Great visit. Answered all my questions. Just a very friendly guy!
Dr Humbert is an expert in his field and a really nice Doctor. I'm glad he was recommended to me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a knee replacement.
Brilliant surgeon. Wish he'd spend more time in the exam room though.
Dr gives clear instructions before surgery and this helps ease any anxiety since we know what’s happening. The videos had tips to prepare, including starting exercises before surgery. Very nice that the home nurse and home pt came immediately along with the set up for outpatient pt—- there was no lag in therapy. Dr totally has an efficient plan of treatment — and it works!!
I can't Thank Dr. Humbert enough for the replacement of both my hips this year. I haven't been able to walk without a walker since 2019! Now I can enjoy my retirement and have some fun. Thank you so much!!!
Long time patient. Great practice!
Great Surgeon! I'm very happy with my new knee.
I got there early and so they did my X-ray early and then put me in the main waiting room. When I asked about my appt. Found out that the nurse had been calling me from the post X-ray waiting room.
He’s a 10! I am the luckiest person to have had the opportunity to be taken care of by Dr Humbert’s entire team. First Class all the way.
He is the best surgeon. Very skilled
