I saw Dr. Curzan for a shoulder problem about 4 years ago. He fixed it after several visits. About 6 months I started experiencing knee pain and after several visits he suggested surgery. Dr. Curzan got me scheduled for surgery and his staff prepared me for it. It all went very smoothly and I was very impressed with the practice. What really surprised me is Dr. Curzan gave me his home number after my surgery and told me to call him if I had any trouble. I didn't but 24 hours later he called me at home!!!! He just wanted to check and see how I was doing. He is a wonderful doctor and I highly recommend him!

I went here when I badly sprained my ankle. They were wonderful, and I was taken care of promptly and efficiently. They made sure I was going to be comfortable!

I was not impressed in the least with this office, its staff, or the doctor that I saw. I brought my 8 year old in for a broken bone and was met with an incredibly condescending doctor. He did not listen to our questions or concerns and was obviously less than thrilled to be working with us. It was appalling that from the moment I walked into that office, I was treated as if I didn't deserve to be there. The front desk staff were rude and certainly less than helpful. My child and I left there and immediately went to a different ortho where we met with a staff that actually cared as well as an amazing doctor. I have since spoken to many others about this office and am yet to get a positive response regarding service or care. Consider Raleigh Ortho if you are looking for a great place to be treated.

I called in an emergency, in a severe amount of pain, acting as nice as I possibly could trying to explain to them that I needed an appoinment ASAP. Instead of working with me, the poor southern receptionist did just about the RUDEST thing I have ever experienced in my life which was hang up on me because I suppose she couldn't take the pressure. I am a docile creature and was by no means harrassing, rude or angry in anyway shape or form, just trying to see if an appointment was available. If these are the type of people they hire on the front lines you can count me out.
Honest to gosh, one of the rudest reatments i have ever gotten from a Drs office. Will never even touch this place
Cons: Rude Service

I have to agree with the SLOW analysis that someone else made. On my first visit, they didn't call me till over an hour from my scheduled appt. time (and I had arrived 20 minutes *early* with paperwork already done). My second visit was better since I had them book me super-early in the AM. My third visit they called me into the examining room only about 15 minutes late but then I sat there freezing for 35 minutes waiting for the doc. Then they don't apologize, they act like that's the way things are supposed to be.
I've had 2 docs there so far. The first seemed aloof and like he didn't care what was wrong with me, he wanted to do cortisone shot, wait a few weeks with immobilization, and then when at my followup I said I was still dysfunctionally messed up, he sent me on my way without ordering any diagnostic tests. He just said, well, start using it more and come back if it gets worse. Totally not what I wanted to hear, given my functional problem and the high co-pay I have to shell out for a specialist visit! A couple of months later, in constant pain, I decided to give them another try. I called and told the front desk I wanted a different doctor. They said sure. This second doctor seemed perhaps a little more interested but the exam again took about 1 minute (like the first time). He ordered a diagnostic test, which was good, but told me that if the test revealed a problem, he'd have to refer me to a wrist specialist. I don't understand why the front desk didn't just hook me up with a wrist specialist to begin with?
I can't comment on their surgical skills -- yet. I'm unsure whether I will be comfortable with letting one of them cut me open, honestly. They seem so brusque! I'm afraid they will spend about 3 minutes on the surgery!
Pros: They have a good reputation
Cons: I haven't yet experienced why they have a good reputation

This is the slowest office I have ever been to. I had an appointment at 2:00, wasn't seen by a doctor until 4:30 and even at that I had to leave my "room" where I was waiting and flag a nurse to tell her I had to be on the road by 5:00. Finally, I was seen by a doctor, however, was told to ice, rest and take advil....when actually I needed PT. What a waste of my time. Don't go to this place unless you have a fat book and nothing else to do for the day.

I'd been to several doctors about my chronic knee problems. One didn't strike me as trustworthy, another barely looked at my problem and prescribed PT. Dr. Martini and his staff are professional, courteous, fast, and very knowledgable. I've had one knee operated on, ten days ago now, and I've had so little pain. I went in today unexpectedly and got to see Dr. Martini briefly, I was only expecting to see a PA. Dr. Martini is very easy to talk to, very nice right off the bat. The fact that he's the team orthopedic physician for the Carolina Hurricanes was a wonderful bonus to learn about him, and now 10 days post-op I know why. If you are in the area and need an orthopedic surgeon definitely see Dr. Martini!! I have never felt so comfortable at a doctor's office before, never before for any doctor.

Dr Martini is a wonderful physician.As is the case with many thorough and caring physicians, the wait was longer than I wanted, but so worth it. He listened and examined me throughly and made his recccomendations carefully. He is very personable and I would refer anyone to him

Dr. Martini listens and treats you where you are in your life. He designs your care regimen to achieve results that will provide you the best quality of life possible. He is a skillful surgeon but opts for what best meets your needs; that is not always surgery. He has a great 'bedside' manner and is incredibly easy to talk to. He has been my ortho doctor since he came to this area and I have referred many people to him. All of them have been very satisfied patients. He is an asset to the medical community in the Triangle area.
Pros: Martini's skills, people & medical, Performance PT next
Cons: need more parking, office staff :-(
