I thank GOD for Dr. Laura Dunn.
The best care anyone could ask for
Down to earth professional with a wonderful demeanor and excellent presentation of the diagnosis.
Dr. DUNNE listens to your problems and explains the best options for you. This is the second time I've went to her with knee problems and would recommend her to everyone.
Dr. Dunne is so wonderful. She showed me the X-ray and explained the mechanics of what was happening in my body. Recommended some exercises, encouraged me to walk for a doable amount of time and taught me stretches to do after I walked. She recommended softening my mattress with a topper and asked if I had any questions which she then addressed. She is always kind, personable, and she really knows her stuff!
Always caring and great!
