:) Click to report rating *  12/29/09 5 5 5 Dr. Decker is excellent. He immediately put me at ease and explained all of the options available to me for a condition related to my wrist. I felt very comfortable in his presence and confident in his ability to make the correct diagnosis. I give him the highest recommendation, and would return to his office without hesitation.

:) Click to report rating *  10/17/09 5 5 5 I started out with another hand specialist in my town regarding my problem. This doctor was very dismissive of me and took no time to even try to determine what the problem was. I had 2 visits with this doctor and all he said to me was "I wouldn't do surgery for that". So, someone at my office recommended Dr. Decker. I couldn't be more pleased with a doctor. Dr. Decker took the time to listen to me, he asked me questions, he allowed me to ask ask questions. He diagnosed my problem and I just had surgery a few weeks ago. I have already recommended Dr. Decker to a couple of people. Dr. Decker has it all, the bedside manner, the caring (he made me feel like I was his only patient!) and his skill as a doctor and surgeon. There is no one better to go to than Dr. Decker.

:) Click to report rating *  7/30/09 5 5 5 I have never been as comfortable going into surgery as I was with my recent wrist surgery with Dr. Decker. I would recommend Dr. Decker to my friends but it seems as if his reputation preceeds him. Dr. Decker's name is a known name in my area. The staff in the office are kind & professional. I had some scheduling problems which were taken care of quite promptly to my satisfaction. Dr. Decker's bedside manner and gentle touch are huge bonuses also.

:) Click to report rating *  8/27/08 5 4 5 My first experience with Dr. Decker was very positive. I typically look for indicators that validate my confidence in a doctor that will perform surgery on me. Dr. Decker displayed a high degree of professionalism and medical knowledge about my condition and the surgery, which fully corrected my condition know as "trigger finger". Dr. Decker seems to be an outstanding physician and only after non-surgical attempts failed to help my condition did he recommend surgery. Prior to the surgery, he visited me to ask how I was doing and to see if I had any final questions. He made all the right calls and I would highly recommend him to my relatives and friends.

Referral to occupational therapist very good too. Thank you for an overall pleasant experience.
