Dr. Crespo has been amazing since my emergency surgery (ankle) on […] - I was lucky that he happened to be on call that day. The surgery was complicated and he "fixed me", and 6 months later, I am able to do all activities again. Throughout my post-op visits, he took the time to explain my progress, what he was seeing, and encouraged me to continue with PT and my home exercises. I am so grateful to Dr. Crespo and his team.
