I don't remember who first told me about Dr. Teeter but I quite literally thank the stars above that it happened. It's not often one falls into a perfect fit but this is one for sure. Surgeons are a different breed of cat for sure and most surgeons have no bedside manner to speak of, after all, they cut for a living...Dr. Teeter takes all of the time you need, listens, and explains things in an easy to understand manner. I really felt like we were game planning together. MRIs, X-Rays, pain, time to recover, and physical therapy are all very important when making the decision to go under the knife. Parts wear out and we've got to get some parts replaced or we'll get old. I'm not getting old any time soon so they'd better keep my seat warm up there.
