Patient Testimonial
"Dr. Jarit and his staff are some of the most caring and professional individuals I’ve come across in the medical field. I would never go to anyone else. My daughter tore her ACL playing soccer and they got us right in and made my daughter so comfortable in what was a very traumatic situation. From the first visit to the last follow up we received the best care from Dr Jarit and his entire staff. One year and two weeks after tearing her ACL, my daughter tore the MCL and ACL in her other knee!! On the drive home, she actually said, “Well, at least we get to see Dr. Jarit again...” I will say I’ve seen a lot of scars from athletes who have had the same surgery and my daughter’s knees both look clean neat and identical! Top notch surgeon - I highly recommend Dr Jarit."
