Patient Reviews
Feb 17, 2021
Dr. Herring is the kind of doctor every doctor should be. He was on time, courteous and friendly. He listened to what I could tell him even though he was well informed about me and had my X-rays up on the screen, and the history of my foot. He treated me like an adult who could understand what he had to say. That was important because after I turned 80, I’ve noticed with some doctors my quality time is shorter. He gave me as much time as I needed and clear instructions on what I could do and could not do if I decided not on surgery. If I decided on surgery he explained what he would do and what my recovery would look like. He also recommended a physical therapist that he would work with on my recovery. In my estimation you can’t get much better than that.
