Great bedside manor
Just getting to know him but was very efficient and thorough. For me I like a bit more warmth and friendliness but I was satisfied with the visit and if needed I would see him again
Very passionate about his work. Very considerate of his patients feelings. Very knowledgeable about his profession.
Dr Adams explained everything to me and showed me the options available to me. I think he is a good dr.
Wonderful doctor with a great demeanor, very knowledgeable and expressing exactly what needed to be done with my hands. I’m very appreciative of him and I have full confidence in him. He immediately set me up to have surgery on my thumb, which I had to wait a month because of other obligations I had, but I am very anxious to get it done. Dr. Adams is a very caring doctor with a great bedside manner, and I’m fortunate to have the pleasure of meeting him.
Took his time diagnosing what was wrong and told me how he can fix my hand.
Very thorough and answered my questions
Dr. Adams has been fantastic during the whole process when my son fractured his wrist. Very thorough in explaining the healing process, the need for surgery, calming him during rough moments, etc. I really can't say enough about him.
Dr. Adams is very knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything while being very compassionate.
Amazing! Walked me through my injury and explained how everything works and what needs fixed. He took his time with me and answered all my questions.
