Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2024
Dr. Watkins is one doctor that listens to his patients. Extremely knowledgeable in his field. He knows how to talk with patients in a way that makes sense. He doesn’t seem to be driven by money like most other doctors. And he know your time is just as valuable as his he does not make patients sit a wait. I have never waited longer than 2 to 3 minutes. He genuinely wants to help his patients get back to normal. I’ve been using Dr Watkins now for 3 years 3 surgeries. He has never failed me. Best hand surgeon in this country hands down second to none
