Christopher Lechner, M.D.
Professional, courteous, listened carefully about my condition. Immediately made the diagnosis and the treatment recommendations. Only wish that I had a primary care physician in the Asheville area like this. Don't think he can be cloned.

Jesse West is a great Surgeon. He came in and he asked everything that needed to be asked, he went over everything that is wrong with my shoulders and all that it will take to correct my issues and repair my shoulders with a full Shoulder Reversal.
He will repair my right then once it heals he will repair my left shoulder. He is confident in his abilities and his reviews are very good. If we waited more than 5 minutes we would never complain because the staff here were all very nice, polite and courteous. We appreciate going to an awesome practice like this. I wish all of the Doctors offices were this great. Thank you Dr Jesse West and all of the staff here at Carolina Hand.
