Reviews/Rating
“Dr. Albrecht is a very knowledgeable orthopedic surgeon that will take time to explain options and work with you to create a treatment plan.“
— Thomas S
“Dr. Albrecht, took his time explaining to me about my injured knee and what he was going to do in surgery. When I arrived to St David’s South to the end when I was discharged everyone was so attentive, caring and Dr. Albrecht checked up on me in between surgeries to make sure I had any questions before my surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Albrecht! Thank you, Dr. ALBRECHT!“
