Dr Sanders is a wonderful physician! He is patient, caring and highly knowledgeable. Would highly recommend him to anyone!
Been seeing Dr. Sanders for a bunch of ailments for a long time. He always is professional, prompt, no nonsense, informative, and friendly. Would recommend highly.
Dr. Sanders is a phenomal doctor plain and simple. He's extremely knowledgeable, has a fantastic bedside manner and is excellent at describing his diagnosis and presenting the options for treatment. When I leave an appointment with him I have a firm grasp on my issue, as well as timeline and options for treatment. I can't say enough great things about him.
Dr. Sanders was very personable and thorough. He directly involved my teenage daughter in how to recover and get back to playing. Would absolutely recommend him!
The registration works great, waiting time ok (1h wait time with appointment) The doctor and the nurse were great. I would appreciate having a prescription paper for the medication for the pain. The paper I got was not sufficient.
Dr Sanders and his team are always top notch!!
