I was extremely scared at first that my daughter was diagnosed with scoliosis and her percentage was at a 24. And Dr. Clemens, he was like, he was really easy going and explaining to us the procedures and the steps that need to be taken so that we can avoid surgery like at all costs. And as a mom, it's like definitely scary type of language. But all in all, I mean, he heard my daughter, he heard me, and he made sure we had the information we needed so that we weren't really scared. And now, after his advice and his strong direction, her percentage is down to [Date] . So I call a win-a-win. Dr. Clemens definitely gave us a win. Thank you.

Dr. Clements was extremely comforting with my son and me. He never raised his voice. He spoke appropriately. Dr. Clements explained my son's medical situation in a clear and precise manner then asked if I had any questions! I was so elated he heard me and my concerns. My son is adopted and has a complicated medical history. Dr. Clements was very understanding and even showed me the Xrays as he discussed my son's spinal isues. Initially I was afraid he wouldn't see us because the appt was for 11:30 am and my son needed a change of clothing immediately. When I called the office the staff were genuinely caring and concerned. All is well when you go to Dr. Clements. Excellent experience. Thank you
