I was asked to provide a previous surgery report on my afflicted joint, which I did, but neither the doctor or staff took the time to look at it. The Dr. did seem to know what he was talking about though.

Dr Crandall is a highly skilled well trained surgeon. Equally important he is a kind, caring person. I unequivocally recommend him.

The appointment today with Dr. Crandall was a Cortizone shot to the upper part of the left thumb. Helping with the arthritis that I have. We also discussed the operation that he did on January 23 to remove a.Ganglion cyst. It was quite large and he did an excellent job removing the assist. Dr. Crandall is a very pleasant doctor as well as a person. Very easy to talk to and explains everything by detail. Thank you, Dr. Crandall. ;-)

Crude sense of humor; lacks empathy. Will not see him again.

It was a really fast visit to just get referred to get an MRI. This was after a visit to MSJ + Today. It felt like factory orthopedics. Next time I'll just ask my primary for a referral to radiology.
