“I just moved to Winston Salem a month ago, I joined Planet Fitness and spoke to a gentleman at the gym, that has a knee issue. I asked him if he knows a good orthopedic knee doctor, this gentleman highly recommended Dr. Waterman. A couple of days later, I was playing pickleball with a group of people and we were talking about knees, I asked of any recommendations on an orthopedic, one of the ladies had knee surgery from Dr. Waterman and highly recommended him to me. I was sold on the 2 people that recommended him to me, so i made myself an appointment and I was very satisfied with Dr. Waterman visit.” – Anonymous
