Patient Reviews
Mar 24, 2024
I didn't see Dr. Mays, but I did see his PA Joe. He was great at explaining what was probably going on with my shoulder. We discussed a plan and ended with an injection. The staff was all very friendly and professional. The visit moved quickly (it was finished before I completed my paperwork!) and I was out within an hour. Highly recommend Bossier Sports and Orthopedic Clinic!
