Patient Reviews

The following are reviews from patients of Dr. Asherman.

“I had been suffering with chronic ankle pain for almost a year. Other providers sent me to PT, which, in the end, made everything worse. Dr. Asherman looked at my ankle and knew something more serious was wrong. He explained his diagnosis and made a plan for treatment with me that worked well with other factors in my life. Dr. Asherman is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I’m endlessly grateful for his help.”

“I’ve met with three surgeons over the years, and Dr. Asherman was the first not to assume surgery was the simple, first, and only route to recovery. Anything could happen, but his route began more cautiously than other doctors, which was much appreciated.”
