Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.October 30, 2024ORTHOPAEDICS CENTERMy shoulder reversal was very successful. I'm totally happy with the care given by dr Joyce. Definitely will get left shoulder surgery by him
October 29, 2024ORTHOPAEDICS CENTERDr. Joyce is very compassionate, caring, and appears knowledgable regarding the elbow. Mostly, I appreciate his concern regarding avoidance if infection.
October 24, 2024ORTHOPAEDICS CENTERDr Joyce is a great surgeon. He provides and email and a cell number to contact him with any questions. He follows up with phone calls. Our experience with him has been excellent!
October 17, 2024ORTHOPAEDICS CENTERI loved that he listened, was compassionate and caring, Gave me hope for my condition. I would reccomend him to anyone.
October 15, 2024FARMINGTON HEALTH CENTERProbably the best experience I've had with surgery. Very committed to making sure that my questions were answered
October 15, 2024FARMINGTON HEALTH CENTERDr. C. Joyce is extraordinarily competent in all aspects of his medical talents. He is most certainly a cut above. When choosing a doctor, bed side manner is an important factor in addition to medical competance. When needing a surgeon, you couldn't care less about anything else but getting the best ¿cutter.¿ With Chris Joyce, you get the very best of both.
October 13, 2024ORTHOPAEDICS CENTERExcellent Doctor
October 13, 2024FARMINGTON HEALTH CENTERHe's compassionate and eases any worries that you may have.
October 12, 2024FARMINGTON HEALTH CENTERI would highly recommend Dr. Joyce.
