Fast and efficient.
Very good. Efficient
Very knowledgeable & explained everything well. Did not feel rushed- I left his office feeling confident with the care plan we discussed. He was very personable & greeted me with a handshake. 🤗
Dr James is a great orthopedic doctor! He always knows what to do for my back pain and if it involves injections, him and the nurse always stay engaged in conversation with you to keep you from thinking about the huge needle he’s about to put in you :-) He has a caring and friendly personality and his staff does too!
