Very personable. He explained everything to my understanding. He displayed my exrays and explained what I was seeing and how he would treat my problem. He asked me if I understood and went on to answer my questions. I recommend Dr. Vest to anyone in need of orthopedic care. My husband was impressed by his thorough explainations and his plan of care.
