Very highly satisfied with Dr. Nigro. He has been very professional and highly skilled and provided me with total resolution of my shoulder problems with successful replacement. My knee replacement surgery was a complete success, the process of the surgery and therapy was exactly as the doctor said it would be.

I had a very good therapist and my healing process was very fast and painless. Wonderful doctor and staff. Could not ask for better! My knee replacement healed so quickly that the therapist wanted to know who my doctor was. God bless all of you! Dr. Nigro utilizes the latest techniques in complex joint reconstruction and has expertise in arthroscopic treatment of sports injuries of the shoulder, elbow and knee.

I was very skeptical of the procedure at first, but Dr. Phillip Nigro provided wonderful advice and shared his knowledge about total hip replacement, which helped me make a decision to go forth with the procedure. Norma is the one of the first people you will see on a visit to our office.

Very highly satisfied with Dr. Nigro. He has been very professional and highly skilled and provided me with total resolution of my shoulder problems with successful replacement. Bring a copy of the visit notes if you have already seen a doctor or another orthopedic surgeon.

You might have seen another provider for this problem, such as an emergency room physician, doctor at an urgent care facility, your primary care provider, or another orthopedic surgeon.If you have, it can be a good idea to get a copy of the medical records to give the orthopedic surgeon the best chance to understand all of the studies and treatments you have had up to this point.
If you have pain between doses, you may take Motrin (ibuprofen) 400 - 600 mg every six hours as need. Constipation - several effective stool softeners are available over the counter at your local drug store: Sennakot, Colace, milk of magnesia and eating prunes are very helpful to relieve constipation.

This was the first doctor in 40+ years of my life where he stated he didn't know what to do and blocked my attempts to get an MRI. His staff was kind, but his bedside manner was horrible..

Dr Nigro and the entire staff at Ingalls Hospital were fabulous. I had hip replacement surgery on Tuesday morning. I was up walking with a walker Tuesday afternoon. I had absolutely no pain from the moment I came out of anesthesia. 3 weeks later I am doing things I haven’t done in a year because of the pain and lack of stability in my hip. My new hip is rock solid. I am anticipating surgery on my other hip so I can return to my normal life.

Dr. Nigro was recommend to me for knee pain. He tried several less invasive procedures until I ended up with a replacement. It’s been 3 months since my surgery and I’m doing very well. He’s a excellent doctor and I would recommend him for orthopedic care.

Dr. Nigro is thorough both pre and postoperatively. He advised me what to expect preoperatively and the results postoperatively. He was compassionate and caring. His surgical skills are fantastic: I had great results, minimal postoperative pain and did NOT develop an infection
I will recommend him to everyone.
Thank you Dr. Nigro for a great surgical experience and wonderful results.

I had an opportunity to have been treated by Dr. Nigro for several of my ailments. My experiences have been nothing short of outstanding. Dr Nigro is very patient and attentive. He explains medical terms in an everyday language so that you can understand what is going on and what your options are. I also attended a couple of his seminars. I learned a lot. He has given me all the time that I needed to answer any questions or concerns that I had prior to the course of treatment. Solutions that Dr. Nigro provided have given me great relief of pain. Dr. Nigro is great at what he does. I highly recommend
