My favorite Doctor ever!
Still shocked how easily I found perfect surgeon
BEST…DOCTOR…EVER!! Been going to him for years and have recommended him to many friends and family.
The Best Surgeon Ever ! Very caring & A Good Listener. Knows his job & does it well ! This is my Second Major Surgery with him and I feel much better than I did before! I would and have Referred him to others “” . GREAT JOB DR MICHEALSON !
Very thorough
Was referred by a friend to Dr Michaelson who is very personable and very good explaining all options with therapy as a 1st option , temporary pain relief if needed and or when surgery is necessary if the limitations to lifestyle and pain is overwhelming
I left this appointment feeling dismissed. I was told that for a typical patient, continued significant pain and difficulty walking would warrant follow-up in about a week, but because I have a complicated medical history and “a lot going on,” I was told to wait closer to a month unless my symptoms became severe. I was uncomfortable with being treated differently based on the complexity of my medical history. I would have preferred my current knee symptoms and functional limitations to be evaluated on their own merits
Answered all my questions and treated me as a partner in the process.
Dr. Michaelson has been our family orthopedic doctor for nearly 20 years. Every interaction with him has been outstanding with always positive outcomes. Very grateful for his exceptional care and knowledge!
