Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

He is super kind and care Thank you

Left knee evaluation
I have been experiencing discomfort in my left knee. I have used this office for my right knee in the past. Mike has been the first contact prior to surgery each time. He is great and review X-rays and then does a manipulation of the knee. After this, he normally orders MRI to be sure exactly what is needed. This is what is happening now and we will see where the results take us. Mike listens, reviews the knee and is careful to insure his evaluation can provide the correct information to the surgeon. He will answer all questions and concerns to make you know what steps are next. Great guy!

Excellent Care!
Michael was well prepared for my on time visit, knew my history, had studied the x-rays which he had displayed to speak from, discuss. He thoroughly explained my treatment options, reasonable expectations for each and his recommended plan. It's very easy to speak with Michael. My many questions, for which he apparently had allotted sufficient time, were each answered in an understandable manner. I'm very confident the visit results are the very best possible!

Mike was very honest and approachable. He addressed my concerns and answered and encouraged questions. I felt heard--sometimes difficult in this large, busy practice! I would highly recommend him for both his clinical expertise and communication skills. Thanks for making me feel cared for and not just "processed."
