Dr Fletcher and PA Joe Krout are top notch. On our initial visit I felt an almost instant connection, deep and personal, as if Dr Fletcher were a blood relative.I am a physician myself and I know, after many years of practice, what it takes to be committed to serving each and every one of the many people who come for help. It is impossible without a total commitment and dedication to this calling. At the risk of overdoing it, I will conclude by sharing the joy of now being able to walk on my own two feet after more than 2 years of severe hip pain and being incapacitated.My entire family is medical including my wife who is now a retired nurse and I had a number of recommendations of superb surgeons in and around NYC. I have no regrets as at every level I was treated with the utmost professionalism.Thank you, Dr Fletcher and PA Joe Kraut for giving me a new hip and a new lease on life ! God bless you and your entire staff.M Galante, MD
