ontime appointment. thorough examination of my continuing issue. he explained two options that could provide some pain relief and increased mobility. more importantly, he explained what to expect from each option so that I would not have unrealistic expectations.
Very efficient

Great surgeon. Competent and professional. Did a great job on my shoulder replacement. Takes the time to explain everything, doesn't rush you to get on to the next patients.
