We saw and was treated by Karen Orr and was totally happy with her. She even called later about a different matter that had come up.

Dr. Arnold and his staff are my silver lining after being weighed down by my dark clouds (health issues). I have hope now and I'm grateful. They listened to my problems and concerns and took time to make sure I had answers and a plan.

In my experience with Dr. Arnold he has proven to be an excellent surgeon with an amazing bedside manner. He always shakes my hand as well as anyone else's who is with me. I am made to feel respected and really listened to as far as any concerns I may have. He never makes me feel rushed or of little importance. I recommend him to everyone I know and will continue to do so.

I did not see Dr Arnold but the Lady Dr(can't remember her Name) was excellent, so easy to talk to and very direct which is what I like. Xrays went well and my knees feel good today hope it stays that way. Diane

Excellent experience with the entire joint journey team. I highly recommend Dr. Arnold. He is caring, compassionate, and very meticulous. I have had 5 joint surgeries and this by far was the best care i have received.
