Doctor has done both of my knee replacements this year & am so happy I chose him. I feel so much better to be able to do all the things I couldn’t do before because of pain. He is very good at what he does!

Did not listen to concerns or take time to evaluate my injury. Simply dismissed my concerns and told me it was inflammation based on my age. However, I was seen by a doctor at a different clinic and within a week was diagnosed with a significant labrum tear.
