Patient Reviews
Oct 18, 2024
Over a period of time the pain in my knee reached the point it could no longer be managed with medication. My PCP recommended Dr. Wheeler. In a very short period of time Dr. Wheeler examined me, realized I needed replacement surgery, got me into the hospital and through surgery. I feel like a new person. The pain is gone and I once again walk normally. Throughout the entire process Dr. Wheeler and his staff treated me courteously and professionally. If I need additional orthopedic surgery Dr. Wheeler will be my go to surgeon! I highly recommend him and his staff. 5 stars plus. Thank you so very much, Dr. Wheeler.
