Kind Words From Our Patients!

My daughter was diagnosed with a stress fracture. Dr. Flint made sure she understood her injury and how to heal properly. When she received her “ugly boot” (my daughters words 🙂) the nurse told her to bedazzle the boot. She loved that idea. Dr. Flint and the staff were kind, pleasant, knowledgeable, and helpful.”

It was the first time that i saw him after a failed surgery from a previous doctor. He really listened and cared for what i had to say. Dr. Flint took the time to help me get my quality of life back and set a plan in place to do so.
