Reviews from Our Patients

I want to thank Dr Gowreeson for taking good care of my sprained ankle. He approached my injury by giving suggestions with clear explanations for the pros and cons of each option. He operated on my right ankle that suffered ligaments tear and it was a success. My recovery has been great so far, and I have no issues resuming my physical activities.

I’m so thankful to Doctor Gowreeson, he even reviewed with me my condition after 10 months of my surgical, you are good doctor, may God bless you in everything you do

I was recommended to Dr. Gowreeson Thevendran to help with pain in my lower back and legs. Through consultations with him, I went through a medical procedure to ease the pain in my body. The procedure went smoothly and my recovery is happening now. Through it all, Dr. Gowreeson and the Island Orthopeadics staff were very reassuring and exuded professionalism and confidence. They made me feel comfortable throughout the whole experience. I wouldn’t want to go through it again but having Dr. Gowreeson there helped a lot. I highly recommend him if you have back issues and want help from someone who’s excellent with patients.
