Just a down to earth doctor
Excellent doctor. He repaired a complicated shoulder injury, one other doctors weren’t sure could be fixed: Through he and his scheduler I had very good pre and post surgery communication and follow-up care.
Most accommodating, always friendly and easy to talk to.
Very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and informative; cared about my husband's wellbeing and his input; answered any questions we had;
He cares about his patients and is great at what he does.
Dr. Hackett has now performed two shoulder replacements for me in the past year (right one in 2023 and left one this past June 18th), and both have gone smoothly. I am very pleased with the level of skill and professionalism I have experienced while being his patient.
