Patient Reviews
Oct 10, 2024
Thoroughly answers all of your questions and I had lots. Gave me a great exercise to strengthen my quads pre knee replacement without going to PT so could save all my allotted PT appointments for post knee replacement. Addressed my concerns about my reluctance with full anesthesia by suggesting I was a good candidate for outpatient procedure and gave me the option of using a facility which he often uses and likes very much where spinal blocks are routinely used. You leave the office feeling he is a very caring and extremely knowledgeable and competent physician. I have been putting this operation off for years and I finally actually feel excited about going forward now that I have interacted with Dr. McCandless.
