"A truly nightmarish experience. Prepare to wait more than 2 hours for 7th floor orthopedics. They will book your appointment and literally make you wait forever."
— Birdeye review"Is pleasant and personable. Answers your questions thoroughly. Does not call with results, but waits until next appointment to share test results (this can be a few weeks). She is extremely busy and twice in recent appointments I felt she had not reviewed my case details carefully."
