Amazing service. Great listener.
Very pleasant visit. Took his time to make sure I understood what the results and plan moving forward is.
They were running late the day I went. No big deal, I understand that happens. However, I didn't care for the fact that my appointment was used to make up his lost time. An hour after my scheduled appointment time, doc spent less than 2 minutes with me. Made no reference to the very expensive MRI that I had done 3 weeks earlier, or to the 6 weeks of ineffective therapy I did before that ... told me to take an over the counter pain reliever and come back in 3 months. ??
Excellent service.
Great bedside manner, he repaired my knee now he’s going to repair my shoulder Did a excellent job on my knee So I’m a returning patient
His staff is always very courteous and so is he.
really professional crew
Went to several Doctor's and they said that my elbow was in such a bad shape that it was to complicated for them to try and fix. Spoke with Mr. Penton, and he was confident in his abilities and said he could help. I was so relieved to here some kind of good news that it pick my spirit up significantly. After surgery I am well please and thankful for his dedication to the field and to people. Thank you so much Mr. Penton for your Dedication and understanding.
He is very patient and explains everything to you.
Dr. Penton is a very good doctor. He cares about his patients.
