Patient Reviews
Aug 10, 2024
Dr Patterson is hands down the best doctor in town. I took my mother to Dr. Hanson before him, but he told me Dr. Patterson was going to be able to preform a better job as my mom had a significant hand fracture. From day one, Dr. Patterson and his team fulfilled our expectations. What a pleasant team to work with. He even opened his schedule today Friday to squeeze in my mom and get her hand fixed. We will be forever grateful that he cared and helped her. I would recommend Dr. Patterson 100% to any of my friends or family members if they are ever in need. Keep it up Dr. Patterson, way to show you truly love what you do.
