Patient Reviews
Oct 03, 2024
I have had the pleasure of being treated by Dr Alter for both a car accident and a freak accident where a vase nearly cut my finger off. He was correct in his treatment both times and any of these bad reviews it's probably on them because he really is the best and he knows what he's doing. He's great. Furthermore I was misdiagnosed at the Mass general and he figured it out before they did.
