Dr Clare is the BEST. he’s so caring and thoughtful and he listens to everything. This is my second surgery with him and my husband’s also had a couple and I wouldn’t go to anybody else. He’s the best.

Great as usual.
Dr. Clare is a very warm and personable man
Dr Clare gave me a thorough explanation of the condition of my hip and the treatment required for improved function and pain relief. This included viewing x-rays and discussion of implant hardware. Expectations for recovery time and rehab were discussed. Follow-up was 14 days after surgery. X-rays were taken and Dr. Clare reviewed them with us, confirming a good outcome. Recovery progress was discussed. Activity restrictions and home exercises were discussed. Our experience with Dr. Clare was entirely positive.
He’s been my Dr for over 10 years and appreciate all his staff as well
