Called and able to see Dr Edwards that day, last Monday. My right arm was very swollen, hot, and hurt so bad that I thought something was seriously wrong. He assured that this was a normal healing process. I was sad that I had to endure more time with the pain and swelling, but veery relieved to know that for this type of injury all was normal process of healing. Thank you, Dr Edwards

They got me in ahead of my scheduled appointment with another Dr. I was in a lot of pain and Dr. Edwards re-examined my injury and was more thorough then my first appointment with another Dr. He gave me a lot more detailed information about my injury and the treatment he recommended for it. He found the problem and it is now being taken care of not to mention they set me up with follow up appointments with an MRI and even the appointments that I need after that. It was a great experience and Dr. Edwards changed my initial view of ORA completely. He is awesome and would recommend him to anyone.
