I recently had a visit with Dr. Lopez and was very impressed with the level of care I received. He was kind, patient, and took the time to listen without ever making me feel rushed during our appointment. He addressed all of my concerns thoroughly and conducted a very detailed and careful exam. I truly felt heard and well cared for throughout the entire experience. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and attentive physician.

Dr. Lopez was personable; explained to me exactly what to expect relative to my diagnosis and made me feel comfortable about my surgery. I did not have a good experience with his scheduler. She came across rushed and confrontational. I did not have a good experience with her.

For conditions such as Carpal Tunnel, Cubital Tunnel Syndrome, Thumb Basal joint arthritis surgery, Tennis Elbow, and Rotator Cuff problems, he uses arthroscopic surgery or small incision techniques.
