He did a good job fixing my painfully knee. Right after surgery I was given a pain blocker & it was very helpful.

I was glad to drive to West Arbor instead of the Ypsilanti complex as I live in Western Washtenaw co.

Aug 22, 2024
The issue at hand was not addressed. Instead I was referred to another doctor. It was not my choice or decision to pick this particular doctor in the first place and I was told I couldn’t choose another one. Complete waste of my time. I left frustrated and confused with no answers to my issues!

I learned alot about the knee process. The manual knee was a great tool to use to get an ideal of what your knee will look like after surgery. Dr. Tefler was not pushy, but very knowledge. He appeared a little shy initially, but I appreciated his ability to open up more as I asked more and more questions.

I liked the fact that he was straight forward about the issues I'm having.

I intend to hold on to him

May 2, 2024
I feel like because he didn't see anything on the x-ray (besides the "bump") meant that there wasn't a problem that PT couldn't fix.

Just wish the arrival time would be adjusted when a patient completes the digital sign in.

cared about me.

Feb 14, 2024
Dr. Telefer never looks me in the eye... he speaks at me looking away or with his eyes closed. Not sure why that is, but I like him as my Ortho Surgeon so I tolerate it.
