Excellent doctor. Caring. He explains everything and asks if we have any questions. He does not dismiss my concerns but listens.
He and his staff are always professional and kind!!!
Good day, DR Tooze had been my Dr for over 10 year's and now since he retired I have heard of and work with some of his patients he has done surgery on. So that's why I needed a very excellent Dr.
Hey is the best!! He fixed my shoulder when my shoulder within a couple of days I was hardly in pain at all. What I love the most about him is he'll sit in the appointment and explain stuff to you not just push you out the door.
Great surgeon (reverse total shoulder replacement). Chances are high that I will need the other shoulder replaced also. HE will definitely do that surgery also.
Dr Manifold has always been pleasant and processional. He and his staff are always ready to help with any question. I have 2 knee replacements and am doing well..
Very accommodating.
Explained what was going to happen in surgery clearly and made sure to ask if I had any questions.
Very nice doctor, and really caring.
Professional, kind and presented a clear plan for the issues with my shoulder.
