Seen Dr. Houle in past for knee replacement.. Excellent care

I came into get a shot ,. It was painless as usual ,that’s because he talks to me while he is sticking me .

Best place ever. Get shot in my knee every 3-4 months and Dr Houle does a great job.

He is one of the best Doctors around.

Well please with his word did a fantastic job on my hip replacement would recommend him highly to anyone

I had been in terrible pain with walking and hip x-rays show problems. I was ready to have replacement, and my first visit to meet him, he made decision in reviewing films, no physical exam or watching me walk. I explained my personal life, very active and caregiver to folks 100 miles away, good window of time to have it taken care of. He insisted try injection. Against my desire, I did, lasted 6 weeks and now in as much pain. It wasn't an answer, like putting band-aid on a fracture.
