He is the best doctor
Exceptional service.
Great experience and got straight to the point
Dr. Varkey takes his time to listen, evaluate and treat! He has repaired both of my shoulders with very little downtime. I highly recommend Dr. Varkey.
Took time to show me the MRI and options including just managing pain. Right then he arranged a cortisone shot. I’m comfortable. Thanks Dax!
