Dr Clark repaired a torn distal bicep tendon for me. I found all the positive comments listed here by others to be true for me as well. He explained my options and he and his staff were very supportive before and after the surgery. I highly recommend Dr Clark.

After previously having a bad surgery I came to him in awful pain and he told me, idk what this surgeon did but I can fix u! He not only gave a horrible bone infection that took 6 weeks IV MEDS, the surgery did not work because he left the plate or screws on my spines! He had his partner open me...

Dr Richmond was great. Quickly diagnosed my problem and basically said with time, my knee sprain would heal. No invasive treatments recommended. Got appointment the same day as I called and whole appointment took about 30 minutes...took me early, x-ray, saw doc, and got a knee brace. All I can...

Haven’t got the chance to meet the doctor but her staff in making the appointment wasn’t helpful at all. They cancelled the appointment and made me inactive and when I ask to help after getting in the office with a different appointment, the lady refused to help and was rude.

Dr. Devich was my 4th Rheumatologist I have finally found a doctor who is educated, cares, and is compassionate. My first visit with him lasted a little over 1.5 hrs. That's more time than my last doctor spent on me in a year. For the first time in many years, I finally feel like things will be...

Dr. Spiro did 2 complex spinal fusion surgeries on me 10-12 years ago and he was amazing! Was very honest with me that if I didn’t have the fusion done that I would not be walking much longer. His bedside manners were great and he really showed concern for my concerns. At least now I’m able to live...

It was very pleasurable experience to come to the office. From the time you arrive, the staff treat you so kindly and efficiently. After seeing three other endocrinologists, it was great that Dr. Dixit was the next person to care for my diabetes. He is spot on and works with you to have the best...

I was apparently seen by his so-called assistant who, upon entering the room replied, " There is nothing wrong with your back". I naturally believed him to be joking as I had my disc and a host of "things wrong" listed on a medical print out. "Yea, right", I said with a grin. "No, really. There is...
