It was an amazingly efficient appointment! In and out in 50 min, X-rays, medical history and all. Dr. Tarantino was great, honest, to the point and took time to answer all my questions. Would highly recommend him and Towson Orthopaedic Assoc.

The office runs very smoothly! Very little wait time and friendly staff! Dr. Tarantino is very nice and will answer any and all questions you may have. I highly recommend!

I was seen as soon as I arrived by receptionist and given forms to fill out. After completing the forms I was seen by a welcoming Dr.Tarantino. After reviewing my chart he reminded me that I had a similar complaint four years ago. Seems like I have an inflamed bursa below the hip, on my thigh. I was so relieved that my hip was healthy. Dr. Tarantino gave me a cortisone shot and advised me to take Aleve if I was still having pain and that he would prescribe something stronger in a few weeks of I was still having pain

Dr. Tarantino was very thorough in his examination of my hip. He answered all my questions and explained what was happening with the arthritis in my hip. Since physical therapy is helping, there’s no need for surgery at this time. I’m glad I made the appointment to see Dr. Tarantino, and I highly recommend him for consultation.

Dr Tarantino has always gone out of his way to provide me with friendly, courteous and professional orthopedic services. Highly recommend!

I have been treated for several years by Dr. T and Ben who just performed my second total knee replacement. They are highly professional, responsive to patient needs, and honest in answering questions about surgery and recovery. They do not rush patients to surgery. Dr. T has developed excellent online materials to help prepare patients for surgery and provides very explicit written information about what is involved. In addition, the staff I have dealt with at Towson Ortho have been friendly and helpful. After my recent surgery at Ruxton Surgery Center, my recovery nurse hovered over me like a mother hen and was very caring and responsive to me needs. I have spent a lot of time online reading research about post-operative pain management from knee surgery, and I have found Dr. T and Ben quite willing to work with me in developing excellent pain-management protocols that fit my particular needs. My wife also has knee problems similar to mine and may face total knee replacement surgery. After being seen by another ortho due to an emergency knee swelling, she has concluded that she wants Dr. T to perform her surgery.

Dr Tarantino is very thorough. Explains everything so that you understand the diagnosis and treatment options.

Excellent Doctor… explained the problem, what could cause the conditions and plan going forward pending lab results.
