Desiree takes care of multiple Drs every day. She answers the phone for her Dr Team and does not give her name unless asked. I need some surgery again from Dr Marr again for my knee. She is requiring the Dr. who requested the MRI to Refer me to him again! I am following the rules as asked. I am in much pain and have a knee brace I am wearing until I can get my request for my 2nd Surgury Approved!

Dr. Mar has performed four operations on two knees and one shoulder. Every one of them has been successful. He cares and is mindful that at my age (70) healing is important for continued mobility and a quality of life.

After a terrible misdiagnosis by another doctor, I came to Dr. Mar and was so happy. He performed a perfect surgery, followed-up consistently, and truly impressed me. Excellent surgeon, good bed-side manner, and truly knowledgeable. I would recommend him to any friend or family member.
