I needed major medical help and Dr.Christian along with his crew has been there every step of the way. Highly recommend him. I came from O.I.P. where I felt that I was just a number. Waiting an hr for a 90sec doctor visit and having a doctor who just didn't care. I was dealing with major pain and swelling. Come to find out o.i.p's surgery was sub-par and we needed to start over. Dr.Christian was very informative and showed me everything we were dealing with along the way. He gave me options and things to think about for down the road. This guy is a doctor for the patients. Not a money doctor. You're a patient at oss. Not a number.
