    Dr. Tarity took his time to explain in detail why I was experiencing hip pain and gave me exercises to help with the pain from bursitis. I appreciated his patience with my questions and him allowing options on next steps. For my first visit I'm so happy it was with Dr. Tarity and should I ever need any kind of knee or hip surgery in the future he would be the one I want to do it and he's also the one I would recommend. Thank you Dr. Tarity, I left my appointment feeling encouraged and with a smile.
