Patient Reviews
May 22, 2024
I hope I never need orthopedic surgery again. But if I ever do Dr Thornton and his team are the only professionals I would seek out to get any orthopedic surgery or treatment done. There is no one in this office who does not stand out in their work here. I felt like each person I’ve encountered during the process from pre to post surgery made me feel safe and taken care of.
