Patient Reviews
May 29, 2020
Three visits over 5 year period. She listened, performed a thorough hand and arm evaluation, then discussed her findings. I found her interested in helping my problem. Good communication. She ordered appropriate xrays and emg then recommended conservative therapy over surgery which I appreciate.
