Very good at explaining what was wrong and what the next steps are.
He is Compassionate. and he cares about his Patience.and also his staff are caring
Wonderful surgeon with high success rate. Very friendly,kind and caring physician.
I would recommend him to anyone having problems with their foot & ankle. He's been a Godsend.
Was very rushed: no clear explanations, no other options discussed, no consideration of other unrelated obligations. Felt like I was just pushed into a surprising/unexpected treatment without a minute to process or time to ask questions.
Was very helpful and answered my questions. Good professional care from an experienced Doctor.
Answered all of my questions thoroughly and provided the best option available at this point
Dr. Tuckman is the best! He corrected a badly injured ankle of mine with a new ankle joint. He's the best in the business!
Dr. Tuckman was very professional and knowledgable about my concerns. He offered some treatment and I will see him in 6 weeks.
Dr T is a rock star!! I haven't been free of pain in 5 years!! Thank you!
