Doctor Scott took time to listen to my story and allowed me time to ask questions. He was very compassionate and thorough. Would highly recommend him to family and friends.

Dr. Scott was exceptional! Truly I was thrilled to have everything explained to me so thoroughly and in language I could understand. He laid out in detail what his thoughts were, the plan of treatment he was recommending, step by step explanations of the procedure, even showing me the implement that would be used during my procedure. He also showed me the ultrasound while he was doing it and explained what everything was that I was seeing, and how/why those things were impacting my issue and also how the procedure would work to resolve those problems. Dr. Scott was honestly one of the best providers I've ever seen. I left my appointment with all my questions answered, feeling completely informed, and had so much relief knowing I was in extremely capable, expert, knowledgable,and compassionate hands. Wonderful experience. I would recommend Dr. Scott enthusiastically to anyone he could help.

Dr. Scott evaluated my condition efficiently and injections solved the problem. It was a very busy clinic. There were some inaccuracies in his clinic notes. I have not had bilateral knee replacements.
