Dr. Brady was highly recommended for the problem I am having with my shoulder. He not only ordered an MRI but my return appt is 2 days after. I appreciate his honesty and his approach to care.

Review for Dr. Brady

Dr Bolt is a kind, caring, very experienced surgeon. He did a cervical fusion for me after an accident on my horse. I've had no issues and my scar looks great. He listens intently to your issues with a very kind and compassion for his patients!

Review for Dr. Bolt

Dr. Poole is an amazing surgeon who is genuinely concerned about the quality of life of his patients. I’ve had multiple issues and he has been faithful to isolate each problem and treat successfully when other doctors only treated the symptoms. Highly recommend!

Review for Dr. Poole

So thankful Dr. Brady worked me into his busy schedule! I was having pain in my right shoulder and could hardly move it. Dr. Brady injected my shoulder and I felt the relief soon after. Thank you!!
