Patient Reviews
Mar 06, 2025
Dr J Williams followed up with me this week after a flare up of cubital tunnel related symptoms post surgery 2021. He recommended a splint to help calm the nerve down before considering other options. Dr Williams is always very open, answers all of your concerns, and very friendly. I’m glad he’s my doctor.
