How was your appointment with Dr. O'Brien?
Dr. O'Brien is the BEST! He did a bilateral elbow, humerus, ulnar, and radius repair. He allowed my son to use both arms again and regain 95 percent usage. Other surgeons wanted to amputat and gave us very little hope on his ability to use his arms again. However, Dr. O'Brien not only repaired both arms but gave him a quality of life. He is able to use his arms without having to take pain medications and completed physical therapy and can resume most of the things he did prior to this accident. WE CANNOT THANK DR. O'BRIEN ENOUGH FOR BEING THE BEST DOCTOR for our son. It has been seven years and he is still doing great. Much gratitude.
