Patient Reviews
Jan 21, 2025
Excellent , had both knees replaced after ignoring the deterioration and pain because I needed to work. Wasn’t sure he would accept me as a patient because of how much damage I had done to my knees of my ignoring them. Pleasantly surprised when he accepted my case and explained what he needed to do and questioned me about what I thought my best outcome would be. He pulled no punches about what he hoped for the outcome and we agreed upon a plan. Do yourself a favor if you need knee replacement and go see him.
