Ignorant and passive aggressive with the feelings of the patient.
He is a great surgeon and person, I wish there were people like him.
Best Doctor!
Dr Plank was very kind. He took his time examining and explaining the possible injury with my daughter. She said he actually listened to what she was saying. She felt like he was very attentive. My husband and I thought he was great as well.
I can’t thank Dr. Plank and his office staff Enough for taking such good care of me after shoulder surgery. The PT staff there has done a great job as well.
I really appreciate how well they explain and answer my questions.
Dr Plank has been my family go to for many years, pulls no punches + amazing bed side manner = a great doctor

He is always prompt, honest, doesn’t rush you, all around an amazing doctor
