We could not hook up on line to do like a zoom video conf. So, we had to just do telephone interview. Sometimes the clarity of the conversation was not good. The PA who organized the visit worked hard to make it happen. I had a short visit with Dr. Broadkey, who described my radiographs in an understandable, succinct manner.

The doctor was helpful and professional but it appeared that the PA, who was taking visit notes on the computer, was distracted by something on his phone while the doctor was talking to me about treatment options and medications. After the doctor left, the PA asked me what medications the doctor had said to have submitted to my pharmacy. I thought it was a little concerning that the PA was asking me what medications I needed to be prescribed. I could have said anything I guess...

Embarrassed to admit I don't recall the name of the doc I spoke with, but, in short, he was personable, extremely knowledagble and very helpful. Am terribly impressed with my medical team at your facility...beginning with the snowcapped summit of sugical expertise...Dr. Brode. Thanks to him, I am at the gym seven days a week and sneaking in hikes in between workouts. But, down the line, all better than good. Had a very good and helpful review with the doc who called last week. Most of all, he listened and addressed my concerns with real proficiency. Thanks to all on your end.
