“Dr. Braaksma displayed the confidence necessary to make me feel at ease from our first meeting. It is evident that he knew what he was doing and that he was going to do the very best thing for my situation. The before and after X-rays speak for themselves; my ankle went from clearly being out of line and broken, to being mended and having a perfect line between the knuckle and joint from one end to the other if it were a classic car you call to say it now has clean lines. He has been kind and understanding throughout this process. He has thoroughly answered all of my questions in great depth and even drew illustrations to help me understand his explanations. I felt very well cared for and in excellent and capable hands with Dr. Braaksma.”
