Patient Reviews
Feb 18, 2024
Dr. Creighton performed a meniscus repair on my right leg in June 2022. He is an excellent orthopaedic surgeon, reflected so much attentiveness and care that is greatly appreciated. I was very nervous about my surgery, and he took the time to explain thoroughly what to expect, and the outcome was better than I could've anticipated. Very grateful that I was able to find a trustworthy surgeon after relocating. I will definitely refer him to others. I highly recommend him!
