Good experience.
Drs. Mooar & [...] and their staff are the BEST professional, I have EVER been treated by. They should be the standard that all other offices are measured by.
The provider was very nice and helpful. The nurse was very friendly & nice.
Looking forward to my next visit.

Very good experience.
Experience is always good with Dr. Mooar and other staff members. He has done procedure on both of my knees. No problem. [...]
My experience with Dr. Mooar has been exemplary from the first meeting on. He performed an exemplary hip replacement a dozen or more years ago and it's still working fine. He takes the time to listen, explain, suggest, and recommend solutions. He has a wonderful knack for putting patients at ease. Good doctor; good man.
Very impressed with Dr Mooar patience and and information he provides me about my knee shows that he cares.. enjoying my new experience at Temple Hospital [...]. Thanks again for caring
