This was my first time seeing Dr Driscoll and it was a very positive experience. He was easy to speak to and did a great job administering a cortisone shot. I highly recommend him.
Very thorough and thoughtful diagnosis and treatment plan.
Very nice man, good personality.
Excellent listener, explained different options for my care Discussed in full nonsurgical options and we decided on best course.
Great surgeon.
Very knowledgeable, personable, and professional.
I have seen Dr. Driscoll three times for leg surgery (fractured femur) post-op care. Excellent experience all around. Was able to schedule initial appointment in one day after a very frustrating experience when trying to schedule with another orthopedist. Dr. Driscoll is very attentive and has patiently answered all of my questions and those of my physical therapists.
Dr Driscoll is a joy. He is friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He explained everything very clearly to me and answered all my questions. I left his office feeling both cared for and empowered. I highly recommend him.
