- Dr. Avino performed a full hip replacement operation on me…. From my experience (and the experience of several other of his patients that I spoke with), he is the BEST … The whole staff was very thorough, very professional, very courteous…. Everyone I dealt with was focused on patient satisfaction - listening carefully to concerns, fully explaining the process and answering all questions… No issues before during or after the operation… I had no pain at all and within 2 weeks after the operation I was back to taking walks with no trouble… Friends and family (including PT professionals) were amazed at the speedy recovery ….,those who know Dr. Avino were not surprised….. I highly recommend Dr. Avino…
- Dr. Avino did an amazing job with my recent total knee replacement. He and his team provided me with options I could understand, helped me make the right decision, communicated very well with me and provided me with excellent care and a super successful surgery. Thanks to the entire team including Dr Avino, Heather, Jade, the office staff and those that helped at Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center.
- Dr. Avino and Heather are a dynamic duo!!! I was recently Diagnosed with AVN at the age of 33 and was constantly on my feet working 12 hr shifts as a nurse. I felt like my world was crushed with this new diagnosis. I endured pain constantly and felt scared of the unknown. Dr. Avino informed me that a hip replacement would be the best solution to this dilemma. After living with pain for a year I realized he was right because the pain was only getting worse. They scheduled me for a Right Total Hip Replacement and I am finally pain free!!! They kept me informed before the procedure, during, and checked on me afterwards!!! (Tears). I am forever grateful for them both!!! Ps Jade is the best secretary Ever!!!!!!
- My husband had robotic knee replacement in January and from start to finish, our experience with Dr. Avino and his staff has been a 10! Dr. Avino's expertise, along with beginning his physical therapy at home with Viktor, has allowed a fast recovery back to our active lifestyle. Dr. Avino and staff provided all the avenues to a quick recovery and if you follow those avenues, you'll benefit greatly in your recovery.
- I highly recommend Dr. Robert Avino, a truly gifted surgeon and doctor who cares about his patients. He carefully explained everything regarding my Robotic Hip Replacement and looked me straight in the eye when doing so. There was no vagueness and no surprises as a result of his compassionate and meaningful approach to preparing patients for this life changing surgery. I wish I had scheduled my procedure sooner. It’s like getting back 10-15 years of your life, being mobile again with minimal restrictions, and pain free. If you ready your questions in advance of your appointment, pay attention at your office visits, and listen closely to Dr. Avino, you too can have the same experience I had. I am appreciative and grateful. My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Avino, Heather, his remarkable assistant, and for the support of my family and caring friends.
- Would highly recommend Dr. Avino. My husband limped and had difficulty walking without pain. His hip was bone on bone with a leg discrepancy. He had the MAKO Smart Robotics total hip replacement done by Dr. Avino. Best thing he ever did! No pain and back to enjoying life. His leg discrepancy was corrected and no more limping or pain. Dr. Avino's office staff is the best. Heather, his Medical Assistant, made the process so easy. She supplied written instructions for everything and was easily accessible by email. There was never a delay in response time. Drugs needed post surgery were called into the pharmacy before surgery. In home nurse and therapy appointments were arranged by Heather. The whole process was flawless. You will not be disappointed with the care and outcome you receive from Dr. Avino.
- Dr. Avino replaced my right hip using the mako robot a year ago and I couldn't be happier with the results, I feel I got my life back. I'm back to playing racquetball and pickle ball without any pain. I highly recommend Dr Avino and his group.
