All I had was a broken toe and didn’t think anything could be done for it but recommendations were therapy and we’ll wait a little longer to see if more X-rays are needed.
All info was good

Dr Crawford was amazing in the explanations of what was being done, the thoroughness of her exam, and care she provided. I would highly recommend using her again and for anybody else that would have medical issues with their knees. I feel Dr. Crawford provided care that other doctors do not anymore.

Wow! This was my first time seeing Dr. Crawford and I am incredibly impressed. She listened to every word I had to say about my knee problem. She gave my knee a thorough exam and then explained all my options to me. I decided on the most aggressive option and Dr. Crawford took care of my knee in a single visit. She explained every step of the procedure as she performed it and kept me comfortable throughout. I am offering a 5-star rating only because I can’t give 6. Highly recommend!

Wow! This was my first time seeing Dr. Crawford and I am incredibly impressed. She listened to every word I had to say about my knee problem. See then gave my knee a thorough exam. After that she explained every option I had moving forward. I decided on the most aggressive option and Dr. Crawford treated my knee immediately. As she was performing the procedure, she explained every step along the way. I would give Dr. Crawford a 5-star rating only because I can’t give her 6! Highly recommended.
