Patient Reviews
Aug 30, 2017
I broke my wrist really bad and got an appointment with him that same day in the afternoon. He explained to me the x-rays that were done to my wrist and how minimal the surgery would be. Got it done the next day and you can't even tell I have a scar or nothing. 5 years later no pain free and have not had any problems. Excellent doctors, one of the best in SCOI!
