Smart multitasking doc.
He explains and listens so well, always gives options for treatment. A great “bedside” manner.
Dr Erickson and his staff are awesome. Their service is EXCELLENT!
Very good and professional
Excellent Doctor with a wonderful & caring staff. Best experience ever. Highly recommended.
Love my doctor and staff. Wouldn't change them for any other.
Compassionate and thorough care from a doctor who listens to your issues/concerns, discusses the best treatment plan and forecasts the typical length of healing. The team working with him are great, too!
Extremely kind and very thorough in his explanation of my upcoming procedure.
Dr. Erickson is professional, empathetic, and kind. He listens and explains issues well and offers options without pressure. I’m so pleased that I was able to see him.
Dr Erickson spent a lot of time explaining and using charts to show me what was causing the severe pain in my wrist. The new brace is wonderful and has lessened my wrist pain greatly. I look forward PT to help heal my tendinitis. Thank you.😊
