Dr Denard inspires confidence. I know I'm being cared for by a highly qualified and renowned surgeon. He explains procedures well and has excellent listening and empathy skills. This will be my 2nd shoulder surgery with him.

Review for Dr. Denard

Always listens to me and explains everything in terms that are totally understandable. Never feel rushed or talked down to with Dr. Huth.

Review for Dr. Chamberland

she was dismissive of my questions and pains before she discharged me. I had to be rushed to the hospital again a week later after multiple calls to her with my concerns where she again DISMISSED my pain. I insisted on another doctor and refused her service until I got one who was much more...
