I actually saw his PA, Ashley. Great. Thorough appointment as I fell last month and has a lot of unexplainable issues going on. Execellent in every way. Never feel rushed and have a plant moving forward.

Dr O’Brien checked my incision and discussed the success of the surgery. He answered my questions and offered suggestions re: exercise to follow up on my pt. It was a satisfactory review of my post surgical progress.
