Patient Reviews
Mar 15, 2024
Dr. Zehms is what you would like to find in any doctor that you’ve ever had. A person who cares about you, who knows his business, spends time with diagnosis, explaining your options and using surgery as a last resort. So very refreshing when dealing with a surgeon. Dr. Zehms takes a personal interest in you. He reviews all of your information before you ever walk into his office. He wants to know who you are as much as he wants to know how best he can help you to have a better life. I just can’t say enough good things about him. He’s done hip surgery on me. He’s treated a hip flexor. He did a very difficult rotator cuff surgery on my wife. For him, the post-op physical therapy he prescribes is critical to the quality of your recovery. And he stays with you through that whole process. you’ll never find better more competent doctor. Dr. Zehms, though young, is old school. He’s just simply, the best. I would highly recommend him in any of the areas of his expertise or specialties.
