Great people , great care.
I have always seen Mia before and after my surgeries. Mia is Dr. Tim Trainors physician assistant. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd have to rate Mia a "20". Her knowledge and bed side manner are impecable. I recommend to at least have an office visit with Mia to access your situation. I have no doubt you will be happy and confident that you made the right decision to get an opinion from Advanced Orthopedics. Connie
Real, thoughtful, task oriented.
He tells it like it is and I like ?? that! I am very pleased and comfortable with Dr. Trainor
He's the best and does not sugar coat anything. He understands what's wrong and goes after the problem.
Dr told me I would be up and at em same day. Yes I can put full weight on new hip. But the surgert pain has got me disabled. Extremely hard to get up and down. Due to extreme pain. However it is about as i expected. Just an fyi. Being up and and at em and somewhat back to normal in days is not possible. Dr timothy trainor is a grt dr. I commend him for what he does.
