    I really like him. He really explains everything to you. He makes sure you understand what you need to do to help your healing process. He also explains how and why the bandages/dressings are put on your leg. I would highly recommend him to anyone who was in my shoes.

    Care provider was not the doctor listed; I would not want my negative comments to reflect on him.
