- “I came for my first appointment with Dr. Colizza almost two weeks ago for knee pain and I immediately felt a connection with him as a doctor. He was professional, educated, polite, respectful, and caring to my problem and my needs. He made me feel at ease when he explained the process to me thoroughly and was very careful explaining to make sure I understood everything that needed to be done for a x-ray and MRI. I'm happy with him as my doctor and I'm with him to stay!! Dr. Colizza is the best!”– Sandra R.

- “I injured my shoulder when I fell down stairs at work. It became a workman's comp case and I was a little concerned about an insurance company's dictating my fate. I was delighted, however, to be assigned to Dr. Colizza for the orthopedic work that was required on my rotator cuff. Ten years ago I found Dr. Colizza in Sparta to repair a knee injury. I thought he was excellent in all respects. After operating on my shoulder three weeks ago, I am pleased to report that Dr. Colizza continues to display the highest level of competence and no nonsense while treating my injury. He is monitoring my rehabilitation and I know I am in good hands. Thank you Dr. Colizza.”– John K.
- “Waiting time was very short. Staff was very courteous and efficient. Facilities are excellent. -- James C.”– James
- “I consulted Dr. Colizza for a diagnosis with regard to pain in my right hip. After having X-rays taken, he reviewed them with me and presented me with treatment options. I opted for hip replacement surgery. Dr. Colizza anticipated and answered all my questions about the procedure, where it would be performed, what type of anesthesia would be used, how long I would be in the hospital, the type of after-care he recommended, etc. He was so thorough that I felt I would be in good hands. I had previously looked up his credentials, and found that he is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with 20 years of experience. He then referred me to one of his staff members who told me she would send me a packet of information detailing the clearances I would need prior to the surgery. She scheduled the surgery date and sent me the information I needed. She was very friendly and efficient, and in a subsequent phone conversation answered some additional questions, which had occurred to me. -- Diana C.”– Diana
- “My experience at Tri-County was excellent. I was taken in for my appointment with Dr. Colizza on time. I found the center inviting, clean, and very professional. Dr. Colizza made my visit comfortable and very informative. I was told I needed a knee replacement on one knee and my torn meniscus repaired on the other. After some discussion, I decided to have my meniscus repaired and put the knee replacement on hold for now. To ease some of the arthritic knee pain, I requested a gel shot at the time of the operation. I am glad I did that, it helped in my recovering with the operated knee. I was able to lean on the injected knee without pain. I decided for my operation I didn't want a hospital environment and requested I go to the Surgery Center in Denville. I was very pleased with this facility and received the up-most professional care there. I am home now recovering and doing very well. I want to thank Dr. Colizza and his staff for a great job. He is a remarkable surgeon and I can't say enough about him or Tri-County Orthopedics. There is no need to be in pain, call now for your appointment.”– Eleanor B.
- “After falling on my elbow in a parking area, I completely shattered it. I was driven by ambulance to Overlook Hospital in Summit, New Jersey. I had never experienced such excruciating pain before. I was x-rayed and the technician's remark after seeing the result was, No wonder you're in so much pain. My wife had driven to Overlook and I asked her to call the orthopedic surgeon who earlier saved my mother-in-law's leg from a pool accident. She called Dr. Colizza and he instructed Shelly to send me up in an ambulance to reserve an OR for immediate surgery. The nurse injected me with morphine so I could handle the pain. Dr. Colizza was just ready to leave the hospital that Friday to prepare for his vacation to Europe the next day. Dr. Colizza made all the arrangements for me to come in for an emergency surgery and it went off without a hitch. He implanted a 7 stainless steel plate and nine screws in my arm. The surgery was a complete success and after three months of prescribed physical therapy, I had more than 90% range of motion. I will never forget Dr. Colizza putting his patient first while delaying his personal plans. He was and is a lifesaver.”– Stanley J.
- “My experience with Tri-County Orthopedics has always been a great experience. I have always found everyone to be professional, very helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. They are always applying the most current medical information needed to treat our family. My daughter is an active soccer player, and our interaction with Drs. McBride and Ginsberg has been exceptional. Both were able to provide a completely accurate diagnoses and prescribed the right treatments for the injuries. These doctors genuinely possess a great deal of compassion, and truly do understand the complexity of sports related injuries. I personally think their strategic alliance with SportsCare is a critical one for patients and one that I have utilized for our family. It makes it a lot easier to visit your doctor on one floor and have a therapy session on another floor in the same building, having these all in one location without additional driving. Dr. Colizza performed my knee surgery almost one year ago. He's extremely professional, knowledgeable, and all of his recommendations were accurate and beneficial. My knee surgery was a completely professional and pleasant experience. Surgery can always create a little apprehension. From admitting, to pre-op, surgery and post-op, it was truly the best surgical experience I have ever had. The staff was very professional, extremely pleasant, and made me feel very relaxed. It was a very peaceful environment, and I quickly realized that I was in the hands of some of the best professionals in our area. The private surgical experience for me is preferred for any future surgeries. For me, the doctor/patient relationship is an important component to the success of any procedure and full recuperation. I have to trust and respect the doctor(s) standing in front of me. I can unequivocally state that every doctor that I have interacted with at Tri-County Orthopedics has our complete trust, confidence, and respect. I have never doubted a diagnosis or treatment, and more importantly, I have never had a reason to do so.”– Catherine M.
- “I am a patient of Dr. Colizza for over 2 months now. This is a very good person, one of the best doctors I have seen in whole my life, and a very great specialist. I really liked the approach of this specialist, the way he speaks with patients, takes his time to explain everything, and the way in which he treats his patients. I recently had a rotator cuff repair done, and I am very happy with Dr. Colizza and his staff. He is that kind of doctor, which I entrust my life. He is a very good specialist, very friendly, and has a good sense of humor. I really recommend him. Again, huge thanks for your help Dr. Wayne Colizza, and the help of your staff. I am a very grateful patient with a family.”– Artur K.
