Although , a very busy Doc/surgeon, he took time to explain an issue & his advise for ‘next steps’ with me when my appt was originally with his PA!!!

Dr. Toomey understood my past issues with my hip and all of the steps I have taken to get it better. I am relieved that I finally will get a new hip and resume my normal activities.
