So far my visit with Dr Driscoll was good. He comes across a bit business like and direct. I didn't think he was paying attention and I was initially feeling like I was going to be dismissed but he summed up the consult with all my concerns and mentioned he would send me for an MRI. So far so good. We'll see how the results and the next steps go.
Dr. Driscoll is the best orthopedic doctor. He is very professional, skilled, and kind.
