09/11/19
The Dr. was 40 minutes behind schedule.
09/06/19
Dr. Amor knows his stuff. He is a little reserved, so I had to ask questions and drive the conversation, but that's ok. I'd much rather that than dealing with some of the obnoxious, arrogant ortho docs of my past. He is my go to from now on and would 100% refer anyone to him.
09/06/19
Already have. I've endorsed him on social media.
09/02/19
Wasn't concerned about my opinions or what I thought. Was like I was an object on the conveyor belt and he was ready to go to the next item on the belt.
08/26/19
He only addressed the bone which is healed, BUT never addressed the muscles or cartilage at all whatsoever which is why I'm still in pain. He never offered a CT scan to see the damaged muscles and cartilage. In other words; you are on your own girl.
