Talked me through the surgery
Very personable,
Personable, efficient and knowledgeable. :)
Dr. Puri was great every step of the way. On the initial visit, his diagnosis was correct and the surgery went as planned. I am now onto rehabilitation and will be back to see him in 6 weeks.
Dr Puri takes time to listen and is a very good surgeon. He has worked on me twice with more to come. I trust him completely.
I am so glad that I had 2 different doctors recommend Dr. Puri to me. I have a very complicated hand ✋️ that is going to need surgery. I am putting my trust and confidence in him and I feel very good about it.
It was frustrating to have an 8:30am appointment and doctor not get to me until after 9am.
Dr Puri is very thorough and has great bedside manners. He takes the time to answer all of your questions and wants to make sure you understand what is going on. Have had a wonderful experience with him and his staff! Would 100% recommend
