We have been seeing Dr Handwerger for years with our special needs daughter & other children. He is a fantastic Dr, great bedside manners, very caring & compassionate!
Best doctor out there for ortho!
Absolutely loved him. He’s wonderful with children.
Amazing first visit. Dr. Handler put us right at ease immediately and answered all my husband’s questions. The whole office staff was so friendly and the cast maker was a hoot!
He was Marie kept it light, made sure my son was comfortable and that we were comfortable with the treatment plan options.
Great bedside manner. Thorough in exams and explanations. Down to earth and easy to talk to.
Informative, incredibly knowledgeable, practical, incredibly polite!
He is awesome with the kids!!
Dr Handwerger is great with kiddos and has a very good sense of humor. Hopefully we won’t need him again, but if we do, he will be our choice.
Amazing surgeon. He also has an amazing bedside manor.
