    This was to arrange for surgery. So I have not had it yet. If it goes well I would recommend this team. If it doesn't go well I don't know what I would recommend.

    I was very happy with Dr. Kevin Bowman. He was very polite, professional, knowledgeable, patient and accommodating. He did everything he could to get me an appointment even though he was fully booked. He listened to all my questions and concerns and answered them thoroughly while he explained to me the aspects of my injury and further treatment plans. It was a very pleasant visit and I rate it a 10 out of 10.

    I'm so glad that Dr Bowman is here on-island. He asks a lot of questions and really listens to my answers! He's not typing into a computer while he listens to answers (I know computer input must get done, but it is nice to have face to face comunication!). And very important; he had lots of useful info and advice.

    Dr. Bowman was terrific. He's knowledgeable, thoughtful and patient friendly. He understands athletes and people who are committed to getting better.

    Dr Bowman is always very careful to be sure he answers all my questions and give me options in terms of treatment. During this visit he very graciously explained the history of the devices that have been used and explained why he chooses the one he does. I was concerned I had taken up too much of his time but he never once rushed me to conclude.
