I had a wonderful experience at this clinic.
Dr Young explained everything about my injury & options for getting better. Surgery or physical therapy etc. A true professional. Truly cares
My son had a minor sprain to his ankle and the practitioner and the doctor were both very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. They included me in all the decisions going forward and we felt very taken care of!
My provider was very informative to me and included me in the decision making process about my care by SHOWING me my x-rays and patiently explaining and pointing out what's going on with my foot and why.
Excellent care
Dr. Young is great!
Dr. Young listened to me and provided me a very detailed plan moving forward with my ankle injury. I felt very heard and I feel confident with what we discussed in the eventual healing of my injury.
I was very impressed at the very short wait time for the visit. Dr. Young is an excellent diagnostician for orthopedic-related injuries.
Always a pleasant experience, great care and treated well by all.
Extremely professional, kind, understanding, and focused from arrival to leaving. Thank you!!
Great experience. We were in before our appointment time. Met with trainer & doctor right away. Talked through everything with us. Felt confident leaving the appointment. Would recommend this trainer & doctor!
Dr. Young and his Assistant were the most attentive and understanding Medical Professionals I have ever had the opportunity to meet and connect with. I wish he were a Primary Care Doctor.
Another great visit!
