How likely are you to recommend Dr. Alden?
I went to him for a knee issue. He read my MRI on my knee and said he didn't agree with the other doctor as I had arthritis and another issue. He said we can do the gel shot and see if that helps in not , then surgery. He was not afraid to disagree with another. Now I am going to seek his advice on my shoulder.
