Very informative and professional
Very knowledgeable and honest likable person. My first visit and am impressed with his diagnosis.
I was very impressed with Dr. Watson. He listened to me, he exami ed me and was very assertive with his recommendation for hip replacement. I appreciate the time he took to see me. Dr. Watson came highly recommended to me.
Good surgeon but no rapport with patients. He never comes into the examining room and I would never have met him if I had not asked. I had two surgeries and am pleased with the results.
What a pleasant appointment. Professional, caring and positive.
Dr. Watson's PA, Austin, is very good He listens, he's kind and he is very knowledgeable.
While it is extremely hard for me to understand and navigate the healthcare system as it is today, I know that he is extremely knowledgeable, and I feel lucky that he is my surgeon!
Dr Watson is personable, takes his time and explains in easy to understand terms what your pain relates to and what treatment is advisable to get you the best possible results.
Tell him I am sorry if I made him mad. This has just been really hard on me,
Never actually md. PA was great. He went over everything to my understanding and made a plan of care that I understood. I arrived early and they got me right in
