"Dr. Lopez is a highly-skilled, professional, compassionate, down-to-earth surgeon who performed a (partial) knee replacement after a year+ long journey. We tried ALL conservative approaches, but the pain became unbearable. Every step of the way he listened to me and my concerns. He answered any and all questions I had. He and his staff were very responsive to every message I left...and there were plenty! I would highly recommend this surgeon & his fabulous office staff. A special shout out to his well-oiled machine of a team, who encouraged me along even on the toughest days - Gail, Tricia, Sarah, Anna, Sarah, Nate & Paola. I couldn't have done it without you."
