Attentive, helpful and very patient. Didn't rush me and answered all my questions. I recommend dr. Jenkins to my friends and family who have failing body parts

This is the one year anniversary of my right hip replacement and I am completely mobile and functional thanks to Dr. Jenkins. At 80 this is no small thing. My recovery was smooth, the post-op follow-up was good.
All the staff from the x/ray teach, the PA who support him are great, too.
I can’t recommend him more highly. I’m his biggest fan!
