Kind, straightforward, listens to patients.
I am proud to call Dr. Murphy my doctor. Since he fixed my knee years ago, I've been able to reach new heights with my health and fitness. I also respect a doctor that is in good physical shape like he is. He's obviously disciplined, and I want the best working on me, and that's what he is in my opinion. I am a hard to please individual, so when I give a review like this, you can take it to the bank. I mean, dang, he operated on President Bush. What more is there to say if the President of the United States believed in him?
Easy to talk to. Heard my concerns. Able to refer me to a good surgeon for my shoulder.
Dr Murphy was very professional and kind. Explaining everything clearly.
