He's a great doctor and surgeon. He's very nice and explained everything about my surgery and he listens to you. He's not bad to look at either He's a cutie. I'll never go to another surgeon.

First time here and he was great. Nothing against him but we did wait about an hour from my appointment time. I’m just glad we weren’t in a rush.

Professional & Sympathetic + Straight Forward just as a Great Doctor should be.
I am very apprehensive about the metal being in my legs for 30 years and time to recover @ 55 is the Big Question.
Regardless, I can't sit on the fence any longer.
Ever Forward.
