Fantastic experience with Dr. and staff

Dr. Avena and PA Cervantes are a great team. They are friendly, professional and very informative with all aspects of my condition. I couldn't be more please with the outcome of my two procedures. I also want to sing the praises for Thoa Thai of the Therapy Specialists of Kaweah. She did amazing work during my PT recovery. Thanks again to all involved.
