Dr Vercio was very pleasant and explained clearly what could be done to alleviate the pain of my issue. He did not seem rushed, nor did he brush off my concerns.

Dr. Version is very skilled as a hand specialist. He is very good as an explainer of what went wrong, what the fix could be and what the long term outcome is likely to be. What more could you want in a hand surgeon? 5 stars.

I felt like he didn’t hear my problems. Didn’t address any of my issues and told me I had to deal with it. I’ve been doing therapy 3 months and they stopped me and told me to see a doctor. Well I saw Dr Vercio just to be told to go back to therapy and deal with my pain until it may get better. There was no further care plan, next steps, what to expect. He didn’t even schedule a follow up
