Dr. Patterson was the fourth (!) surgeon I visited with a replaced total knee that had been painful and tender since it had been replaced eighteen months ago. This wonderful doctor took the time to review xrays and then watched the way I was walking. Believe it or not, I walked out of the appointment in less pain, and it has been steadily improving since he told me how to change the poor way I had been walking. He also recommended me to physical therapy. I have relief from pain and peace of mind that there really is nothing wrong with my knee replacement, just the way I was walking on it. Words can't describe the quality of life he returned to me. I thank God for putting me in the hands of this exceptionally wise surgeon.
