Dr. Bush was my Orthopedist before I moved back to Southern California, and I just recently reached out to him to let him know how impactful his treatment was. I had plantar fasciitis for years, and not only did he listen, not only did he understand what my problem was, he actually had a plan to FIX me! Over a period of only two weeks, he gave me steroid shots in my heels and fixed this physical issue that was only getting worse. I thank him every day as I wear regular shoes - and no pads!

My initial consult with Dr. Bush was remarkable, he was relatable, kind and patient with me and helped me find the best treatment care for my condition.
