Dr.Humbert is an excellent surgeon who cares for his patients as if they were his family!
Dr. Humbert did a great job on my knee replacement and he explains everything very good. I’m very pleased I chose Dr. Humbert
Excellent surgeon … very kind and thoughtful individual. I recommend him highly!
Best doc in the joint!
I heard dr Humbert does over 900 surgeries a year This is the guy you want to do your surgery I am very happy with the results I did two full knee replacements in 13 weeks
Dr. Humbert performed a total right hip replacement. His expertise and skill is amazing. 4 weeks later walking without pain. I would highly recommend practice to anyone.
Dr Humbert has this way of just calming you. He listens and has empathy for his patients.
EVERYONE has been top notch! Everyone in the office is extremely kind, considerate & helpful. Dr Humbert did an excellent job. I especially appreciated the time he took to answer my questions before and after the surgery. My only issue is my new knee leg is longer than the other leg. It started out a little longer, but now it’s quite a bit longer. I guess that’s rare that that happens, but it’s something I’m going to have to learn how to deal with. If I end up needing the other knee done I’m definitely going back to Dr Humbert.
