I've had quite a few surgery's, and not all from Massachusetts. However this was by far the most pleasant experience. Dr. Luber and his team are absolutely phenomenal to say the very least. I am so beyond thankful. From the very start they are so kind to deal with, making you comfortable in every way. Thank you!

Saw Mike for cortisone shots in both knees yesterday. Hardly felt them at all! He was also very helpful in giving me specifics on how much weight I need to lose before considering knee replacements. Overall an excellent appointment! Would definitely recommend him.

Great. Every part of process from when I stepped into building until I left went smoothly. I'm impressed with their informational updated website. I've been a patient there for many years. I give 5 s to Peter Michaud P.A. He is the only one I will allow to give me injections. He listens and cares. We discussed what the strategy would be to best address first, second, etc. steps towards managing my pain and achieving the necessary goals for my total hip replacement & knee(s).

I left with the hope that gave me the needed physical & emotional strength to keep going. I was so close to giving up with the severe pain resulting from the degenerative bone disease I have in so many of my joints. Thank you, Peter.

The practice was absolutely professional and supportive in my care. They were very quick to assist me in the urgent care office and help to get things moving along for my treatment. Working with Tim Rice he helped me to fully understand what could be happening with my injury and ensured that follow up occurred in a timely manner. Very reassuring and overall a positive experience.
