Dr. Price performs magic! He gave excellent attention to my son's broken wrist snowboarding and made minor corrections to another Dr's cast that improved the healing to perfection. He always gave us as much time as needed, answered all our questions, and had an in-office, instant X-ray machine that emmitted 1/5 the normal radiation. He genuinely cared and my 11 year was just as comfortable. I could offer a higher recommendation.

Report
If I could give this doctor less than 1 star I would. I rarely post on yelp, but felt I should make everyone aware of this. I went to this doctor with severe ankle pain. I thought it was a severe sprain. He x-rayed it, and said it was ok, and just a mild sprain, and sent me to a physio. He told me I could keep running on it etc, and then proceeded to charge me for an aircast. I went to the physio who noticed me limping severely and said there is no way I should be even putting pressure on it. I went to another doctor who xrayed me, and found I had actually broken my ankle and torn three ligaments
