” I had a phenomenal appointment with Dr. Telfer today. He went over all my x-rays and MRIs in detail with me. Gave me a cortisone shot in the shoulder, and advised of exercises and movements to help with my multiple tears. Have another appointment in a month. He was by far the best Dr. I have been involved with ever (and that’s been A LOT of doctors over the years). Knowledgeable, caring, up front, and funny. I felt like I was being taken care of by the best. Thank you!”
