Simply the best!
when you have to pull up a list of symptoms on the web in front of your client and read them off for list of causes is not a good idea, it made me think he didn't know what he was doing, than tried to send me for unnecessary testing.
caring. competent. calming presence. explains orthopedic damage. answers questions honestly. during surgery weighs option(s) for best outcome. a superb surgeon.
An outstanding doctor!
I'm extremely happy with my knee replacement experience!! Getting ready to have my other knee done.
EXCELLENT ATTENTION AND KINDNESS
I found Dr Eichten to be extremely knowledgeable, genuine, and has helped me with my knee and hip recovery. I felt at ease with his entire office since my first appointment. Very grateful patient.
Feels better already. Thank you!
Thanks!
My visit to Dr. Eichen was professional and Dr. Eichen took very very good care of me.
