Patient Reviews
Sep 22, 2024
Dr Schumacher is just plain wonderful. He listens to you. He listened to my husband. He met with us for over an hour explaining and discussing and giving us time together to discuss what he had reviewed and recommended. I literally crawled into SMH for my surgery and a day later I walked out! No wheelchair. No Walker. No crutches. There are not enough words for me to express my thanks to Dr Schumacher.
