Very nice and funny
He is absolutely amazing! Doc is very truthful and firm.
So caring, comforting and funny.
The best peds orthopedic ever. Explains everything in plain language so that it’s very simple understandable. He doesn’t mind any questions.
Great visit. Dr. Handwerger took the time to make sure we felt taken care of and understood while making us aware of the options available.
We really enjoyed our visit with Dr. Handwerger. It was our first visit with him and he made us feel right at home. My 12 year old had nothing but good things to say after his visit.
Amazing! Great medical calls, clear communication, relatable and down to earth, and funny (which my daughter loved). Wouldn’t choose to see anybody different!
Satisfied, GREAT DOCTOR AND ON POINT WITH PATIENTS AND PARENTS.FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL. THE WHOLE STAFF.
My daughter had a spinal fusion because of her scoliosis. Dr. Handwerger is the best out there. His bedside manner is top notch and there is no other orthopedic doctor I would allow tontreat my daughter.
Always thorough!
