Patient Reviews
Feb 15, 2025
Dr. Dales is very skilled. Even though I’m still recovering I am confident his hard work, along with my own will pay off for me to finally have the pain and discomfort of an arthritic hip behind me. Thank you Dr. Dales for your professionalism and dedication to helping others.
