very active listener, incredibly helpful!
Consistently excellent care.
The Best Dr ever
Dr. Connell is so knowledgeable and understanding.
Dr. Connell explains exactly what the injury is and what will be needed to fix it. He makes sure we understand and answers any questions. There is a plan forward - he is very reassuring!
I was tremendously pleased with Dr. Connell’s care for a recent arthroscopic surgery on my knee (meniscus). It was very straightforward and I had a quick and smooth recovery.
Great technical skills and great “bedside” manner. Great overall.
The best!!!!
He is such a good listener and always recommends conservative solutions before any kind of surgery might be an option. I appreciate that.
They don’t come any better than Dr. Connell!! I have the worst arthritis there is in both knees and he has helped me immensely! He is simply the best there is!!!
