I moved from the Midwest a little more than a year ago and was taken by surprise on how I didn't seem like just a number at this practice.

Best doctor I have ever been too, period. His surgical work is exceptional, and I have had rapid healing with good mobility on both visits. Dr. Garner took the time to entertain all options, and was patient in waiting for my decisions. He has a wealth of experience in Ortho, through his mililtary work. I would reccomend this doctor to everyone! I couldn't be happier.
