Patient Reviews
Jun 22, 2018
Dr Telfer quickly and accurately diagnosed my knee problem and explained it thoroughly and expertly. I was very impressed. I had scheduled another ortho doctor appt for the next day, for a second opinion, and that doctor concluded close to the same thing as Dr Telfer but not as quickly and thoroughly. (Dr Telfer had ordered some special standing x-rays that helped show the problem and he took the time to explain it all very well). Super experienced and good doctor.
