Dr. Dean was very thorough in telling me what he was going to do surgically and showed me why. He explained what I could expect during my recovery and what I could safely do and should not do during the healing process. I was verShow morey anxious prior to speaking with him. He answered my questions and I'm much less nervous about the surgery and recovery process.
Dr. Dean and staff are always polite, thorough and informative. Thankful for everyone in the office who helped get me to a full recovery and especially the front office staff who always had me leaving my appointments with a laugh Show moreand a smile. I highly recommend BOSS orthopedics to anyone I know that may be in need. Thank you again!
