It wasn’t a positive experience for me. Very hurried, spoke rehearsed/memorized at a speed like audio books sped up, concluding with “any questions” but there was no time to consider or weigh the info and he didn’t pause long getting confirmation from me that I was a joint replacement candidate. Ushered Meg(an) back for pre op instructions. I could not have been more underwhelmed and won’t consider Dr Blackwood for surgery.
