Patient Reviews
Jan 29, 2024
Everyone is friendly! I have never been in the waiting room past my appointment time. I was the driver for my Dad several years ago and I loved how he didn't feel rushed. Dr Higgins answered any questions we had. A few years later I was having problems with my hip. I knew exactly where I wanted to go. I ended up needing a hip replacement. 3+years after my Dad's surgery and I experienced the same great care.
