Feb 13, 2023
Listened and gave time for questions

Jan 27, 2023
Dr. Maloney I have zero complaints.
Dec 09, 2022
Professional and courteous.
Nov 28, 2022
Dr. Maloney is very nice and friendly. My only suggestion would be for him to slow down a bit when he is reviewing xray or test results. He uses lots of big medical terminology, which is hard to understand, and even when asked for clarification, he is still a bit hard to understand. Slow down, translate into language people can understand, and wait for patient to process, respond and ask necessary questions.
Nov 28, 2022
Dr Maloney is excellent
Nov 07, 2022
Dr Maloney listened attentively as I asked many questions regarding my knees. He showed me the x rays & explained what they showed. I shared my concerns regarding some treatments & we came to an agreement on an initial treatment to try first, He is a very honest & straightforward Fr. I highly respect him.

Have recommend Dr. Maloney to several other people with great results

Mike Maloney is outstanding
May 08, 2022
Didn't try to force surgery or cortisone injections but did give reasons/options to do or not do them.
Apr 30, 2022
This was an office visit for a 2nd opinion. Dr. Maloney gave me his opinion about the need for ACL reconstruction, the importance of PT before surgery for best outcome, and mentioned the type of graft he would use. I would have liked more information about why he chose that particular approach and the success rate he has had with it. I did receive good information about ACL reconstruction in the mail from URMC this week, which I found very informative.
Mar 31, 2022
This was my first time meeting Dr Maloney, but he has my total trust. He comes with highest accolades and regards. Very professional and caring specialist that didn't make you feel rushed and took time to listen and evaluate symptoms and your care plan.Also took time to explain X-ray and MRI results.The office is well run , very efficient and competent care.
Mar 31, 2022
Procedure was pretty straightforward but I was well informed during the process.
Mar 24, 2022
Mr. Maloney is fantastic. Very kind and explained things very well.
Mar 11, 2022
Dr. Michael Maloney is the best doctor I have ever had. He really cares about the people he treats. I wish he was my primary doctor instead of my shoulder doctor. If I could have one doctor for all my medical needs, it would 100% be him.
Mar 06, 2022
I have already recommended him to my family
Feb 15, 2022
Dr. Maloney's professional demeanor was of superior quality. He was prepared for our visit, inviting me to view the results of my MRI, background information particular to my situation and provided an excellent plan to deal with my situation. He was most gracious, informative and kind!
