Featured Review
Dr. James was great. From the get go he properly diagnosed my hip condition when other practices just didn’t care to treat me correctly. He ordered the proper images which proved his opinion on the matter and we proceeded for surgery. Surgery went great and he was caring and I think he did a great job overall informing me about the surgery and rehabilitation and just what to expect over the coming months. I highly recommend Dr. James for anyone who needs orthopedic surgery.
