I highly recommend OAK Orthopedics. Thank you for helping me today!”

“My 1st office visit with Dr. Corcoran. He took time to explain what condition my left shoulder is in and what treatment options are available. I came to get a cortisone injection but left knowing where I stand in regards to my condition — not rushed, and the doctor genuinely interested in providing me the best care possible. Met with P.A. David as well and he also took time to explain what to expect in the future with the various treatment options. I continue to be impressed by OAK Orthopedics. Would be comfortable recommending Oak to family and friends.”

“My total left knee replacement on July 12th was better than the right. Knee flexed to 90 degrees. On July 17th I gave up the walker as it was hard on my back. Gave up the cane a week latter and the motion machine as was at 110 degrees. Stopped drugs on July 14th and only took acetaminophen once in a while when back and leg were hurting, but mostly what I call minimal pain mostly when getting up and down. Its six weeks in and still doing some physical therapy twice a week and doing exercise at home. My knee is at 120 Degrees. This time the hospital stay was so much better from surgery to leaving the next day. I stayed on the IV and catheter until the following morning which allowed me to sleep better with out having to get up every hour.”
– Susan B.
