Great experience
Both hips replaced by Dr. Humbert and I can’t be more happy! I’m finally pain free!
Explained my procedure thoroughly and it went smoothly. Feel 1000% better
Dr Humbert replaced both my knees last year and this past January replaced my right hip. He is an amazing surgeon. Extremely professional and answers every question you ask in a thorough manner. I will be seeing Dr. Humbert in the Fall to replace my left hip.
Thank you
Dr. Humbert and his staff were exceptional for my total knee replacement. The surgery only took about 1/2 hour. My recovery and therapy was excellent and speedy about two weeks.
