Excellent Doctor. Very personable. Great bedside manner.
He was excellent, very knowledgeable & very nice as well.
Dr. Erikson is the best. He listens, he is kind, he has helped me with several hand issues. All treatments were very successful. I would definitely recommend him!
I fell and fractured a bone in my right wrist. Dr. Erickson did a great diagnosis, helped me determine the remedy and then did a perfect surgery. Post op was also first class. Rehab was also first class.
Dr Erickson and staff was very kind, professional and efficient. I would highly recommend this practice.
Such a caring doctor and explains everything to me. Excellent doctor. I have recommended him to friends.
Very understanding and knowledgeable
Terrific bedside manner. Shows the highest concern for his patients.
Dr. Erickson was very thorough , professional and personable during my visit on 11/17. His experience, knowledge and genuine interest in explaining my issue and options for care made me secure and included in this process. Thank you for including me in all aspects and treatment.
Great visit as always. I always get in on time and actually yesterday I got in much earlier since I got there earlier than expected. All the personnel is great. Shots in the trigger fingers don’t feel so great at the time, but not having them pop now is wonderful. Thank you for your wonderful care andservice.
