    How was your appointment with Dr. Sketchler?

    Mar 15, 2023
    Dr Sketchler takes his time to talk to his patients and explain the best course of treatment. He is compassionate and very professional. I have been going to him for many, many years and have recommended him to several people who share the same opinion of him. I hope he doesn’t retire for a very long time. I can’t imagine having to see another doctor who I feel will never compare. His staff, particularly Neil who is his nurse practitioner, is also very knowledgeable and professional and shares the same personality traits. All of the staff I have spoken to or dealt with in his office have also been very professional and always helpful. I will continue to recommend this doctor and his staff to anyone who is need of an orthopedic physician. I have the utmost trust and faith in Dr. Sketchler and his staff. In these times when incompetence seems to be the norm, that is saying a lot and speaks volumes about this group.
