Dr Himmelwright has been my and my husbands Dr for well over a decade and has always taken the time to answer any and all questions we have ever had. Husbands had undergone many reconstructive surgeries as well as having 2 knee replacements done. I am about to have my first knee replacement done and cannot imagine having anyone else do this surgery. I'm dreading it (who wouldn't?) but I know I am in capable hands and know he will be fully present to answer my undoubtedly unreasonable amount of questions 😀

Dr. h was extremely thorough explaining the surgery and condition of my shoulder and bicep. He provided a clear understanding of next steps to improve the strength and mobility. He wasn’t rushed and answered all of my questions.

Dr. Himmelwright is exceptional. He takes the time to fully & clearly explain:
1. your medical situation and
2. your options for the most viable solutions.
He ensures all your questions are completely addressed to your satisfaction.
His orthopedic expertise is unquestionable. His ability to easily communicate that knowledge to his patients is what sets him apart. His affable manner immediately puts the patient at ease.
Based on his expertise, professionalism, and true concern for his patients, I would not hesitate to recommend this doctor.
