Dt. Scott is very impressive. Alhough he is young for an accomplished surgeon in his chosen specialties, he is extremely well thought of in numerous reviews (1,200+). From my own experience, he accepted my case even though refuShow moresed by amother surgeon. He performed an excellent surgery with impeccble placement of the hardware, which I can see in every xray of my progress. As recovery problems arise, he makes himself available to address the issue. He works closely with the Physical Therapy staff to insure you're moving forward. He's not just Surgery and Done; you're on your own! He listens:attentively, provides his expertise in clearly explaining the problem, and iffers options for care. His mantra is "I am here for you." I feel cared for and that my success in recovery is really Our success for a better life for me. His staff is friendly and top notch too. You could not receive better care
