This was my first visit with Dr. Snyder and his assistant Andrew. I will say this, I felt so comfortable being in their presence and listening to the advice from Dr. Snyder. Will I be going back? Of course I will be glad to return once I'm ready to schedule my surgery. Everything was explained very clearly about the surgery for my shoulders in details. After Dr. Snyder finished with his meet with me, I then was left with Andrew who took his time to really explain to me other things that really made me feel better about going forward with the surgery. I am thankful to the both of them and the rest of the staff that I came in contact with at Southeast Orthopedics N. Even the check in person was very pleasant. The X ray techs was very very careful and courteous in the way the helped me out when handling my body for my X rays because I have several body issues. I was very happy and pleased once I finished with the visit.
THANKS SOUTHEAST!! ❤️🙏🏾🥰
