Dr. Qatu listened to my concerns and patiently responded to my questions. Appeared to be genuinely responsive and concerned regarding my heath needs... especially the boot being big and causing skin problems on my foot. I appreciate his recommendations of a smaller size boot for the healing process and continued fracture healing. Doing better after just 2-days. Thanks.
