Testimonial

I was referred to Dr. Marcos by my trainer at the time and after the first consultation I clearly realized that it had been an excellent decision. I am eternally grateful to Dr. Marcos, to the whole team and especially to Isabel Eufrásio for all the work she did, for all her availability and thoughtfulness throughout the process. The operation went very well and the follow-up during recovery was incredible, all of which culminated in my great recovery, which gave me the chance to go back to doing what I love most in life, playing soccer. I would strongly advise anyone who wants to have an impeccable knee to go to Dr. Marcos, without a doubt the best orthopedist I have ever met!
