Dr Michaelson is probably one of the most approachable drs I have ever had. Always willing to take the time to answer questions and explain things. Great bedside manner and super smart! Highly recommend!

Listens and answers questions patiently and completely. Very friendly and understanding of nervousness regarding procedures.
He dud a great job on my knee replacement
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Michaelson for many years and have 100% confidence in him and his team. Easy to talk with and has always been accurate with his diagnosis and assessments. Recently had full knee replacement and could not be happier with the outcome.
i saw dr michaelson for a torn tendon and some other issues with my shoulder. dr michaelson took time to thoroughly explained my options. i initially went with pt which helped although i still had significant pain when completing various tasks. dr michaelson performed surgery on my shoulder 3 months ago, i am very pleased with the outcome. i’m still not 100% but my strength is coming back and i feel great. thank you dr michaelson!
Very nice,pleasant, and knowledgeable.
Dr. Michaelson is a wonderful doctor who explains things well. I do think the staff overbooks him which makes the waits very long and his time with me as a patient is limited.
Dr. Michaelson is very engaging, knowledgeable and he was very attentive to my personal situation. I highly recommend Dr. Michaelson.
He was kind, thorough and explained everything. All staff was great!
