Dr. Jeff Peretz and his team have been awesome! They are professional, friendly and attentive. Dr. Peretz spent a lot of time with us during the initial consultation for a total knee replacement and was very thorough in detailing his pre op and post op instructions! The surgery went exactly as planned and so did the recovery. Amazing improvement in range of motion and mobility. His team was supportive and responsive to phone calls.
