Everything went well at the pre-operation meeting. The only thing I don’t remember being talked about was the CPM machine. I had already made a note to discuss this the morning of surgery as I was not clear what it was, but it just so happened I got a text from Kinex about coming out to set up the CPM machine in my home. I am a little shocked this was not covered in the meeting. It was a little unnerving since I was not expecting a text from them. I honestly thought it was a scam and did not respond back to them until the next day.

Dr. Sacks is very knowledgeable, attentive physician. He listened and explained clearly my knee condition, my therapeutic options, pro's and cons of each option. I could make an informed decision which I appreciate.

I came to Dr.Sacks after a very disappointing experience with another doctor. I thought my experience lacked professional communication, little did I know how much I was not told by the other doctor. Dr.Sacks and his staff spent the time to find out about me and my expectations from surgery. I am thankful for the experience with the other doctor because I think have found a much better option.
