I have a bit of "white coat syndrome" (fear of medical providers), but that disappeared when I began interacting with Dr. Carr and his staff. They are warm and welcoming, explain things succinctly, and listen carefully and answer questions thoroughly. They all seem like a family, and that is extended to the patients, as well. I feel very well cared for, and am grateful this practice was recommended to me.

Exceptional listening to me, quick visit, quickly got me into MRI and surgery. Dr Carr explained everything so that the average person can understand the procedure. I appreciate their caring.

I had severe pain in my right knee. Dr. Carr ordered a couple of diagnostic procedures and made a diagnosis rapidly (which was appreciated because of the daily pain). The surgery went smoothly and painlessly. While there is always some pain following a surgical procedure, I'm happy to report that I felt tremendously better the day after the surgery than the day before. I'm so glad I got this procedure done so quickly and professionally by Dr. Carr and his great staff.

My experience with this provider has been excellent. The doctor explained to me to the procedure of my surgery after my xrays.. If I had any questions, they were answered & explained where I could understand. I'm extremely please with Dr. Carr & his staff.
