Patient Reviews
May 03, 2024
I had foot surgery in Jacksonville, FL in 2016, that failed. Dr. Prather diagnosed and came up with a plan and that was handled two weeks ago. This was a fairly invasive but, even as I recover now, I have less pain than before the surgery. This entire team is amazing! In 2019, Dr. Levit repaired my hand from a crush injury at work. The ladies in the hand therapy department worked with me and the results were better than I could have imagined. As a hobby, I have done very detailed pen-ink art. My thanks to them is a framed original on their wall. It is because of the work with your team then, that I insisted on staying with Chatham Orthopaedic.Back to Dr. Prather, I cannot think of words worthy of my thanks for him, as well as the Surgery team there. 'Amazing' just falls short. He instantly had me at ease, and I thank God for his gifted hands. I am nothing but confident I will be walking and being able to work again soon. Thank you all, from my heart.
