"Dr. West is so caring and knowledgeable. He listens and truly cares. He did my rotator cuff surgery after a fall and was excellent."
— rater8 patient review"I went to see Dr. Starr because of the arthritis in my thumb. He did surgery on it and over a year later I must say I miss my arthritis. I lost 70% strength in my right hand... And the pain is constant."
