Patient Reviews
Oct 22, 2024
Dr Belzer replaced my left knee 4 months ago and it has been a game changer! I breezed through PT, followed by international travel and vigourous farm work, and am preparing for replacement of the right knee next month. Dr Belzer and his team are skilled, attentive, compassionate and no-nonsense.
