Mack recently had an unfortunate bike crash after he returned from Europe. He collided with a deer that was on the bike path. He was pretty scraped up after the crash and had broken his thumb. Luckily he was otherwise OK. Dr. Joseph and Annie put the thumb back together again.

Heal up fast, Mack!

Dr. Dorf was gifted this "handmade" clock yesterday from a patient. The clock hands are the patient's removed fusion hardware. The clock gave everyone in clinic a big smile!
