Meet Dr. Chaus (Orthopaedic Trauma & Fracture Specialist)

“Top-notch – triple-A – 5 out of 5 stars – I felt like I was worth a million bucks with the treatment I received from Dr. Chaus and the entire staff.”

“This is the second time I have had need for Dr. Chaus to treat me. This last time it was for a significantly broken ankle that required surgery. He has been wonderful. He is caring, professional, empathetic, knowledgeable, and very good at what he does. He listens to my concerns, and takes everything into consideration as he responds and continues treatment. There’s a reason I came back to him this second time, and I will continue to come back to Dr. Chaus in the future.”

Dr. Chaus is an Excellent Dr. He has done a previous surgery on me 2 years ago. I’m now scheduled for another surgery on my ankle May 1, 2024 after a fall and breaking my ankle again. I have complete trust and know that I’m in the best of care with Dr. Chaus”

-Joan M.

The whole experience from check-in through X-ray and time with Dr. Chaus was top notch.”
