“The doctor was patient and attentive. He listened to me and clearly took my input to account. When it came to his recommended treatment, he explained the process and procedure thoroughly and made sure that both my wife and I understood. In my follow up visit, when I informed him that the treatment had no affect, he immediately recommended I see a spine orthopedic surgeon, believing that further treatments by him would prove ineffective. He provided a couple recommendations. All in all, if I experience any issues with my hands requiring an orthopedic doctor again in the future, I would definitely use him again.”
