Very nice and informative, was not negative about my use of acupuncture to treat ailments. Made me feel much better about my physical issues (they aren't all in my head!) And was not just pushing medications, sat and discussed ways to slow the progression of my issues.

I have nothing but good things to say about doctor Deans and his staff
-
Jul 09, 2026
Dr Deans is the BEST! He is willing to take on the knee cases that some ortho surgeons would refuse to even consider taking on. Dr Deans has given me back the use of my right leg by correcting a serious knee problem. He is going to replace my left knee replacement as it has caused me serious problems. Hopefully, by the end if the year I will have two useable knees, rather than useless ones. I will finally be able to walk and train my dog, a 140 lb Newfoundland.

Dr Dean when he is giving the shot in my knees, he talks during the whole time giving me the shots, like saying, freezing, going in, half way, 3/4 and done. It's so much more comfortable in getting the shots, knowing it's almost done.

Both Dr Dean and resident, Dr Trevor, were extremely personable and yet clinically competent. They answered all questions I had and genuinely seemed interested in my case, although they probably see thousands with the same cases daily.
