Patient Testimonials

“Dr. Davis was a true professional throughout my entire Pre-Op and Post-Op appointments. He was very patient and took his time to answer all my questions as it related to my shoulder injury. I definitely would recommend the services of Dr Davis to others. He and his staff are well trained, great hospitality and VERY PUNCTUAL.”

“I went to see Dr. Thal about my Tennis elbow and he was great. He gave me a brace to wear when I worked out and told me to tone it down a bit on the weight. I haven’t had any problems since and no longer have to wear the brace after 4 months. He also took the time to look at the bursitis in my hip and treated that for me.”
ET, patient
“Received great care from Dr. Walters for our daughter. Would highly recommend! She takes time to observe, answer all our questions, and choose the right treatment and follow up. Would recommend her to anyone searching for a pediatric orthopedic doctor.”
