“Dr. Garten rocks! Never had a torn muscle before and hope I never do again…an unexpected tennis injury hit me hard and I needed a quick diagnosis and recovery plan. Dr. Garten arranged to see me the day after my injury, zeroed in on my injury and gave me the bad news but also gave me a recovery plan that would have me back in action quickly.”
-Ken G.
“Dr Garten is great. It was my first time getting seen for long standing shoulder injuries. I’ve been to many doctors for various sports injuries and he is easily among the best sports medicine doctors I’ve seen. He did a thorough evaluation and explained everything in detail. Would highly recommend him to anyone”
- Eric B.
“Dr. Garten is the best. I had been dealing with hip pain for over a year and had been misdiagnosed by other doctors. He was able to ascertain quite quickly that I had a labral tear. Since our visit, I have had surgery. I am back to my normal activities and so grateful to Dr. Garten’s diagnosis. ”
