Nicest physician I have met in a very long time. He listened and was pro active in the steps to rehab. He wasn't all assuming of wanting pain meds I dont even take meds. On the other end he was not quick to throw you on the surgery table. His nurse is also very well mannered and humble in helping.

Understands my needs and works with me to accomplish them, while giving me his wise advice.
