Very knowledgeable
Everyone was nice and helpful
It was a very rushed visit due to the fact that he had emergency surgery to do but he did explain what I needed done.
Talking with Dr Duval was short. This is my 2nd experience with my knee so I figured the next step was knee replacement. No further talking needed. I did get an injection in my knee (which I never had before and was kinda skeptical) BUT I have to say I NEVER felt it. EXCEPTIONAL! It only lasted about 2 hrs and the pain came back with a vengeance!
Super staff!!
Never a bad experience!! Staff is the BEST!!
Dr Duval has average bed side manners
Dr. Duval was very courteous & friendly.
Very professional and took time to listen!
He take time with you and Andrew all of your question
