Dr Placzek took excellent care of me. Several years ago I had issues with my left thumb. Turned out to be trigger thumb and after some treatments Dr Placzek operated on it. It is absolutely perfect to this day. That’s why I went back when my right thumb started giving me trouble.

Very good patient rapport; communicated in an easy manner and left me feeling that after all the diagnostics had been completed he would be able to tell me exactly how we need to proceed.

He is so knowledgeable and nice. He was so gentle. I got a shot in my thumb for trigger thumb and it didn’t even hurt. The one I had prior at another practice really hurt me badly for over a week. He explained everything thoroughly. I just love the guy.
