I have never had a bad experience w/anyone from this Orthopedic Clinic! Excellent staff!
Ryan has a way about him that puts me to ease, even when sticking a needle in my knee. He's very kind.
Very pleased with his professionalism and care.Easy to talk to. Appreciated his responses to my questions in terms I could understand.
Again my Care team is outstanding. I have hand picked them bc I can be hard to deal with bc of all my health issues. I like Dr's that are straight with me and my team has changed over the years however; I am very satisfied with them all.
Top notch treatment. Exceptional! Professionalism and knowledge are beyond expectations. I would never consider going anywhere else for the medical care I received and will inform all concerned these are the folks you need to contact.
