I had not expected to come home with a cast but he helped me before and I trusted him then and today my foot feels better when i walk and my husband said I am walking a lot better Thanks Helen
I was worried about my injury and saw him for 3 minutes. No bedside manner.
A long wait but was impressed with his thoroughness.I felt he wanted the best results possible when I have foot surgery,and explained things well.
Dr Tuckman is one of the best surgeons ever. He has help me in the past and now this year as well. Wouldn’t want to go anywhere else but him. He understands your needs and always finds a solution to help/fix it. Best doctor ever!!
Very poor bedside manner...spent no time and didn't listen to me or my concerns or about my pain
Nice guy. Explained everything.
Dr Tuckman was very knowledgeable and thorough. He took time to explain what he found and what the different options were. His staff were all very welcoming and professional. Would not hesitate to recommend this practice!
he is a very nice doctor explains the situation so you can understand how and what needs to be done.
He’s performing surgery on my foot today!!
