Patient Reviews
Nov 24, 2024
Front office was very efficient, then met Dr Scherer. He was my 4th dr I had consulted with. I knew he was the one. Very clear about procedure and he didn’t disappoint. I’m one year post op and no problems. After a follow up, he called on a Saturday to make a suggestion; that let me know he heard my issue and processed it, didn’t just dismiss it. It had to do with a prior spine surgery that could possibly affect my ability to walk long distances. I walk pain free (knee) but fused spine is a bit more challenging. I can’t say enough about how caring Dr Scherer and his staff are, my quality of life is 100% better. Consider me a grateful patient.
