Dr. Quinlan is the doctor you need for orthopedic issues. A talented surgeon, my knee replacement not only is well done, but she leaves you with a clean scar line with no Frankenstein suture marks! She addresses all my issues and if it’s not her specialty she will refer you to the provider that can assist you.
