Dr. Greatting is a kind and caring doctor. He diagnosed my arthritis in my hands and had a plan of action to help with the pain. He was always willing to listen and discuss any problems/concerns I had. I highly recommend him.

Wait time, but not long. Always friendly, as well as staff. Listens, explains, answers questions. Good surgical results for trigger fingers and husband had rotator cuff surgery. Highly recommend.

I am always treated with kindness and respect from everyone I encounter at this practice. Absolute minimal wait times. Honest discussion of results, options and plan. I wish there was more social distancing room in check-in area.

This is my 3rd visit. And once again I am frustrated as I have had another hour wait. He was suppose to be the best. I’ve NOT experienced it.

Everything good is what I can say about Dr. Greeting. Great surgeon. My should feels good and I can move my arm in ways I haven't been able to in years. I'm still recovering but after just 3 months almost completely pain free. Thank you Dr. Greeting!

Quick and accurate diagnosis. Excellent rotator cuff surgeon. Two years after surgery, I forget that I had major rotator cuff surgery to repair full severance of three ligaments. Full motion and strength after surgery.
