Speaks to the point in plain understandable terms.
I've been going to Dr Watson for quite some time now. He replaced my right & left knees. It's wonderful to get my mobility back! The staff is always phenomenal. Efficient, friendly & most of all care about the patients. So very caring. He definitely has great surgical techniques & is well known. I want to thank Dr Watson for giving me back my mobility!
Dr.Watson a miracle man he saved my life. After going to the hospital five other doctors turned me away. I lost my head, cat femur, head, and part of my pelvis. He removed and replaced my hip prosthesis twice, but the infection came back. He was determined to save my leg 18 years later my left leg is 5 inches shorter than my right I’m 62 years old, I’m the fun grandma and enjoy having my grandkids Thanks to Dr. Watson.
I did not see Dr Watson today, I saw another dr
Great doctor, very nice man!
Appreciate both doctors double checking my daughter‘s x-rays, and taking the time
Dr. Watson once again had my best interest in mind with a busy schedule ahead of him. His team member technician Kerry assisted me by helping me to be seen today, as well as Dr. Watson referring me to another specialist in my immediate need. Teamwork in vital.
Was seen by Dr Mark who was very professional, and attentive.
I can’t give 5 stars because I didn’t see Dr Watson. But the other staff was excellent and the waiting time was insignificant, so I’m pretty satisfied.
Dr. Watson and team are outstanding!
