People say they don’t want to go to the doctor. I always want to see Dr. Plank or Mike. I got a problem, they go a cure.
Dr. Plank took time and explained everything very thoroughly to me. Was open to my questions and answered them all fully. Very professional and friendly. Highly recommend recommended.
Didn't have to wait over an hour this time.
Dr Plank cares about his patients and is very engaged.
Mike was personable, knowledgeable, and took time to answer any questions we had.
Best doctor in the area if you’re not from this area good luck . On a more serious side he is great. I never left his office wondering or nervous about what decisions I have to make because . Doctor always gives you all the pros and cons of the injury. He will explain in full detail every step and what will happen if you choose this or that .God was good to me when he sent me to him for my surgery. I’ve seen a lot of doctors they tell you everything in 2 seconds and walk out . Doctor Plank even took the time to show me how it happened and how to get back to the best I can be and I also thank him.
It has been a pleasant experience to have this knee surgery. 😃
Dr Plank is professional and listens to me.
Dr. Plank is great! Made me feel very comfortable.
