Brett is a professional who's a knowledgable team member in treating orthopaedics patients. He was involved in my surgery so there was a sense of continuity in pre-op and post-op visits and care. He spent time examining my foot, reading ex-rays, answering questions and providing info requested at my six week post-op exam. I am extremely happy with Dr. [last name]'s surgical skills as well as his competent team, of which Brett Wassink is highly regarded.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
