Excellent care. Dr. DeNiel was able to manipulate my knee to know the exact problem and care needed.

I saw Dr DeNiel for an issue with pain and swelling of my right knee. She asked me questions as to what activities were painful. She explained the results of the x-rays that were taken. She explained what was causing the condition and treatment options. I chose to receive a Cortisone injection and do exercises at home to try to improve the issue with my knee. I am scheduled to see Dr DeNiel in eight weeks for follow up. The doctor had the MA give me a paper with the exercises and a Rep Band. Dr DeNiel and the staff were very efficient. I was in and out in under 30 minutes.
