Awesome doctor and great bedside manner!

Really explained what was going to be done and that there would be judgment calls he would make once he got in to my knee, and set a goal of recovering as much of my extension before my first post OP appointment. This was great it really encouraged me to work at it before I was discharged from the Hospital.

I had several and complicated hip surgery and he been the best. I went through several Doctors and every doctor did not want to perform the surgery due the complicity of the surgery. Finally I came across Dr. McCandless and was very happy he took the challenge. He did a great job with my hip replacement. On all my Dr. appointments he acknowledges all your concerns. I feel I’m in good hand with Dr. McCandless.

Personal Approach to Treating Patients:
“I believe that quality of life and mobility go hand in hand. Surgery is an excellent solution for several orthopedic issues, but is sometimes not the only option. My extensive and nationally recognized training has been focused on perfecting surgical treatment of orthopedic problems. I implement all techniques and technologies available, from computer navigation to minimally invasive surgical options. I believe that knowing when not to operate and use alternative therapies is equivalent in its importance. My goal is to understand every patient’s physical demands and requirements in order to develop a solution customized for their unique situation.”
