The letters shared personal experiences and stories highlighting the exemplary work put forth by the physicians. Both Drs. Ducey and Femino were cited. A doctor of general orthopaedics with an emphasis on sports medicine, Dr. Ducey practices medicine with both skill and compassion—traits which are valued by his patients. “During my initial consult with Dr. Ducey I understood why friends and co-workers had confidence in recommending him,” wrote a former patient. “I appreciate not only his skills as a doctor and surgeon, but the care and concern that he and his staff showed for me in my time of need.” Dr. Femino is a doctor of general orthopedics with an emphasis on adult reconstructive surgery and joint replacement.
