Patient Reviews
Dec 28, 2018
I’m 39 now. He treated me at Rhode Island Hospital for DDH that was misdiagnosed in the early 80’s and I received many unnecessary surgeries, before I became his patient. Dr. Handlesman thank you for giving me the ability to walk and run. Today I work in Sports Medicine and Coach Softball. Just thank you so much for caring about me. I’ve always wondered where you were. I truly cannot thank you enough for the quality of life you gave me as a child. I’ve been in excellent care since, I’m grateful.
