Appreciate the docs work on my shoulder.
This Doc Did A Great Job With My Shoulder Replacement… It’s Been Six Months And I Am Very Happy With The Results So Far!
He's the only orthopedic surgeon I've seen. He's very personable and attentive to your needs. I also loved all his children's art work he has hanging in the patient room.
Great doctor & surgeon!
Extremely nice. Could tell he reviewed my prior records and most importantly-he listened.
Great bedside manner, was a pleasure
Excellent doctor. He provided sound medical advice. He explained the treatment for my issue in detail and gave excellent care.
We enjoyed being under Dr. Garringer’s care! He worked so well with my three year old as his patient and myself and made sure we understood the whole process taking place. Very professional and kind!
Went to my appointment he came into the room and seen I wasn’t in the best place. Took time out of is scheduled and ask me how life been explained getting divorced and the recent passing of my fur baby we talked for about 10 minutes all this before we talked about my shoulder. It made my day.
Had a release done recently. No pain and no pain meds. Pleasantly pleased. Thank you!
