Patient Reviews
Nov 13, 2019
Dr. Putnam replaced both of my knees in 2016. I felt that I had the best surgeon possible. He explained the surgery and recovery to me, also took the time to answer my questions and my husband since he was my caretaker. The staff is wonderful. I would seek his help in a heartbeat should I need to see an orthopedic surgeon.
