Additional Patient Feedback

“This was my 1st time visiting IBJI and the experience was very pleasant. From the front desk greeting, the nurse’s, Dr’s assistant and Dr. Schwartz himself, all friendly and very professional. I went in thinking I was going to need a knee replacement but after consulting with the doctors we decided to try some other options first which are working exceptional well. Thank you IBJI.”
