This is the second time Dr Wirges has operated on my hand. And if I would quit falling it will be my last. His staff are all nice and very knowledgeable. If I have to call for a nurse the callback time is minimal. I have recommended Dr. Wirges and OrthoArkansas to many of my friends and family and will continue to do so.

Dr. Wirges is the best. He listens to you and explains procedures. He doesn't try to talk you into surgery. He explains the pros and cons and recovery time. He's done surgery on my right hand in 2015 and he's going to do a different type of surgery on my right hand. I can trust his judgement.
