    Dr. Selby and his team are TOP NOTCH! He diagnosed my issue on my Initial visit In February 2024 within 5 minutes that another orthopedic surgeon and his PA couldn't figure out in 5 months. He had to do a stage 2 hip revision surgery to correct what had been done by the other orthopedic surgeon in December 2022. After 2 surgeries, I am happy to report I am walking again after 16 months of lying in the bed in EXCRUCIATING PAIN!

      My only issue was when my appointment was over there were no instructions about where to go to make my next appointment. Everyone just left the room and I was on my own. There was no communication between the doctor and the front desk about my next appt even though the doctor said he'd see me for my next appt in 2 months.
