Patient Reviews
Nov 14, 2024
I appreciated the staff very much. Very efficient, effective at getting me back and prepared for visit. Dr Taunton is a “partner” in helping me make the right decision in treatment course potentially leading to a total knee replacement (already had my left knee done by him). I trust no one to my surgical decision nor the procedure itself. He is the best.
