We trust Dr Littlefield’s expertise and were extremely grateful for his skill. He made us feel at ease in a stressful situation. He also is a great influence on teenagers. His assistant is fabulous and helpful too.

Dr. Littlefield is a kind, compassionate and competent doctor. He was thorough and gave me excellent advice and treatment. He was very reasonable with the price. I was worried I couldn't afford to get treatment, but he worked with me and I am so thankful for his compassion. Not many like him around. He truly cares about his patients and he is a blessing! His assistant Morgan was very nice and efficient. The front office was very nice. The appointment was easy to schedule and there was very little wait time in the office. I am feeling so much better. Dr. Littlefield treated my wrist and it feels 100% better. He also showed me my x-rays and suggested I see a Rheumatologist- which I will do. Thanks to Dr. Littlefield, I will follow up on this. I can't say enough good things about this doctor. He is the best. Thank you Dr. Littlefield!

Refuses to answer questions. Prays over your hand before surgery. Prescibed a pain med that to which I am allergic and which was entered into the voluminous paperwork three times. Said the brace that was giving my hand bloody avulsions was just fine.

First visit and I felt like I had seen him many times before; after just 5 minutes. Took time to review, diagnose and consult with me and answered my questions.
