Dr Adelberg is very kind and explains clearly what he is going to do and why he is doing it. He is very good with educating regarding procedures and rationales for the choice of treatment.
I had to wait almost a month for today’s appointment. Got a very pleasant surprise when I found out this afternoon that I can have surgery in 47 days instead of 3 months plus.
I was pleased as usual with my care by Dr Adelberg. Also pleased that his medical assistant introduced herself by name.
Dr. Adelberg is a very good doctor. He explains everything to me and tell me everything he must have noticed and what to expect.
Great staff and doctor!
My Osteopath has been great over the years... very thorough, very personable, establishes confidence for me.
Every staff member was cheerful and friendly. They were very professional, efficient and helpful answering all my questions and making sure I understood everything.

Very pleasant staff. Dr Adelberg is a great Dr.
Very friendly and patient answered all my question very nice Dr.
All staff were extremely friendly. I felt my visit with the provider was a little rushed and one of my issues didn't get much attention or any plan of treatment.
Dr Adelberg is truly great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Employees very attentive to my questions and concerns
This was my 2nd visit to this office/provider and each time I was seen promptly and professionally. Also my needs/concerns were met.
Quick check in, almost no wait time.
You cannot improve on perfection. Dr. Adelberg is the best in this area.I would r ecommend him highly to anyone who needed an orthopedic doctor.
Was very happy with the service
Dr. Adelberg in South Coast Orthopedics has been fantastic for... well over 30 years and I've been a patient of Dr. Adelberg's and he is the best. Couldn't ask for a better Orthopedic or a friend. Thank you.
Great experience! Fast efficient, down to earth, and knowledgeable. Great care and put me at ease!
I've gone to Dr. Adelberg many years It's been over 10 years maybe 20 years. I don't know but he is just so mellow and he's just awesome. He explains everything. In my book highly recommended. He knows how to give a shot and he's the best.
He was a great listener and explained things clearly. He answered all my questions.
Everything was good. Nothing to worry about.
Everyone was great. I didn’t wait, was seen right away, questions answered, information provided, next steps discussed.
Excellent service from doctor and staff
I like the way they did my x-rays. They compared my left knee to my right knee, which was excellent. I could really see what was wrong with my right knee. I liked that. Thank you.
Everything was on time and I had no problems.
Hi after being away for a long time with this doctor I just appreciated that he was wonderful just like he was years ago. I really like him. I can't say I like him over and over again because I really do, he is the best. Thank you very much.
Dr. Adelberg is very down to earth and shows a humility rarely seen in doctors. I have vast experience with the medical profession and Dr. Adelberg stands out in my opinion. I also like that he’s not quick to prescribe meds or surgery. He strongly believes in less is more. A brief but heartfelt comment he made during my first visit was the catalyst that lead to my quitting morphine sulphate on my own. He explained that regular use of pain meds keeps one in pain. No doctor ever hinted at that before. I was motivated not only to get off pain pills but also to lose close to 50 lbs to date. I owe my self improvement to Dr. Adelberg, truly.
Dr. Adelberg is my favorite doctor. He has been taking care of me for years and years. He's gentle, kind, compassionate, and listens to my concerns. He always knows how to take away the pain. I just love this doctor
The entire experience was very pleasant and very efficient. From the front desk, to x-ray, [Name] was very nice, the intake by the MA, [Name] was very friendly and the attention by Dr Adelberg. I felt very well cared for. [Name]
Great distancing at site
I arrived at 1:00 pm had xrays done on my knees. Saw the dr. , he gave me 2 shots and sent me on my way.I was back in my car by 1:21pm. I probably would have gotten there quicker if it wasn’t for my knees.
I had a good experience. The dr came in shortly after intake. He was kind and helpful.
Always an awesome experience with ortho team today I met dr A he was awesome very caring kind listened to my concerns and explained some stuff to me super nice man and the nurse she was extremely sweet to I would highly recommend them to anyone
I could not schedule my annual follow up because you don't have next year's calendar which means I have to remember to call the office next year for an appointment. Last year you had the calendar to schedule one year in advance. There is no reason why you can't schedule one year ahead. This just adds to my stress to remember to call in six months to schedule. At my age, I try to keep things simple. Thank you.
I am a demanding patient and I have a lot of issues but they listen to no end and they’re there with ideas and care for my needs I highly recommend Dartmouth Southcoast orthopedics friendly kind attentive From soup to nuts as my Dad used to say
quick and courteous!
Dr. Adelberg was very good. The whole staff was excellent. Five star rating. Thank you.
They are very professional. The methods they used to prevent spread of Covid were excellent. The wait time was just a few minutes. Dr Adelburg always listens to my concerns, and explains everything very well.
In this time of Covid, got me in and out quickly. Also addressed my issue efficiently.
Everything was good thank you
Pleasant, respectful and explained things well.
The office staff is always extremely courteous and Dr. Adelberg is always extremely knowledgeable and explains everything thoroughly and makes me feel very comfortable.
Friendly staff
Truly professional in every wsy
Staff was courteous; facility was clean and there was clear attention to the current Covid concerns. Wait was a tad long but not bad. Doctor was direct, which I appreciate; I prefer a more adult-adult style but he doesn't know my level of education/interest/knowledge in the subject so that's OK The x-ray was performed quickly and efficiently - the the tech was awesome - and results very quickly available. Again, the doctor explained what I was seeing and was reassuring.
This physician was great as well as the X-ray tech.
I'M very pleased with all the staff in there from front desk to nurses and Doctor Adelberg,I would not change them for nothing in this world.Thank you all.
Nothing this office is awesome ??
The office staff and Dr.Adelberg are awesome! He is by far the best and most personable Dr. I have ever seen

Dr. Adelberg made me feel at ease. He informed me of my options. I would recommend him to my friends and family...
On time and very good pt. experience.
Great care and attention to what my I was experiencing Orthopedically.
It was a pleasant experience
The receptionist at this facility was average in customer service. Dr. Adelberg was exceptionally professional in his understanding of my condition, diagnosis of it, and recommended treatment for it. I left feeling like my health was in very good hands.
Listened and explained everything.
Everything was done in a very professional manner!
Thoughtful, educational and great listener. Dr. Adelberg was completely familiar with my file even thought he was filling in for Dr. Langworthy.
Dr listened to me and addressed my questions and symptoms in a concerning manner.
I guess it would have been good to have what the doctor suggested put in writing. My regular doctor usually sends me a report. I never think to right it down while in the office.
Dr. Adelberg & the xray tech was wonderful. I had to wait quite a long time just to check in. There were 2 receptionist but only one was doing checkin. Other than the checkin process everything was great.
I VE ALWAYS BEEN SATISFTIED WITH THIS OFFICE....NEVER MUCH WAITING...ALWAYS TREATED EXTREMELY WELL.
The staff is always very helpful, and efficient and Dr.Adelberg is always upbeat and informative
Honest in very realistic to my severe circumstances of a great calcaneous displace fracture*

Please with medical treatment.
I didn't wait long a all and the Dr was very personable it was a great visit
Dr. Adelberg is great - professional, understanding and just plain nice. He did my other knee in 2007 and I have had absolutely no problem with it. If I do eventually need a second knee replacement, he will be my number one choice for the surgeon.

Dr Adelberg made me feel completely relaxed !
I am a new client.From check in to check out, 2 wordsFirst class!!!Every person involved with my appointment was very kind,helpful and attentive to me.Thank you.
Dr. Adelberg is the most comforting doctor that I deal with. He listens and advises. His bedside manner is outstanding! I have been his patient for over 25 years.
Dr Adelberg was wonderful! Xrays were taken first so he had them when I went into his office. Within 5 minutes he explained what I have and my options. He is the most pleasant doctor I have ever had.
I was seen within a timely manner. Very friendly staff.
Dr Adelberg is a top notch specialist. He is approachable, thorough, takes his time, listens to his patients and is always my first choice when I have an orthopedic issue.He has always improved my medical problems.
Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings. Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.
Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.
Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.
How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office. The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
