I live in Lafayette and was referred to Dr. Collins. I was anxious to travel from Lafayette to Lake Charles, but after speaking with several Lafayette physicians, I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Collins. At my first appointment I met Mark Hebert, Dr. Collins’ PA, and Devin, Dr. Collins’ nurse, and was very impressed. Then I met Dr. Collins and after only two minutes I knew he was the man to do my surgery on my arm. He performed the surgery on December 31, 2015 and I have had practically no pain since then. At my two week post-op Dr. Collins said everything looked great and sent me to physical therapy. The Physical Therapist was very impressed by how well my arm was healing. I was the head coach at the Ragin’ Cajun Boxing Club in Lafayette and was not able to do much work with the kids. In boxing a left jab is one of the most, if not the most, important punches in boxing. The jab set everything up for the right and left hook. I am almost certain that when Dr. Collins releases me I will be even better than before! Thank you, Dr. Collins!
