"Dr. Dearborn is thorough and honest as the day is long. I had a knee replacement done elsewhere that did not work well at all. Dr. D. carefully studied my case, identified the problem... and fixed the problem to my satisfaction."
— Patient Review (Vitals)"Dr. Dearborn is the doctor's doc. Everyone knows that he is the best, so I felt confident having him take me through bilateral hip replacements... What I heard was true and actually..."
— Patient Review (Yahoo Local)"You guys are lucky he did a good job on you, but for me I’m living in hell because of the pain he had done on me... I had a hip replacement done by Dr. Dearborn in 2013 instead of fixing the problem it caused me more pains and agony."
