Nov 21, 2024
I have had a total of 4 knee surgeries on the same knee in 29 months. Two Drs. from Macon,Ga did a replacement and ended up having loose hardware x2 and infection third time.Saw Dr. Tankersley for another opinion and he had to do another replacement due to loosening of hardware. He is the best! Such good “bedside” manner, caring, kind and easy to talk to. Helps you understand what is going on.The up front staff, Nurse Harriet, Ashley Skinner,NP, X-ray tech.. everyone super nice!If you are looking for a great Orthopedic Dr , Dr Tankersley in Statesboro,Ga. Is the one to see!
