Dr. Marrr was extremely professional, frank And made me feel more at ease about my upcoming surgery. I greatly appreciate Dr. Marr taking the Tilme to address my concerns.
Very professional, and detailed.
Had X-rays on my ankle and Dr. Marr gave me an honest and concise assessment of the avenues to pursue.
Excellent provider
Dr. Marr took the time to speak to me as a person with various interests, as well as a patient. This, I believe, helped him to understand my concerns for the timing of the surgery, and the length of my recovery. The surgery went well, my foot looks good - scars are hard to see. My foot is still mending but the outlook good. Travel is important to me, and it looks like I will still be able to enjoy it fully in the future.
Dr Marr was very attentive and he listened to my concerns! I thought he was upfront honest with his opinion regarding my surgery.
He was informative and punctual and had a plan of action for my foot issue.
Dr Marr is a wonderful doctor. Very knowledgeable and trustworthy.
