Very personable and professional. Explained my problem and possible solutions. I chose injections in each shoulder which were not that bad. So far, so good.
He explained everything and made databased decisions. Very personable.
Dr. Handling is great! He listens to your concerns, answers any questions you may have and provides an encouraging word as you continue your recovery from surgery.
Dr Handling is a good doctor. He explained the procedure I’m going to need to help me understand, and he recommended one of his colleagues for the surgery I’m interested in.
