Patient Reviews
Nov 19, 2019
I’ve been seeing Dr. Boles for over 15 years. He’s performed carpal tunnel release surgery on both my wrists without any complications either time. I’ve had several other orthopedic procedures done by several different surgeons in my life. Dr. Boles is one of the best. And he’s very relaxed and so easy to talk to.
