Does exactly what he says. Thankfully he knows exactly what he's doing. Thank you doctor for the blessed relief !
Dr Getter was very professional, amenable and didn’t make me any promises. He got me an appt with ortho doc (Stephen Anthony) immediately. I was very impressed with Dr Getter!”
Very straight forward. Didn't hem around with problem and what he could do for me.
Dr. Getter responded to all our questions and presented all our options.
The doctor was very nice and took time to talk with me
He is the best orthopedic dr in the county. Very good bed side manner..
I dropped off the consent forms for the surgery to Dr Opppenheimer and Dr Mollod. They wanted a date of surgery so they can give me a test of their own before giving approval. I live alone and have no family or friends in the area. Will I be able to go to a rehab facility after hospital release to service the changing of the bandages and other needs during recovery
He listened very carefully to my complaints, took the time to review the MRI with me.
I greatly appreciate his honesty, Thank you Dr Gedder
Great Doctor.
