Patient Reviews
Aug 03, 2022
On Christmas Eve night, Dr. Cook did very complex emergency surgery on my compound-fractured calcaneus (heel bone). I was 80 years old, with advanced osteoporosis. He restructured my ankle and foot using a metal plate, numerous screws, and a bone graft. Ricardo Cook was always personable, unhurried, and kind. It’s been five years, and I can easily walk 2 or more miles. I love Dr. Cook.
