This is the most honest, knowledgeable, and kindest Dr. I have ever met.  He performed knee surgery on my mother in law who was up and about the same day.  She now confesses, had she known it was going to be such an easy recovery she would've had the surgery years ago.  We highly recommend him.  And he can communicate in Spanish too, so I did not need to accompany her on her follow-up visit.  He's a top notch Dr. in our book.
