Dr. Hood was very personable and easy to talk to. I had been told I needed a knee replacement by another orthopedic surgeon and wanted a second opinion. Dr. Hood listened well and thought since I’d only had pain for 4 weeks in knee we could try alternative before something as drastic as knee replacement ! Thank you Dr. Hood for taking the time to listen and a willingness to explore alternatives to surgery! Also, for being thorough in the knee examination! I definitely rank you best as a doctor!
