Patient Reviews
Jul 16, 2024
Dr. Behrman and his staff are always very kind and friendly. Sometimes there’s a bit of a wait because he gets a lot of emergency walk in patients at the office, but I don’t mind because he is the best and worth the time! I had an appointment yesterday and a loooong list of questions about an upcoming surgery. He was so great about answering all my questions and easing my fears. He didn’t sugarcoat anything, which I appreciate greatly, so I am fully prepared for what lies ahead. I have complete confidence in Dr. Behrman and I am giving him my left hand to prove it!! ?? I would recommend Dr. Behrman and his office to anyone who is experiencing difficulty with their hands, wrists, etc. Over the top, 5 stars ?? ???????? With much gratitude, Stacy BTW… I just read that Dr. Behrman was/is the Olympic ski team physician!! Now, that’s impressive!
