    Dr O’Neil was extremely compassionate and professional in caring and explaining to my almost 97 year old father and myself (his daughter) about the X-ray results of his knee and his options for two injections he was able to give him to relieve and help heal his knee pain. One of the best doctors we have ever seen. Highly recommend him.

    As a former college athlete I've been to my share of orthopedic surgeons. After one visit with Dr. Brien I knew that this was the place for me to receive treatment for latest knee injury. As a working professional being on time for appointments is necessary- not only was I seen on time, the staff has also even took me before my scheduled time when I arrived early for an appointment. Dr O'Brien was efficient and worked flawlessly with Brenda and Anita to get me scheduled for surgery and then worked hard with my insurance to get everything approved. I have a choice in who I select for my orthopedic needs and I choose to drive from Richmond to seek care from Dr O'Brien and his staff. Thank you for taking care of me!
