Dr. Brotherton and his staff are excellent! I went to see him for shoulder pain and it turned out that I had a torn labrum. He performed the surgery and I am currently recovering with physical therapy. Kristine, who works with Dr. Brotherton, is fantastic! Always there to answer any questions and is so helpful. Thank you to everyone for my successful surgery! I highly recommend Dr. Brotherton!

I cannot have more praise for a physician than I have for Dr. James. Having had my total hip replacement surgery at age 87, and being able to walk without pain almost immediately, I realize he is mighty special. I was able to drive my car after just two weeks, and have been ever so pleased with my recovery, now four months in length. Any kind of surgery takes special skills, and Dr. James is qualified, above and beyond. He is extremely knowledgeable, as well as so very caring and thoughtful. I would, without hesitation, recommend him to anyone who is facing hip replacement . Thank you, thanks you

Dr Beatty is a very engaging, very likeable doctor. He took the time to go over the MRI with me and explain what he thought was going on with the pain in my neck. I like that we're taking the least invasive, least risky approach at this time knowing that if this does not take care of the problem we have other options. Would definitely recommend Dr Beatty. I'm just very grateful that I was referred to him.

Dr. Taylor is very professional, personable and makes you feel at ease feeling free to communicate! I enjoyed my visits with him and he explains my test results well. Although he is very busy, He really takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable understanding issues with your health. I would highly recommend him and Orthopedic Specialists to others.
