Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2019
Dr. Pula was very kind and a warm person to me and my husband. On my first visit, he introduced himself to us and told us about my x-ray results. He gave me options to my care, first starting with injections to my knee, and or a brace. The option after non-operative options would be a total knee replacement. He gave my knee an I injection for pain, and did a very good job. As a nurse, I know what to look for in a doctor, and you would not be disappointed having him care for you or your family.
