Spent 45 seconds with me
Very loving, compassionate and caring doctor! Always satisfied with my care.
I’m very pleased with him he did a wonderful job on my knee
Kind and knowledgeable staff.
Awesome surgery! Great doctor and great staff !
Dr Duval has done 4 surgeries on me and is fixing to do my 5th surgery. Both knees replaced, a right shoulder replacement, pins in my left elbow and now a left shoulder replacement I would be lying if I said I was not afraid but I know in my heart I’m blessed to have such an excellent Doctor performing this surgery on me.
Professional and courteous
Good visit.
Every appointment, without fail, I have waited at least 45 minutes to an hour after my scheduled appointment time. Only then am I called back to wait for an additional 10-20 minutes, and once he actually gets in the room, our visit is anywhere from a 2-5 minute affair. I am, therefore waiting almost 90 minutes - sometimes longer - for two minutes of face time. I have visited with him 5-6 times in the span of five months. He is a phenomenal surgeon, that is not be argued, but unprofessionalism and lack of respect for his patients’ time cannot be ignored.
Dr. Duval has always been the best. Very informative and well mannered, highly recommended!
