Dr. Werries spent the right amount of time explaining the procedure from beginning to follow-up. Did an excellent job. Four days after surgery I was back at the hospital to begin therapy. Doing fine after ten months. Would recommend him to anyone!

I could not have had better care - he has a great bedside manner - follows up and is extremely careful making sure you are fit for surgery and takes great care in guarding you against any type of infection before and after surgery. I know he his leaving the area and if need to have surgery again I will consider going to where he is moving to.

Dr Werries has performed a total knee replacement on both my knees in the past three years. He is an excellent physician and surgeon and cares about his patients. Our community is very sad to see him relocate to Florida. I would highly recommend him.

I have had Bilateral Hip replacement by Dr. Werries. He explained the procedure and my limitations after surgery in detail. He took the anxiety and worry about with surgery by taking the time to answer my question. He is a caring professional that get to know his patient and looks out for their best interest. I would highly recommend Dr.Werries as an Orthopedic Surgeon.

Dr werries is not only an excellent surgeon and diagnostician, he has a very friendly and comfortable manner, and gives very thorough instructions, and information needed to make an informed decision. I have experienced his professionalism as a patient on several occasions for myself and family members, as well as working with him in the perioperative areas as an RN.

I chose DSR Werries to replace both my knees. My wife chose Dr Werries to replace her left knee. Both of us had a great experience and a very good result. Dr Werries is very concerned for his patients and his manner is warm and friendly. WE strongly recommend Dr Werries to his new patients in Florida.

Dr. Werries has been my orthopedic surgeon for over 5 years. He was always professional, courteous, compassionate and accurate! He always listened to me and explained everything to me including all options for my injuries, what the MRI's showed and answered any and all questions I asked him. I so wish he was not leaving the area, but if I ever live in Florida, I will look him him to see if he would accept me as his patient!
