Patient Reviews
Jul 23, 2024
Dr. Purcell took a bad issue and fixed it with a new stem and plenty of cement. Honestly I wouldn’t be walking if it wasn’t for Dr. Purcell. Other doctors didn’t have any clue as to what was going on. Dr Purcell did it by the numbers, X-rays, 3D Bone scan. He then went in a repaired my leg with new implants. Going on 2 years now.
