I’m so grateful to dr freeman for his consistent efforts to include my wishes in my treatment plan and perform excellent medical care for me. I had a meniscus repair surgery & im very appreciative of Dr Freeman and all of the staff. I was in horrible pain and they worked with patience and professionalism to help me even on my worst days. I could never say thank you enough.
Dr. Freeman is an exceptional doctor. Explains everything, very personable, very understanding.
Dr. Freeman was kind enough to do my procedure when Dr. Lawson was unable to! I really appreciated the time he took to meet with me and go over what the procedure would look like! He was kind, friendly and professional!
