The reviews listed below were collected independently of Greater Chesapeake Hand to Shoulder through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
He is an excellent medical professional and surgeon. I appreciate his accomplishment on my thumb. He doesn’t have a warm bedside manner or a comforting posture regarding the trauma that surgery actually presents to a patient. He’s simply one and done. The human element is absent. I’d say surgery is absolutely a CARING profession !!!! It took 10 years of grueling study and dedication to get where he is.
If the goal is to do good…THE GOOD IS IN THE CARING.

Can't say enough kind things about him. I thought the only solution to my finger was amputation, he saved my finger and made it look normal. He is just wonderful.
