Always a pleasant visit. She is thoughtful, welcoming and down to earth. She is intelligent but never pretentious. My daughter respects her and appreciates her approach and that is definitely appreciated.
Dr. Flynn was very professional and detailed in his approach. He took the time to explain the next steps for my elbow revision plan, listened carefully to my concerns, and truly showed that he cared about my situation. I left feeling confident and well-informed
Really nice balance between professional and pleasant. Answered all my questions and explained things very well.
Polite, caring, informative, detailed care she provides. Thank you Megan.
