Great surgeon thank you so much for helping me. Appreciate you very very much.!
He was a hour late and spent 1 minute with me. I won’t be back!
He knows what he’s doing! Top-notch Doctor in my opinion.
Waited an hour pasted my schedule appointment time
He was very kind but I feel like I didn’t get a real resolution for my issue
He gave me two minutes in exam room before he left. Terrible bedside manner and does not communicate to the patient. He asked no questions about how this happened, no details about anything related. Said get MRI, nothing more turned around and just left. His assistant could not answer any of my questions. I see this is common problem in his reviews. I have been practicing in medicine 45 years and will be looking for another physician that has general understanding about patient care. Absolutely DO NOT recommend him for treatment.
Although he tends to run a little late, he answered all my questions and took great care of me.
He was in and out maybe 30 seconds. Didn’t introduce himself didn’t explain what he saw or felt
Dr. Martin was very thoughtful and thorough. Would highly recommend him.
Quick diagnosis and good plan to put me on track for my knee pain
