Care philosophy

I believe in shared decision-making. Even if two patients have the same problem, what’s best for one might not be right for the other. When we agree on a care plan together, everyone feels confident moving forward.

He was great! Could have used more common words vs. Medical jargon that I had to look up afterwards to fully follow what was being said. Also felt like he wanted to move on. But net-net, his advice was helpful and I'm already on the road to recovery, so that's what matters!

Dr. Waller listened to me. My R hip has been hurting me for many years. I had an X-ray in Fall 2024 and was told everything was ok. But it wasn't. Dr. Waller suggested a cortisone shot and gave me exercises to do. It's too early to tell but I'm hopeful the shot works.
