Patient Reviews
Jan 19, 2021
He is absolutely the best orthopedic doctor I have ever seen! I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone in need of ortho care. We have been seeing him for 15+ years and followed him from one practice to another. Not having a need for his services over the couple of years, we have lost contact with him and really need him for a problem.
