What Patients Say
Testimonials
I am now 6 mos post arthroscopy for 2 torn cartilages. Dr Martin has been excellent from start to finish. I feel so lucky to have had him as my surgeon. My knee feels normal.
Dr. Scott was great and his resident and his assistants were all very nice and knowledgeable. They all explained everything clearly.
Amazing, thoughtful physician who takes the time with his patients and takes a very conservative approach re: surgery.
Dr. Martin is fantastic, patient, and has excellent bedside manner. His team was also excellent. Sean the PA who works with him was very responsive and answered all my questions I had forgotten to ask Dr. Martin. Fantastic Team!
superb care and service in a very comfortable facility
I have had a couple of surgeries and a few procedures with Dr. Martin and he is amazing. His whole staff is great and extremely helpful. I have had to wait on occasion but when I got in they took their time and didn’t rush me. I was included in the discussion of what should be done.
