Dr. Matlock is truly outstanding. His follow-up care, attention to detail, and willingness to listen to his patients are second to none. He takes the time to identify the root cause of issues and provides effective solutions. My surgery went exceptionally well, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The therapy team is also amazing—professional, supportive, and dedicated to patient recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Matlock and his entire team.
