Dr. Handling has been excellent with my knee replacement. Always kind and always willing to help me.
No bedside manner whatsoever. Came into office visit with a chip on his shoulder and no compassion. When questions were asked, his responses were condescending and downright rude.
Compassionate understanding & knowledgable
