Patient Reviews
Mar 08, 2023
Dr. Bruce has a very compassionate way about him and a wealth of knowledge he brings to the OR. He gave my a very thorough explanation of my MRI (knee) and what he would do to correct the injury and told me what to expect. His follow up was equally impressive and I am very pleased with my recovery. I would see him again without question. Recommend him with highest marks.
