Outstanding breadth of knowledge, takes the time needed to explain all aspects-surgery, process, what to expect, healing expectations. I can not recommend high enough, he’s excellent! Quick appts, quick in/out but not rushing actual time in room. What a great experience overall.

Dr.Anderson is very thorough and compasionate doctor. He has allowed me to "Kick the Can" down the road a little further. Allowing me to delay the shoulder surgery i know is going to happen. He is not pushing surgery instead he is giving me insight and time to decide on my own. I can tolerate a significant amount of pain and am doimg well without prescription meds. He seems willing to let me decide in my own time when i want to get that rotator fixed. Thats my kind of doctor.
