Dr. Schweller was great, he was very thorough in his examination and testing of my foot and listened carefully to the issues I'd been having. He gave options for the treatment plan for my issue (mortons neuroma) and was a great coach through the steroid injection and even went to get my husband to come back and hold my hand through it. He told me exactly what to expect and reminded me to breathe. I have steps to help manage and a follow up plan if it doesn't improve as expected. 10/10 would reccomend to anyone needing an orthos care.
Dr Schweller was very pleasant, understanding and explained my hand and elbow injuries. All of his assistants were kind and considerate.
Appointment was 1:20 was called back at 1:25 there was no waiting everything went like clockwork. Saw Dr Schweller. He was so nice great bedside manner. Explained everything in a way I could understand. Everyone at the office was super nice. The nurse, the lady that scheduled my surgery. All very compassionate answered all my questions.
Dr. Schweller has been great through out this process of having a broken leg. Very informative, very kind. I would recommend coming here.
Complete examination. Very informative and phenomenal Doctor
Courteous and professional services were provided thru out the visit
Dr. Drouillard recently did a revision on my knee replacement. He and the residents were great at easing my anxiety. This was my third time having a replacement and I was very , very scared. They no longer make my original implant so the whole thing was redone. After 6 weeks I am walking on my own and have so much less pain thanks to Dr. Drouillard. Really pleasant staff also from check in to check out!
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience! It's wonderful to hear that Dr. Drouillard and his team were able to ease your anxiety and provide excellent care during your knee replacement revision.
