"It took me a good part of the year thinking of what I could possibly say to you for what you have done for me. Thanks to our introduction by The Valley Hospital, I am alive today. Sacrificing neither life nor limb I have triumphed under your care. Can a value be put on life? Not when it's your own! You possess a wonderful gift for restoring life. I thank you deeply for your knowledge and concern." -J.W ("forever indebted")
"I was surprised when you said I didn't have to come back because I didn't feel as if I'd really thanked you the way I should. I thought everything went very well. I had minimal pain after my surgery and I'm recovering well. I think my balance and posture are already better. I keep looking at my foot and thinking, 'Wow, that's what it's supposed to look like'. So thank you." -M.V.D.

"When it comes to proficiency, ability, dexterity and expertise, this Association goes beyond the normal skill and becomes a fine art. I shall be having my fourth surgery on my right foot by Dr. Jr. and I can testify this surgeon's innate skill on a level of 1-10 is rated 16. And there is far more; Dr. Jr. is always congenial, polite and proper. He instinctively knows how to put a patient at ease and, although he is unaware of this, he exudes confidence. A part of this surgeon's persona is his sense of humor expressed just at the right time to interceed with the patient's tension. Believe me, if he can put this "Nervous Nellie" in a relaxed state he is capable to do it for others. His sense of timing is second to none. This appraisal would be remiss if his excellent staff were not mentioned. There is kindness, courtesy and understanding in abundance. I am incredibly blessed and fortunate to have been introduced to this Association by a relative." -J.R.

"I just want to say thank you & let you know I appreciate all you have done for me. I know I was a complicated case & you always took such wonderful care of me with your kindness & concern. I never felt like I was a bother to you or the girls & you always took the time to listen to me-that's a wonderful trait & not all doctors have it." R.N.
"You guys are the best! I am pleased with how my foot has recovered and completely healed." C.Z.
"In honor of National Doctor's Week, thank you for all you do to make a difference every day. Your patience with J.G. is so appreciated! Not only are you an awesome doctor, but an awesome person as well! Sincerely", R.D.

Dr. Jr., "Every day since I met you I am thankful to you. The thought, let alone the reality, of what my life would have been without your help is absolutely unbearable. Your smiles help, too. Having a highly competent physician with a pleasant demeanor are a comfort. A.W.
