Amazing doctor! Saved my leg, foot and ankle after I fell down my steps. He took care of me right away and gave me the best care! His personality and manner is everything; he is Compassionate, kind, listens and thoroughly cares. His staff is top notch too and I can’t say enough good things about Vanessa and Michelle!
