  Disappointed with Dr. Jonathan Archer at NJ-Orthopedic Specialist Office<br><br>About two to three years ago, I visited NJ-Orthopedic Specialist and saw Dr. Jonathan Archer. I shared my dream of becoming a police officer and joining the academy, which was right around the corner at the time. During my visit, he checked my knee and bluntly told me to forget my dream, insisting I wouldn't be able to complete the academy.<br><br>This was devastating to hear, especially since I had undergone a rough knee surgery two years prior and was working hard to pursue my goal. While I wasn't asking for false hope, I expected a bit more guidance or encouragement. Instead, his words completely crushed my confidence.<br><br>Thankfully, I didn't listen to him. I sought a second opinion, got cleared, and went on to join the academy. Not only did I complete it, but I finished near the top of my class. Now, two years into my job, I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions of my life.<br><br>If

  It doesn't get better than this group! Dr. Zarah is beyond kind and compassionate and his expertise at knee surgery, phenomenal. All of the staff members in all three offices are also beyond measure. I heartily recommend this group for all orthopedic needs.

  I called to schedule a first time appointment and when I told the person what insurance I had she quickly said we don't take that insurance bye. I asked wait how much would it be out of pocket she said. I just told you we don't take your insurance. I asked if I can pay out of pocket and she did not answer at all and just put me on hold. Someone else then answered did not say hello just said we don't take your insurance and we can not charge you it is illegal and hung up the phone.<br>Honestly I'd be embarrassed to be a doctor at a practice with such nasty employees.

  Not recommended. After all x-ray and MRI, doesn't even bother go over any images. At least the xRay images. I point the area that I have pain, doctor K ascertains that it's an SI joint problem without going series of SI joint test. Such as crossing one leg to the other. I did have 6 month of PT, but I was recovered. This time is a new pain. Doctor K suggested injection to the pain area right away. And immediately show me the second option of doing an implant other patient has to attach SI joint. From what I feel, this is a very profitable clinic who doesn't spent time with explaining and testing things to patient but all it's images and procedures. I got a second and third orthopedist consultation, just to confirm, none of them said SI joint issue. And they have gone through several push test with me. I am shocked by how recklessness doc K's decision can be and without considering the pain a patient has to go through.

  I will prefer to take my star away from the rating<br>This people don't deserve any!! ... Also the office the most unprofessional doctor's office I have ever been to. All of the front desk women act so nasty. I explained my pain after my accident, they didn't care. the front desk staff raced their voices at me if I wasn't in pain I could let!! But I was in pain and needed to be seen. If you have the opportunity avoid going to this doctor office
