Dr Munns has been very polite, and has wonderful "bed-side" manners. Doctor is always interested in listening to my concerns, taking time to ask and evaluate problems presented to him. Doctor never rushes through or cuts off a discussion early so the next appointment can be gotten to, always discussing until the problem is put to the next step.

Dr. Munns – Exceptional Orthopedic Care! I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Munns and the outstanding care we received under their expertise. From the very first consultation in the ER (every parents worse nightmare not being able to help their child when they're hurt) it was clear that I was in the hands of a true professional—someone who not only has an exceptional depth of knowledge orthapedics but also genuinely cares about their patients. Dr. Munns took the time to carefully explain and walk us through every step of the treatment and surgical process. He made what could have been a very stressful experience feel manageable, and even empowering. Their calm, confident demeanor and compassionate approach helped ease my anxiety and gave me complete trust in their abilities. The entire staff, from the front desk to the casting techs (shout out to Perry & Al) mirrored Dr. Munns professionalism and warmth. It's rare to find a doctor who blends top-tier medical skill with such genuine kindness, and I’m incredibly grateful to have found that in Dr. Munns. Thank you for not only helping our son during this journey but for helping us by expressing kindness and compassion. That part isn't just apart of the job, it's apart of the amazing humans you all are! If you're looking for an orthopedic surgeon who is not only highly skilled but also deeply committed to patient care, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Munns. They are truly one of the best in the field!

I received my cortisone injection from Dr. Munn's assistant. She was very caring and concerned, as well as providing quick, caring, compassionate care. She performed a painless injection to calm down my injured risk. She also discussed the possibility of future surgery and the risks of using my injection if the pain comes back. Very, very pleased with the care I've received from ORA!

Dr. Munns was nice as usual. I felt & I believe he felt this appointment was unnecessary. It was the Dr. I saw 3-4 weeks ago at the Walk In clinic who told me to make this appointment if the shot she had given me wasn’t helping much, so I did as she asked me to do . He did ask me about a drug I could take, but I was allergic to that also. He told me about a gel to use, but my cardiologist asked me not to use that either. I am a bit upset that my insurance & I are paying for this unnecessary appointment. Thank you

I scheduled my appointment the same week as I called! I fell and have had problems with my wrist for nearly two months. Dr. Munns was very friendly and gave me options for treatment including meds, cortisone injection and surgery if meds and injection failed to fix the soreness. I was referred to ORA and brought my records, X-rays, and ultrasound results. Forty minutes after I arrived to check in, I walked out after a cortisone injection and instructions.I am blown away at how experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly Dr. Munn is.
