      I saw Dr. Scales over 10 years ago when he was with another physicians' group in Lawrenceville, Ga. He treated me for two frozen shoulders, and 6 total joint injections. He was absolutely WONDERFUL!! When I recently developed my hip problem, I sought out Dr. Scales again, even though he is now 27 miles from my home, because I trust him completely with my Orthopedic care.
