He was very busy and he didn't have to see me since I booked the wrong specialty. They squeezed me in and actually figured out what was wrong with me in 10 minutes of seeing me. He could have referred me to another specialist but the one hour wait was worth it. His staff was also nice and very accommodating.

Wonderful Dr and staff. Great experience.
Dr. Cross and his office are amazing. Everyone was so friendly and helpful - even pulling some strings to get me into x-rays faster so I could get back to work! While I didn't realize Dr. Cross only serves patients who have hip and knee issues, he was able to speak to me about my arm issue and refer me to a neurologist. Can't speak more highly of him or his staff! Excellent bedside manner and promptly saw me.

Very good
Dr. Cross & his staff are true professionals and treated me with kindness & compassion before, during and after my hospital stay. I have recommended him to everyone I speak to about my knee replacement surgery.
