Patient Testimonials

I am confident that I made the best decision selecting Dr. Roger to perform my total knee replacement surgery. The care prior, during, and after the procedure, by he and his staff, was exemplary. I am now 3 months post-op and pleased with my progress. I have begun to return to my active lifestyle, including swimming, walking, and biking. Thank you!
