D. Crane Testimonial
Dear Dr. Solmen,
I can only say that the greatest gift you gave me came when you went the extra mile to keep from fusing my ankle. The other doctors that examined my ankle wanted to do what was quick and easy, but because you wanted to do it right I walk three miles five days a week on the treadmill and two days a week I climb over 600 stairs on the stepper.
I have no pain and the ankle if fairly flexible. Thank you so much for your dedication.
D. Crane
P.S. I also want you to know how nice it is to walk to a podium in front of a large group and not have to worry about limping or standing for a long period of time.
L. Bennie Testimonial
Having lived and traveled all over the world working for the federal government, I've been cared for by various health care professionals. However, when I needed the best orthopaedic surgeon to correct the misaligned bones in both of my feet, I came back to my hometown and requested Dr. James Solmen as my surgeon. Without a doubt, Northeast Ohio is the most concentrated area of medical experts in America and locating the most sought after surgeon was easy.
Dr. Solmen has an incredible rapport with his patients and that care and concern are embraced by his entire staff of talented professionals. I immediately felt a sense of calm when I met Dr. Solmen for the initial consultation and the in-depth discussions we had about the surgery, the procedure, the recuperative time, the medications, and the steps (no pun intended) I would need to resume my active lifestyle.
My family told me that after the surgery, Dr. Solmen immediately came out to the waiting area, sat down and described (in detail) the operation showing the pre- and post-surgery x-rays of the bones in my feet and the success of the surgery.
Before surgery, I was so limited in the shoes that would accommodate my bunions, hammertoes, and toes bunching on top of each other. Since having my precision surgery, I have an unlimited choice in the shoes that I can wear.
With sincere gratitude, I whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Solmen and the Youngstown Orthopaedic Associates for anyone wanting the best care for themselves and loved ones.
With kind regards,
L. Bennie
