The most amazing visit I have ever had!
May 10, 2017Marlissa H.Verified patient
Dr. Bennett was very professional and addressed my concerns immediately. He was a little late for the appointment due to a surgical situation which I fully understand. We will see how the treatment goes, but I think we are off to a good start.
April 24, 2017Stephen J.Verified patient
Dr Bennett took the time to sit and explain to me my MRI and radiologist report. A good sign of a good surgeon is one that is prepared. Don't be fooled by other doctors that don't take the time to look at your MRI let alone to review it with you. I feel very comfortable with Dr Bennett performing my surgery.
April 13, 2017Mark O.Verified patient
I didn't have an appointment and Dr. Bennett's staff still were able to pencil me in. As soon as my paperwork was finished they got my X-rays done and Dr.Bennett visited with me and I was in and out in 30minutes. Excellent care and service.
February 10, 2017Kyle M.Verified patient
Great doctor and staff. Highly recommend him.
More than 1 year agoDonna J.Verified patient
Unfortunately this is a reflection of zoc doc and dr.Bennett's office. I had an appointment at 3 and I wasn't seen until 4:18. Why? Because my information from zoc doc was not sent to the office for an appointment that was scheduled several weeks in advanced. I had to re fill out all the paper work, then I had to wait no one was apologetic towards to wait I had to endure.
November 29, 2016Thomas J.Verified patient
Dr Bennett saw my son for his knee pain. He was very thorough with his assessment. He also spoke to my son so that he could understand what was causing the pain. I was very impressed with our visit dr. Bennett is great and the staff is very nice and helpful
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr Bennett asked several questions and then examined my knee. There are so many places a knee can have injury but he was able to find the exact location and zero in on the problem quickly. We then discussed my options. Happy w the doc. His front office staff...not the best but it's the doc that's most important.
