What Patients Are Saying

Dr. Below and staff are very professional and I feel confident in their care.

Dr. Below explained everything in plain language, and was very kind to me. He remarked he likes to treat his patients the way he would like to be treated. This is, quite frankly and somewhat regrettably, a trait I’ve not seen in most surgeons today. Great doctor, thank you!

Doctor Steven Below was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Such a wonderful person that takes his job seriously.

This was one of the best experiences we have ever had! Dr. Below is so good at explaining detail about my son’s injury and how to keep it health and free from infection. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Below to all my family and friends!

Great bedside manner, easy to talk with. Explained things in a very simple way.
