I was in pain from earlier sports injuries, probably too much running, and I finally had to stop. I went to Dr. Wierks and he was very thorough,
very well qualified. The surgery was a great success.
My pain is gone.
The post treatment was excellent, the staff is very knowledgeable. Everyone is outstanding.
I tell everyone how positive the experience was.”
