“This was the second shoulder replacement I had done by Dr. Tocks. I would not have returned to your practice to have the left shoulder surgery if I had not been very pleased and satisfied with the entire process of the right shoulder surgery two years ago, the follow-up visits and PT done by OAL and all the staff. For both surgeries, everyone was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful in the surgery process, follow-up visits, and PT with the Willow Street office therapists. From a repeat patient who knows your practice, everyone does a great job.”
