Blake Bodendorfer, MD Reviews Coming Soon
Dr McCarthy is amazing. He did my rotator cuff surgery 9 years ago and my bilateral carpal tunnel surgery before that. He takes his time to explain everything and asks questions about you. I was so happy that he is still practicing when I made my appointment for a ganglion cyst causing pain on my hand today, which he aspirated. Highly recommend!
Lula W.10. Dr Rosipal is the best ortho doc in the region. I trust him more than any other physician I see for anything. His staff is great too. I would not even consider going to another physician unless he recommended me to do so. Shoulder injection at 930 AM. 120 PM and already some improvement.
Joe C.With the exception of the patient registrar I would rate the visit a 10. Dr Otterberg was cordial and professional, as usual and I was in and out in an efficient amount of time. I had to greet the registrar who did not even look up at me and was very robotic in her manner as if she were too busy to bother with me. I would rate her a 3 and that's generous. I was a registrar before I retired and I would never treat a patient as she did.
