I went in for a consult on having both hips replaced because both were bone to bone. Dr. Saldanha was gracious, respectful of my concerns, answered every question and had a great deal of empathy and encouragement for the quality of life change ahead for me. Never did I feel rushed, or was I ever made to feel anything less than the whole staff was there to support my surgery needs and a positive outcome! After the surgery and follow up appointment, the care continued to be first rate and the expectations Dr. Saldanha set for post surgery were spot on in every aspect.
Fine.
Always great! Extremely professional and caring. One of the best doctors I’ve ever seen.
