I highly recommend Dr. John Neidecker at OrthoNC. From the initial greeting, his welcoming demeanor and professionalism immediately put me at ease. Dealing with a recent shoulder injury was challenging, but Dr. Neidecker and his staff ensured the entire visit was efficient, thorough, and stress-free. His extensive background working with MMA athletes and competitive sports provided me with complete confidence in his diagnostic and treatment approach. I am exceptionally pleased with the care I received and would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking an orthopedic specialist with deep expertise in his field of medicine.

He then went on to go to medical school at Rowan University, School of Osteopathic Medicine in south New Jersey.
