Entire staff is very professional. I had my first knee replacement performed by Dr. Achecar. He did such an outstanding job when I needed my other knee replaced there was no doubt who would perform the surgery.

I just love Dr Achecar. He is a sweet kind man. I have so much anxiety when I come in and he calms me down and gets me thru my shot. He is wonderful.
