Dr. Fester took the time to discuss the problem I am having and answered all my questions.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/13/2024
I was seen quickly and treated with respect. Dr Fester listened to my concerns and ensured I understood the issue completely. What could have been better; I checked in online with mychart a few days prior to the appointment. I updated my insurance information, yet when I checked in I was told the systems don't "connect" so I had to again provide insurance information. If I spend time checking in online the systems should update. It makes me not want to check in online for future visits.

Dr. Fester did a great job of addressing our concerns and questions. Though we had to wait for a while until he got through other patience, it was worth the wait, and he still didn't make us feel rushed to get through our questions.

I always recommend Premier orthopedics too everyone I know !

I explained that I would not be seeking surgical options at this time, maybe a year down stream based upon similar prior historical experience. Just the same he ordered MRI for soft tissue, maybe okay, however treatment should consider that the patient is not seeking a surgical option. In this regard he seemed tone deaf.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/30/2023
I really appreciated that surgery was NOT the option that this surgeon recommended.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/25/2023
