Patient Reviews
Feb 13, 2024
If you’re looking for an excellent orthopedic surgeon with years of experience and great results, please select Dr. Thomas Carter with Banner Health in Scottsdale, Arizona. Dr. Carter has put together a wonderful team. Top athletes and ordinary people come here for sports medicine and related care. It’s important that all patients get treated the same. My condition was a torn ACL from playing high school football. This was recently confirmed with an MRI. After 40 years of having a painful knee, I realized it was getting worse. I did some research and received some opinions from a few surgeons. I decided to go with Dr. Carter because of his many years of experience and his reputation as a knee surgeon. In summary, Dr. Carter has years of experience and a great team to assist him, which is very important if you think about it. His patients receive great results, and he stays on the cutting edge of this highly technical field. He was a pleasure to work with. JK
