I cannot say enough good things about Dr Darr and his Staff. Dr Darr performed knee replacement surgery on both my wife’s knees and the outcome was remarkable .So when I developed severe pain in my right knee there wasn’t any doubt where I was going. Dr Darr had me evaluated and the outcome was a bad meniscus tear. Dr Darr put a plan together, and performed the repair surgery. The outcome was great I was walking the next day. They treat you like family there. Knowledgeable and professional.

I had total knee replacement surgery in August, on my right knee and I feel amazing! I could barely walk, and unable to drive! I am currently going to Physical Therapy with little to no pain. Dr. Darr is a miracle doctor! His staff is amazing. I highly recommend him!
