Dr Cantrell is an excellent physician and talented surgeon. Explains topics well. He listens and answers questions thoughtfully and simply. He was responsive to my specific situation and tailored my repair and rehabilitation to help me completely recover. He always made himself available should I have questions. I would (and do) regularly recommend him highly.
Outstanding Service and support!
Always kind and listens. Straight forward and in and out appointments.
Attentive and informative. Great "bedside" manner.
Dr. Cantrell is a great doctor! Always very friendly and thorough. Will highly recommend.
Dr. Cantrelll is a fantastic physician! Working with him for many years as an athletic trainer and then being a patient of his, unremarkable care! He is thorough and compassionate, and you can tell he truly loves his job! Being on both sides makes you really t see the type of care he gives, not only to his athletes, and an over the hill athlete to my 85 year old Father in Law. Can’t say enough about his skills, dedication and compassion!
Very good and caring. Knowledgeable and
Awesome Dr. The patient service at TOC has just been amazing.
Very knowledgeable and professional
I didn’t actually meet with Dr. Cantrell. I met with the person who meets with the patients after procedures. I had questions and concerns about potential issues in the future and felt like I was dismissed by this doctor. I didn’t leave that appointmen feeling very good.
