Good guy! Addressed my problem, laid out a game plan, and we had a few laughs. Can't ask for anything more!
The smile is for real What a great Dr Always my pleasure
He was an hour late due to an emergency but he was great. Explained thoroughly and sense of humor too.
DR Brislin is the best. He took the time that I needed for help. He did a reverse shoulder surgery and explained everything before hand so there were no surprises. It was such a pleasure to be treated as a person. His whole office was fantastic for helping me. God bless all of them for the great work they do.
Enjoyed our conversation and his ability to listen to my thought process to arrive at a good solution.
Excellent doctor. Took time to clearly explain the problem. Reviewed MRI in detail with me so I understood the issue.
Excellent over all
Thorough review
Really informative.
Dr Brislin is an excellent surgeon who is knowledgeable, understanding of your condition and supportive of your recovery. He has operated on me three times because I trust his medical capabilities.
