Dr. Overton has done a fantastic job with my 2 knee replacement surgeries. One was 9 years ago and this one went even better. He’s through and considerate. One pain med didn’t work after a short time he switched it with another to help me get relief. Dr Overton is a class act.
Great at answering questions and making sure I’m informed and comfortable.
Always is pleasant and takes time to answer questions.
Very concerned for the patients wellbeing. Great personality
Sincere & engaged fully in my concerns & provided a reasonable approach forward!!
Knowledgeable, listens
The first word that comes to mind is "OUTSTANDING" --- a credit to the profession!
Was clear on prognosis and what to expect
Doctor Overton was clear with the current status of the knee and the options for treatment. Also enjoyable to work with, and we felt confident in his assessment.
He was 45 minutes late but I was told this when I arrived. Luckily I had a book.
