Did not rate Excellent but if I could would have given him a 4.8. Overall most satisfied. Would have appreciated more information or thoughts on how to purge high level of cobalt from my system as a result likely of metal flaking per hip replacement. Though I am of a small % who experience this "flaking", more information (if available) besides clearly explained risky surgery or Chelation Therapy. He is clearly a hugely qualified and excellent orthopedic surgeon and I very much appreciated his time and input.
