Dr. Davies is the best in my wife and my opinion.
Exceptionally knowledgeable, excellent reputation, explained operative procedure for ankle replacement in simple, understandable, terms, listens, and and personable.
I am very pleased to rate of Dr. Davies, Surgeon, Premier Orthopedic Specialists of Tulsa I had a accident that needed to repair my Achilles tendon. Dr Davies saw with me at least three times before I had the surgeon fixed my tendon. He also looked in at me at that day, and he looked at me after the surgery procedure. Furtherly, he brought me back three more times, to make sure my ankle was working properly. On *all* our appointments, Dr Davies took his time to make sure that I was comfortable and understood what was going to happen, or what needed to happen. Dr Davies is a fantastic surgeon, and I would refer to anyone to him. Thank you very much, Dr. Davies!!!
Dr. Davies listened and gave me multiple options. I never felt pressured to make a decision. He went out of his way to explain everything. I would highly recommend him to family and friends.
My impression was he’s very good at his job. I’m comfortable scheduling surgery with him.
I love Dr Davies. He is thorough, ALWAYS runs on time, he answers all of my questions and provides solutions, cares about me as a patient and is totally knowledgeable. I highly recommend him to anyone with foot issues.
Has a GREAT bed side manor. I would recommend all my friends and family to him.
Dr Davies is awesome! Very down to earth & relatable when a lot of doctors are cold and aloof. He’s clearly very passionate about his work. Everything was explained in great detail before surgery and I felt confident I was in excellent hands. He could talk a little slower, not everyone with thinks as fast as he talks. Overall an unexpectedly excellent experience. He’ll be my first choice for my knee replacement.
Dr Davies is an excellent surgeon and all around great guy. He put both my heels back to where they used to be and I am so thankful that I will not be living with a disability. I work on my feet all day and I get around like a 25 year old. Thanks Dr Davies.
I was so happy to see the healing of my ankle. Dr Davies gave me clear instructions for the next phase. I enjoyed the atmosphere and professionalism. They know their field!
