There are no words to express how amazing Dr. Matthews is. From the first meeting, through the knee surgery and all the complications he has been absolutely incredible. This young man will be in the top 10 surgeons within his specialty in this country. I’ve seen many doctors in my years and most have been very good. Dr. Matthews is beyond good, beyond great. He is truly exceptional. Thank you Dr. Matthews.
