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.

Dr Val is always fully present when he sees you. I have the feeling he pays attention to your concerns and remembers me from visit to visit.

I'm not really confident with his diagnosis. He made it quickly and it's the opposite of what my physical therapist thinks is going on, so I'm not sure who is right. It depends on how my recovery goes.

Dr. V could not be any better at his practice. He figures out the issue right away and gets the plan together. i have had 2 wrist issues and he has treated both. once with surgery.

I lost the first digit of my left thumb in an accident this past April, and Dr. Shubinets rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night and reattached it. The surgery is so meticulous that that my thumb looks perfect, I am frankly amazed this surgical wizardry and I am therefore most willing to spend 3 hours traveling to his office. A very nice man and a superlative surgeon.
