Patient Reviews
Feb 07, 2023
I wouldn’t have the ability to walk without Dr. Sisson. I had two severely injured legs and multiple doctors told me I wouldn’t walk again. My first appointment he promised me I’d walk again w/o assistance and within six months I was walking as if I’d never been injured. He also has wonderful bedside manner. Don’t rely on bad reviews. See for yourself. I highly doubt you’ll regret it.
