World renowned Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Likover and staff, professional,best bed manners ever and accommodating , helped me thru the process from start and continuing as I write this review.

Went in for second opinion. I felt he did not look at any of my paperwork and did not look at my MRI which clearly says and shows issues. Said everything was fine - and blew me off. Told me I needed to stop running for the rest of my life.

I couldn’t even make an appointment. Not a good sign when the receptionist hangs up on you the first time, then says they will call you back, but that doesn’t happen. I found another doctor and made an appointment before I got a call back!

I was suffering of severe hip pain almost for 9 months . It was the worst experience in my life I did not have hope anymore, just jumping from one doctor to another one who were ordering unnecessary test just to empty my pockets ( lol ).
I did not know what to do any more until I found Dr Larry.L Likover ,and to be honest after I saw the 3 stars rating on line I was not sure if I did the right thing to get the surgery with him ,but something inside of me , a voice on my head kept telling me he is the right doctor to perform the surgery , and that inner voice was RIGHT, I feel brand new after the surgery, it went smoothly and I am glad that Dr Larry was like I say my angel on the earth. And what to say about the team that assisted me on before , during and after surgery, omg the best of the best nurses and doctors ,if I had 4 hip , I think I will go 4 times with them . I want to give a big thanks to Dr Larry , and these nurses ( angels on the earth)

I am a new patient of Doctor Likeover. He cares about his patients he listens to what you need I would most definitely recommend him to anyone I know?

Dr. Likover did a full knee replacement for my boyfriend almost a month ago and he has already regained the ability to climb a ladder. I read some of the other reviews and was really surprised. I have been at every appointment and I did not find him to be rude, nor did he withhold pain medication. He was very direct and more importantly correct about what to expect and how to handle every step. I knew that people fly in from all over the world to have their surgeries done by him and now I understand why. I would absolutely recommend him.

Dr. Likover is a no-nonsense professional. He replaced both of my knees in 2015, about six months apart. They are perfectly aligned and work beautifully. We are currently monitoring my hip for a possible replacement and he is absolutely the best choice to perform the replacement if/when it becomes necessary. Dr. Likover will give you the facts you need to make good choices. He follows up after surgery with a thoroughness you cannot always expect. He replaced my husband's hip joints years ago and they also never gave him any more problems. Do your homework and read reviews; this doctor is simply the best and I highly recommend trusting him with your family.

In 2016 I was experiencing alot of pain in my hip. I got a diagnosis and was quickly referred to Dr. Likover for hip replacement. I was very nervous because during my research seemed like many people had more issues after surgery than before and also had to endure another surgery. To date I have had no issues in the hip that was replaced. Dr. Likover during the first consult took his time to fully explain what the diagnosis meant and when discussing surgery used a plastic model to make sure I understood the surgery process. From surgery to recovery he instructed me on what to do and not to do and I listened and followed instructions and I healed pretty well in my opinion. My diagnosis was beginning to affect my right hip but I had a little time to wait another surgery out and not because pain is slowly developing I have followed up with Dr. Likover and in process of possibly scheduling to get the right hip replaced very soon. I trusted him once and results were good and just tend to keep drs and surgeons who I had good results with. I would highly recommend him.

My only slight complaint is one of the front office staff each time I have been there, she is somewhat rude in how she interacts with patients. I have experienced it firsthand and also have watched many times as patients tried to keep composure when she had been rude with them. I can only hope these reviews get seen and perhaps some office professional development occurs on dealing with patients politely.
