I have had wonderful experiences with this care provider and with everyone I have dealt with! I am very grateful for the terrific care that I receive! Thank you very much!

I have been followed by Dr Blazar for almost 15 years and he has been an absolute pleasure and treasure for me. We have a wonderful relationship and we understand each other completely.

This care provider was very knowledgeable, showed concern, listened to everything I said, offered advice and was very enjoyable. I would recommend him to anyone!

He listens intently, and genuinely cares about you as a person.

Dr. Blazar and his resident team were fantastic. I had to see them quickly after a recent injury and I was able to get in within a few days and have surgery just a couple of days after that. Everyone answered all my questions and while I was nervous, they did everything possible to make me feel more confident. I highly recommend him.

This experience was the best provider experience I have had at an MGB facility. From the ease of parking thru to leaving - receiving a smile from the parking receptionist - it all was GREAT. I had no idea this facility was so good. My provider was superior and do wax the Dr - a resident?- working with him. They were so clear in communication, so patient with my questions. It all was awesome. I commend whomever is running this facility because everyone, even in the hallways smiled or asked if I needed any help/directions. I can't say enough about the expert care I received and the pleasant/peaceful facility.

Dr. Philip Blazar is an exceptional hand orthopedic surgeon! He has an excellent bedside manner -- courteous and respectful, and provided me with a clear diagnosis and management plan including follow-up plan if symptoms were not resolving by a certain timeframe.
