Review for Dr. Gerritsen
Dr. Dietrich reviewed my elderly father’s condition carefully, helped us understand what was causing the difficulties, and guided us in making the best choices in treatment options. He was kind, gentle, and treated my father with great respect. I am grateful for his competence and care.

Dr. Dean listened, reviewed my images, examined my ankle, and devised a plan! I finally feel like there is light at the end of this broken ankle tunnel!
