Dr. Wolverton is an outstanding surgeon and doctor. Like other reviewers have said he listens to your questions and answers them in a way that you understand. I had total knee replacement eight weeks ago and I feel I am on track to a complete recovery. I would highly recommend Dr. Wolverton if you are searching for an orthopedic solution for your knee pain.

This was my first appointment with Dr. Wolverton and definitely was impressed with his care and attention. Right on time, gave me an overview of issues with both knees and provided recommendations with a variety of options. He allowed me to make the choice, then fully supported and explained in further details the course of action taken. Dr. Wolverton even followed up 3 days later with a text message checking on me. Highly recommend him for ortho issues!
