Always a pleasure to go to the ROC. Dr. Boyden as usual got me sorted out and moving forward. Make no mistake about this being just a check-up type of visit, Dr. Boyden has replaced one knee after five other surgeries (by other Doctors in California) and has seen the insides of the other knee while doing a repair. I trust the ROC with my life. There are many good doctors in this area but without a doubt I always return to ROC as their doctors are always on their game!

Dr. Boyden is a fantastic doctor. He takes the time to listen to me. He did my husband's total knee replacement, and since he did such a great job, I decided to have him as my doctor I highly recommend him.
