I saw the PA, Becky for my visit. She was great, complete easy to understand explanation of my injury and suggestions for healing . 😃
Took the time to review my history and explain what is going on and what my options are -companionate and caring
Dr Henshaw has taken great care of me, whether it was a steroid injection for knee osteo arthritis or a fractured patella. Smart, thoughtful, good communicator - these are some of his characteristics.
Great communication from start to finish And great outcome
I did not see the doctor but did see his ??? (don’t remember her title). She was lovely and explained that I could do injections every 3 months. She was informative and nice. Good experience.
As he was when he did my last surgery 20 years ago, wonderful. Planning for this next surgery with full confidence,
Very nice easy to understand and listened attentively
