I think like the question asked, I did a little bit long, I think, but that's fine. Like any patients, I think we would like the doctor to talk a little bit more. But this doctor said very clearly with my questions. I asked two or three questions. But anyway, more explanation probably is better or can be considered as improved. Okay, thank you. Bye.
I thought this provider was very good and I was just wondering, are there new breakthroughs in orthopedics? Because I'm not a candidate for operation and I was wondering if there's new breakthroughs that maybe doctors don't know about. That's what I was interested in knowing. Anyway, and then I'm going to come to the doctor again. I'm going to have another appointment with him. I already got the appointment, so I'm going to come again. And the doctor was very good. I liked him very much. Okay. Thank you.
Dr. Counihan was excellent, above excellent in every one of the questions you asked. Okay, he was a very nice person also and concerned. So.
Great first experience
Your orthopedic specialist office is incredible. Your front desk people are polite and friendly and answer all questions and make you feel heard. The doctors and their help, they are very nice. They're patient. Dr. himself is excellent and was beyond what I expected. He went beyond your whole office goes above and beyond all expectations and I really, really love this office. Thank you.
