meniscus in 2 places. I had another surgeon who was just outstanding in every way repair my knee. Now Wexler’s billing me $185 for doing absolutely nothing. What arrogance!

The worst experience I ever had with a Doctor. In the first visit there on 9/21/19, Wexler looked at a paper and just diagnosed. Little to no explanation just stated I needed a shot. I had to ask Dr. Wexler to take a look at my MRI and explain what was going on. He did not care to know what my primary doctor had already done. He bashed my primary doctor for not doing his job right (the same doctor that referred me to that office). Wexler DID NOT advise me the dos and don'ts before leaving. Within 7 mins he was in and out. 2n... read more

Gary Wexler spent almost no time and did no evaluation. He didn't touch or manipulate my elbow to find pain or issues, asked for zero history, no imaging, no question on severity of pain or cause of pain. No advice on whether I needed to rest the elbow. Actually, DID NOT ASK ABOUT ANYTHING except whether I wanted physical therapy with their people! Left after a couple minutes to "get prescription" and didn't return. 100% useless and total waste of time and money.

Did very little to evaluate my injury. Spends about 10 minutes with you. Don’t understand why I was referred to a knee and shoulder guy when it was a spine injury. No pain meds, prescribed a back brace and PT. Did not approve neck MRI for over a month after injury saying it “wasn’t related”. Works for the insurance companies over patients.

Dr Wexler's care and surgery was superlative. He operated on my 92 year old mother's broken hip. No complications with surgery and great follow up post op with care and attention. Dr Wexler was very responsive in every way. He is the Best WPB has to offer!

I had a terrible experience wit Dr. Wexler. Spent less than 5 minutes with me. Looked at x-ray of back. Told me I had arthritis of both hip and curvature of the spine. Told me I am "wearing out." Did not ask what brought on my terrible back pain. Left office to send in nurse who fitted me for a back brace. She told me he was finished. He did prescribe 2 meds. Just awful experience. Zero personality. Never said goodbye or to call. Are Medicare patients treated differently?
