Went to Dr Schupp yesterday concerning an injured knee. He was knowledgeable and forthright. Treated us well and professionally, and prescribed the best treatment. Liked his knowledge, interest, and expertise. Good doctor.

Review for Dr. Schupp

He was the fourth doctor I saw, but the only one who offered a solution that was the least invasive yet the most effective.His expertise, confidence, and compassion gave me hope when I was losing...
