Patient Reviews
Apr 13, 2025
Dr. Childs was very professional. He has exceptional knowledge of my injury. He took his time explaining my xray as well as my injury from the car accident. I have been following his plan for me to the T, because I am not a fan of surgery. I will say that if surgery is needed I totally trust him to put me back together again. I would and will recommend him to anyone and everyone that is looking for an exceptional doctor.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
