Dr. Christian is straightforward, knowledgeable, and extremely proactive. He was able to repair a year long issue caused by another surgeon. He knew the issue within 10 minutes of our first appointment and two weeks later performed the corrective surgery. The follow ups have been timely, informative, and he is attentive to details and my concerns. For the first time in 12 months, I finally feel like I'm on my way to improvement. Thank you.
