Patient Reviews
Jun 29, 2023
Dr. Tallman has been my surgeon for 20+ years. Beginning with my accident which led to a multiple fracture ankle. Later down the road he has replaced both of my knees. The results are miraculous. I am healed and happy with my recovery. I recommend Dr. Tallman for anyone needing great orthopedic care. Thank You Dr. Tallman
