"I always have a good visit with Dr. Lutz. He has been my doctor for two or more years. I don't think anyone can fill his shoes; that is the reason I drive two and one-half hours to see him. He is one of the most qualified doctors I have seen. He takes the time to see what your problem is, and then he fixes it. I cannot begin to tell you what he has done for me. Most of my pain is gone. Thank you, Dr. John Lutz." -P.P.

"My experience with the orthopedic nurse practitioner, Jessica Shelton, was really good. She actually listened to me, took her time, and made me feel comfortable talking about what I’ve been dealing with. I really appreciated how she handled everything." -M.J.

"Dr. Rowland Roberson is the best. He is kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable about his specialty. One year later, I am so much better. He explained what happened in my knee yesterday like he had just done the surgery. I was impressed. Thank you so much. His staff is very good, too!" -M.C.

As we congratulate these graduates, we also dedicate this post to the loving memory of Oliver Faust, during what would have been his high school graduation year. Oliver was the nephew of Jackie Gardner, SOG Tupelo’s clinic office manager.
