Patient Reviews
May 27, 2024
I was with Dr Wightman for 10 years. In that time he gave me care that I believed to be the best most understanding care I have ever received. I'm a osteomyelitis patient and he made me feel like my opinion mattered. He really cares about his patients and continually went above and beyond to help me with whatever I was dealing with at the time. Thank you Dr Wightmsn I can't say enough good things and tho I haven't seen you in a long time. Your still the best.Best Wishes Sir
