Leg injury

Attentive doctor. The other doctor did not even look at me, did not take scans and immediately suggested collagen (most likely his own). This doctor sent me for x-rays, explained in detail the appropriate treatment. Thank you to him.

Hip injury in a child

Have been to him two or three times, and last time brought my four year old daughter in after a fall that caused her to have gait problems. The doctor explained everything in detail, was very attentive and sensitive. Such a kind, humble man. May God bless him.

orthopedic examination

This doctor from Chekirge Hospital examined my wife, explained every step, and was patient and friendly. His attitude was reminiscent of a private clinic rather than a public hospital. Thank you for his professionalism and warmth.
