Catherine was compassionate, professional, and approachable, taking the time to listen to my challenges and explaining how they plan to address the issues once my exams are done. My first visit to the City of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine couldn't have been better. The place is clean and organized, and the entire staff is pleasant and welcoming. I'm eager for my ongoing treatment.

To begin with, the entrance is a very neat and cozy space. The reception staff is super polite. The person who takes you to the room is really attentive, making sure you're comfortable and even offering coffee, tea, or water. I first met Dr. Babatunde a few years back, and it was a pleasant experience that brought me back to this practice. I've also been treated by another practitioner, Catherine, who is just as friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a great orthopedics practice, this is the spot!
