"Dr. King performed surgery in November of 2011 on my compound fractured wrist (looked like corn flakes on the X-rays). Rather than a plate or a cast he put all back together and stabilized the wrist with an external fixator. Now, 2023, the wrist experiences no arthritic pain and functions as well as the wrist which was not broken. I am 76 years old. A very long delayed and heart felt "Thank you Dr. King!!""

"The incompetence he demonstrated on my wife’s routine hip surgery has left her with a permanent disability. She experienced excessive blood loss and a cut nerve resulting in a drip foot condition. Less than one year after King ‘s attempted repair my wife was required to endure a second surgery. All, yes all, the hardware King placed in her hip was replaced correctly and repositioned by Dr Daniel Oaks, Head of Orthopaedic Surgery, USC Keck Hospital, referred to as “The Fixer”. DON’ T GO TO KING. The quack could scar you for life as he did my wife. Had King not strung us along with his stalling tactics exhausting time to take legal action against him and betray our trust before we realized what he was doing we would have sued him back to the Army. Do I sound upset? You bet I am. I’m thankful now we don’t live in the same state as King. Better for us all. "
