What Patients Say

Patricia B.

My last visit with Dr. Black went well--my husband and I had a very pleasant chat with him. He has a great sense of humor and I felt I was in good hands regarding my wrist fracture. You definitely have to take the initiative and ask lots of questions, which is not a bad thing. This was my first broken bone, so was not sure what to expect, but he answered all my questions perfectly.

Dr. Black gave me a consultation for tennis elbow that has been bothering me for months. He gave his honest opinion and offered to give me a steroid injection in the office, same day. It is feeling much better, 1 week later!
