Looks at my.whole picture. Very skilled and professional.
Only complaint is that I had to wait in the little room for more than one hour before the doctor came in to see me. The second visit he was on time
Top rating. My shoulder replacement is coming along just great! I have been pleased with every step of the process!
I was told I had a fractured of my left tibia when I met with dr. Martin he was unsure of why i was there and said I had no fracture. He told my to lose the brace and crutches. Ibwas told 2 different thing by two different doctors and would've appreciated more of an explanation of why I was told I had a fractured and now being told there is no fractured
Dr. Martin has a poor bedside manner. He does not listen when the patient is speaking and does not take their feelings into consideration. Has a poor way of explaining things and is always in a rush to dismiss you.
Great caring Doctor
Waited an hour and 30 minutes in waiting room. Patients time is as valuable as the doctor’s.
Excellent time with Dr Martin
I came to Dr. Martin for second opinion for my daughter, and if we did not already have a plan of action set in motion w/our surgeon, He would be our choice hand down. I left his office feeling unbelievably more comfortable and confident with some very hard surgical decisions that had to made. He is extremely empathetic and an obvious expert in his field. I would recommend anyone needing orthopedic surgery or even just a reliable professional opinion to see Dr. Martin.
Professional and prepared for my appointment. I was appreciative he took time to answer my questions and discuss my concerns. My doctor of choice!
