Richard Michelin, DO

Dr. Richard Michelin was spot on with his assessments of my broken wrist.

I fell changing my air filters and fractured both bones in my Right Lower Leg. Im a former Level 1 Trauma Nurse from the University of Michigan and knew right away the leg was broken in a few places. By luck, MD Michelin was on call that day when I went to the hospital and reconstructed me with two necessary surgeries. Its been twelve weeks and I will be walking again soon. His skill and hard work with therapy provided the outcome. I cant thank him enough for helping me get back to my beautiful life. Thank you MD Michelin, you make a difference.

On October 25th I suffered a right radial head fracture. I know, I know, say it in English right! Well I fractured my right elbow. This is my dominant arm. Fracturing this part of my arm restricted me from being able to move or rotate my hand. If you wouldve asked me for a high five or a down low, it just was not possible. My arm was locked in an L position. I was eventually referred to Dr. Michelin. He was so pleasant to meet with. He explained all of the ins and outs of what surgery could or would bring for me. He provided me all my options and I chose surgery of course. Surgery went so smooth, no mishaps before or after. I have now completed 8 weeks of therapy and needless to say, I am soooooooo happy with my progress. I have great extension, my hand moves like before and I can now sleep with no pain. My scar from surgery, well I dont notice it until someone ask about it. Although I have more work to do in therapy, if this is as far as my arm will go, I am still grateful. A thank you will never be enough to express my gratitude to Dr. Michelin. His kind and gentle bedside manner just adds to his great work. Oh and Im definitely using my right hand while typing this and I was not able to do this before my surgery. Thank you again Dr. Michelin.

I cant recommend Dr. Michelin highly enough. He recently cared for my elderly Mother. He was so kind, patient and listened to her and what she needed. Under his care, her broken arm healed better than we could hope for! We highly recommend Dr. Michelin
