Patient Reviews
Jun 11, 2024
It was an emergency. I broke my leg. This man did my surgery. 7 months later I am still on a walker as I cannot use my leg from the knee down. He totally messed me up. Another GOOD Dr. said he could fix it but it would take 2 more surgeries but at my age I can't as I have dementia and the last 2 surgeries have made it worse. Please don't go to him and let him mess you up too
