Customer Reviews

Dr. Carr (and his entire staff) are absolutely amazing. My mother had complete knee replacement surgery performed by Dr. Carr and the entire staff went above and beyond to work with her insurance to get it all covered, he educated both my mom and myself regarding what to expect before and after surgery, and the entire process was about as easy and straight-forward as a major surgery can get. I still am shocked that my mom was able to come home with us the same day after surgery. That in and of itself shows how talented and caring he and his staff are. I couldn’t have chosen anyone better to care for my mother; period. Can’t thank them enough.

Great doctor and staff. I have had 2 Carpal Tunnel surgeries, one on each hand. I severed by Bicep Tendon and had it repaired and I just had my Right Shoulder operated on. All 4 surgeries went well and I have had a full recovery from each one of them. I would not want any other orthopedic surgeon to operate on me. I have known Dr. Carr since the 1970’s, he is a quality person and surgeon.

So, I know this is my second review for Dr. Carr. Besides the fact that I think he hung the moon- this is the SECOND time he’s fixed a running injury for me. He is proactive and makes decisions to solve the problem. His staff is INCREDIBLE…..speaking of Caleb and others….when I was apprehensive about doing a new technique for my knee…they kept promoting the solution to me which I finally tried and it works so well!!!!
If you are an athlete and your career is stalled out due to injury- give Dr. Carr a try! He was a professional athlete himself and knows what that feels like. He cares about his patients and wants to get them back on the road to recovery. I cannot say enough good things. After having been to several other doctors who just want to send you to PT and get their referral fee- Dr. Carr instead attacks the problem with action AND gives you exercises you can do at home. Don’t wait and let your injury get worse- go see him! Make the appointment!
