Dr. Bodenstab is always very professional as his staff! He provides answers and solutions to issues and problems presented during each visit! There’s always a pleasure visiting the office for treatment and evaluations.
A wonderful appointment! Dr. Bodenstab and I discussed various treatments and surgery in the future. Very pleasant to speak with as he used a model of a knee to show me about the problem.
