Dr. Widener is the best! He fixed one shoulder and is now fixing the other one. He listens and thinks about the problem and the best way to handle it. I am not just another person waiting in a room for him to rush in and out.

Dr. Weidener is beyond amazing! I truly can’t say enough. He was always very precessional, kind and caring. I had 2 knee replacements at the age of 46 and 47. He has given me my left back. Maggie his NP is exceptional too. Actually everyone that I came in contact with always made me feel important. I highly recommend his group.

Dr Widener was just super. This was my second visit. The first was great. We discussed in detail my pain and details around it. He outlined a course of action and let me choose how aggressive a plan we would implement. This visit he suggested we move to second stage of treatment for my knee. After three days my pain is all but gone. I would highly recommend him and the practice.

Dr. Widener is an amazing doctor and I trust his decisions completely. I have severe knee pain and he was able to diagnose and find the best solutions for my issue. I appreciate that he talks to the patient in terms that we can understand and takes time to answer all my questions without feeling rushed. I would definitely recommend him.
