Patient Reviews
Aug 28, 2019
Dr. Richardson did an arthrolysis of adhesions and a manipulation under anesthesia on my left knee after an initial surgery post knee dislocation (fx of tibial plateau and multiple ligaments ruptured/sprained). I only had a range of motion of 40 degrees 2-1/2 months after the initial trauma surgery and I now have 150 degrees!!! I literally cried after bending it in recovery. He allowed me to use the CPM machine longer than originally ordered and he thoroughly explained (with pictures) how they cleaned all the scarring out of my knee. I am considering having my ACL repaired, and I will definitely be using Dr. Richardson for this surgery as well. SUPER GRATEFUL WITH THE RESULTS!
