Truly takes interest in his patients. He is always upbeat and encouraging and makes you feel you are the most important person in his day.
An absolute pleasure to have Dr. James as part of my team to deal with pain
Personable, informed, empathetic positive and competent. The injection procedure was a snap as he explained each step. Hip pain has been addressed: I expect sac joint pain will be also.
Friendly and upbeat. Always explains what he is doing before he does anything. Tells me what I will be feeling. Wish I could take him to practice in Naples. 😊
Very patient, listens, and fits his patients in.
Dr. James is a wonderful doctor that listens and puts you at ease. Just talking to him makes you feel better
Dr. James, Heather, Allison, and the entire gang At Advanced Orthopedic or fantastic! He knows exactly where the pain is where it’s coming from and how to take care of it. The best!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very nice people that worked there
I like Dr. James a lot. I think he’s very professional and he’s helped me a lot. I would highly recommend him as busy as he is. He’s very compassionate.
He always explains the how and the why. He’s a great listener and wants feedback from his patients.
