It has been a long time that I have had a provider that had made me feel validated and not like I was asking stupid questions or that I am Wauseon his time. I am very thankful that he has taken the time to make me feel very comfortable and all is my questions are answered

September 16, 2023ORTHOPAEDICS CENTERHe was very nice man. Very courteous. I just was disappointed that I didn't get more advice and had to solve my problem. Maybe it's not something that he has expertise in or maybe I didn't ask the correct questions. It could have been partly my fault.
