“Instills confidence”
My experience with this Dr. was great. I was referred by my PCP as I was on a walker and intense pain in my right knee. Dr. Desman gave me a shot in my knee and within a few days, I could walk with a limp. He advised me that a total knee replacement was in order because I had severe arthritis in my knee together with a torn meniscus. I accepted his advise and we proceeded. I was thrilled to go to their surgery center where I received excellent care.
