Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Childs listened to what I said and was straightforward in the options available to me. I will have total knee replacements. He gave me a timeline of how they will proceed and was very positive about the outcome.

I was easily able to make my appointment online within a weeks timeframe. I was notified many times to confirm and pre register. I was seen in a timely manner on my appointment date, Dr Childs listened to my concerns and explained what the X-rays showed, he offered some treatment plans and answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend this doctor and practice.
