Great job!

I recently had a consultation with Dr. Matthew Austin regarding a possible knee replacement. After carefully reviewing my x-rays and MRI, he determined that I did not need knee replacement surgery at this time. I truly appreciated his honesty and conservative approach. Rather than recommending surgery unnecessarily, he took the time to explain my condition clearly and discuss alternative options. I felt heard, respected, and confident in his assessment. It is reassuring to find a surgeon who prioritizes the patient’s best interest over performing a procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Matthew Austin to anyone seeking an honest, knowledgeable and caring orthopedic evaluation.
