Dr Nuzzo performed a right full hip replacement for me in 2019. Unfortunately, he is spatially challenged and put it in backwards. Not surprising I could not walk correctly and required a revision. For three years, I went between a wheelchair, a walker and a cane. I was told if I move the wrong way the whole structure could collapse. He had the audacity to blame it on me and my unfit bones. Bone density test showed me to be in the normal range.

I was so fortunate to have Dr. Nuzzo!!! On 1-4-24 I fell in my bathroom and fx my rt femur. On 1-5-24 Dr. Nuzzo did an ORIF on my leg. I live in Colorado Springs and Dr. Nuzzo was helping out at St. Francis Hospital. I've been in the medical field for 37 yrs and I'm saying he is a true blessing to anyone who is fortunate to have him. I so so appreciate him. Thank youKatre Roland.

I am forever grateful to Dr. Nuzzo for my hip replacements. My left hip was replaced in April 2022 and my right hip replacement was September 2023. Prior to these surgeries, I was in a constant pain day & night. I could barely maneuver myself for walking or to perform simple daily task. Dr. Nuzzo was compassionate and caring from day one and assured me that life would get better and it has. I highly recommend Dr. Nuzzo and I greatly appreciate his professionalism, how he easily explained what was going on with my hips and li... read more

Dr. Nuzzo is informative, I did not feel rushed with him, he took his time and answered all my questions. I know others have gone to him with knee and hip surgery and all had great outcomes. I had every confidence in him and his skills, no complaints.

Dr. Nuzzo repaired my torn rotator cuff. He did an excellent job. His personality is pretty straight forward and I’m fine with that. He answered all my questions and I felt confident in him and the procedure.

Dr. Nuzzo performed shoulder joint replacement surgery on my right side in April 2023. All pre/post appointments and the surgery itself exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend him for any orthopedic needs.

Dr. Nuzzo performed my left knee meniscus tear repair/arthroscopic surgery over 8 years ago in Fresno. It was an unbelievably easy recovery and I experienced very little swelling, bruising or pain and did not need any pain medication after the first day or two, nor did I require any physical therapy afterward. I was in my early 50’s, in good health and on no medications. That knee has been 100% since. Now, I am hoping he is available and willing to work on my right knee! I highly recommend Dr. Nuzzo for his state-of-the-art,... read more

I am always 20-30 minutes early for appointments because I respect others time. The doctor saw me exactly 1 hour after my scheduled appointment time. So I waited 1.5 hours. There was no apology or explanation as to what caused the 1 hour delay.
