From jiu-jitsu to powerlifting, I've participated in multiple sports throughout my lifetime. For that reason, I've been to quite of few Orthopedics and sports medicine doctors, due to injuries aquired from sports/fitness activities. I will say that Dr. Tefera's knowledge, patience, and care for her patiences are some of the best I've ever encountered. If you want someone who knows what he/she is talking about, go to her. I would recommend her 10/10 times.

I really liked Dr Tefera and she was very good at explaining things and proving treatment options.
