Dr. Gilbert did my Total Knee Replacement and did an excellent job! I am 3 months post-op and for the most part I have very little pain! I highly recommend him and his staff. I am very pleased with every aspect of the care I have received from Dr. Gilbert and ALL of his staff!

This is my second hip procedure, this was by far the easiest when it came to recovery and pain. I was walking without help almost a month before my prior procedure

Dr. Gilbert is the best! My hip replacement was so well done, it was hard to remember that it was major surgery! I was able to schedule the procedure within a week, was using a walker within the same day, and did not need a cane after day 10. The hospital staff was caring, kind and professional. Given the opportunity, I’d shout the merits of Dr Gilbert, his PA, Al, and his staff from the rooftops!

I recommend Dr. Gilbert to all people who need a hip replacement. I have had both hips replaced by Dr. Gilbert and I feel like a new person. I have had no pain like I did before. In fact I just had my check up for my left hip which was replaced 8/2020 and I feel great & doing great! I feel like a new person! Dr. Gilbert explains everything & has a very positive attitude that gives you confidence & sets you at ease. Thank you !

Dr Gilbert had replaced my left hip 4 years ago. It healed perfectly. He replaced my right knee this week on Monday and I am walking with no pain, 3 days later, on Thursday. I had been told by others that my knee repair would hurt more than my hip. I have very little pain. I have much less pain after 3 days than I had before the surgery. The staff members at Rex Hospital were great. Dr. Gilbert has extensive experience with these joints. I am quite surprised that I feel this great so soon. I went to my first PT today and the staff said I was progressing very quickly. I will say that I have been working out in my gym and also doing yoga at home for the past two years. I can’t overstate the importance of strengthening your core and all of your muscles. I believe that this is contributing to my recovery. Dr. Gilbert performed a wonderful repair on my knee. I highly recommend that you schedule an appointment with him and get your sore joints cared for by him and his team.

Televisit. I understand that a doctor's time is valuable, but a $50 co-pay for a one-minute call seems a bit much, especially when Humana had suspended co-pays on in-person visits.
That's my complaint for the day ... wouldn't even think about using anyone other than Dr. Gilbert! I'm 70 with two good knees after a lifetime of playing ball ... what else can I say!?

On 6/17/20,Dr. Gilbert performed a right hip replacement for me which has improved the quality of my life dramatically. Besides carrying out tasks of every day life, I now can walk/hike 4-5 miles daily... with zero pain.
If you are in need of this type of surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Gilbert. He can be described as brilliant, confident and compassionate.
Not only is Dr. Gilbert a gifted surgeon, he is a great human being.

Dr. Gilbert performed two complete hip replacements on me. I couldn't be happier with the results. After 4 months, I'm walking between 5 to 7 miles each day! He's a great Doctor.

I have now experienced two (left & right) hip replacements with Dr. Gilbert. Both surgeries went well as did the Physical Therapy. Dr. Gilbert's Emergo Orthro team as well as the staff at Triangle Orthopedic Surgery Center are second to none.

Dr. Gilbert performed right
hip replacement and then I returned for left. I can walk again upright and without pain. He is an excellent surgeon. He has a no nonsense personality and is very confident, which I appreciate. My husband is now seeing Dr. Gilbert for his knee.

This was my 3 month post total knee replacement visit. It was quick, but he was just checking out flexion and extension and highly impressed with progress I made.. it was his skill, my PT work... awesome result. He's not a chatty guy, but, I need skill and experience in a surgery like this.

I am a nurse and had to put off a knee replacement for several years because of caring for an elderly parent. I was referred to Dr. Gilbert by another physician. He took the time to help me process how I could care for myself and find the care my parent would need through a referral to his on staff psychologist. The surgery and physical therapy after have far exceeded my expectations! After so many years of living with pain that severely limited my life I am pain free thanks to the exceptional care I’ve received. He is an excellent, caring MD and I highly recommend him.

I would strongly recommend Dr Gilbert and his team. He replaced my knee in January and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Would also recommend the EmergeOrtho professionals for PT

Dr. Gilbert is amazing! Six weeks after surgery, I’m getting stronger! I’m able to do activities I have not been able to do in a long time. His staff is friendly, efficient and attentive! Great team to go along with a great doctor.
