Unfortunately for me, I spend a lot of time around doctors. I’ve been disappointed by many of them. This however, was not the case with Dr. DePalma! It’s been years since I’ve been to a doctor that is both knowledgeable AND compassionate. I was warned by friends and family that had bad experiences with orthopedists who only want to talk about surgical options. Not only did Dr. DePalma tell me that my injury did not require surgery, he also advised me on a course of action that would be best for healing my injury and preventing the need for surgery in the future.
Provided excellent detailed information for my initial visit. Took time with me and presented information in a user friendly dialogue. Very personable.
Dr De Palma was so caring and explained everything to me and took his time to really understand my situation. Many thanks for getting me in so quickly 👍
