Patient Reviews
Nov 04, 2024
4 years, broken ankle twice, 2 specialists and my PCP who blamed my weight. Dr. Views is the only one that took me seriously and found multiple issues due to lack of treatment. My surgery was scheduled quickly and I was given realistic expectations for healing. I couldn't recommend him enough.
