This was my first time meeting with Derek. Although I felt like the information given to me was accurate, as compared to other visits I have had with Orthopedic. But, I also felt rushed through my appointment. Derek was very direct and quickly ran through all the options, but giving little time to respond and when a chance to respond was given, I did not feel like I was able to share as much as I would like to. Again, I do feel like I had a good visit, just some things I noticed during it that could have made my visit more comfortable.
