Patient Reviews
Sep 13, 2025
His staff were nice my appt lasted 4 minutes. He misdiagnosed me with IT band hip issue. He just looked at X-ray and asked a few questions. He did not watch me walk or touch my leg. He was dismissive when I asked him 1 question. I am now in major pain 2 weeks later and need to wait for new orthopedic apt out of work and very annoyed at my lack of care
