Dr. Christian and his entire team were focused so much on me I felt like I was the only patient even though the waiting room was packed full of people. This team made space for me on their schedule after I had an emergency and needed care right away. Doctor Christian explained exactly the repair that would be needed exactly what was going on with my knee and also responded immediately when I suggested that I had pain in another area that I thought should be tended to as well. The team listened and were quick to react and help me with my other knee as well. I know the quickness of being able to meet with Dr Christian and his team will help me going forward in a successful recovery to get me back to the work I love doing.
