The reviews listed below were collected independently of Hughston Clinic Orthopaedics through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
Dr Pahl is a brilliant, gifted surgeon, and his team are beyond words. It has only been 4 weeks since my surgery, but the difference is unbelievable. How do you thank someone who has, in all likelihood, added years to my life?

He was very knowledgeable, professional, and very nice. He asked appropriate questions to help him better understand where the pain was coming from!

Didn’t feel a part of the decisions being made & no other suggestions were given. Was fixated on one solution even with me inquiring about other alternatives.
