Courteous, knowledgeable Clear explanation and plan On time Will recommend

Excellent diagnosis

Clear, articulate explanation of upcoming surgery. Let’s get it done!!

Very knowledgeable, attentive, spoke in layman’s terms. Provided support for continued care through PT. Did not push PRP or surgery as first resort. Highly recommend.

Very professional and caring. Took the time to answer all my questions that I have today. Was not in a hurry to get out of the room.

Worst appt ever. My appt was 40 min late. Dr. was extremely rushed. He took no notes during the appt. There was no med tech or nurse in the room with us during the appt so no vitals were taken . He addressed me as “Darlin” 3 times. I did not feel like I mattered or cared for

Dr. Bowman was friendly, caring and efficient.

Friendly, decisive and makes me comfortable with the diagnosis and treatment plan☺️

Always so nice but also very knowledgeable and professional

Painless procedure on the way to pain-free (at least for a few months). Personable, kind, and clear with his explanations.

Very kind and competant

Great doctor! He reminds me of my Son!

He is very nice and listens to concerns and gives clear answers

Caring and competent. Easy to talk to.

You did a great job on my knee. Thank you so much. Mary K.

Best Doctor and team in Boulder

Dr Bowman is fantastic and knew as soon as I told him what was wrong what yo do.

Very clear, answered our questions.

Very helpful, knowledgeable and supportive.

First meeting was very informative. Spent time to answer all questions and suggest options. Considerate

Knowledgeable and congenial!

He did not diminish the pain I had from one hip and proposed several treatments.

I’m not in favor of long surveys. I recently read article that we are being bombarded by tech online. I’ve been saying that for years. Time to get real. Best regards Julia Keane

Very knowledgeable and caring!

Saw more of the PA than him so difficult to tell

Always charming, and knows exactly what to say to make me feel comfortable. Very knowledgeable and professional.

Very professional!!!

Terrific experience. Dr. bowman explained the issues well. Very efficient and I couldn’t be more pleased.

He was thorough and attentive. He also asked about a previous injury and the treatment I received from another doctor in the practice. I have received quality care from this doctor and his colleagues.

Excellent surgeon!!

Attentive responses to my questions.

Fantastic doc! 😊

Dr. Bowman did my TRKR a few months ago. My results are fantastic! I recommend this surgeon for his skill, honesty, direct communication style, and his attention to each person as an individual. If/when I have to have my left knee replaced I will not hesitate to go to Dr. Bowman.

Great doctor…….. And he’s cute too!

Dr.Bowman has been wonderful! I was very nervous about a knee replacement. He answered all my questions and concerns. An excellent surgeon.

Very caring & great doctor. Dr Bowman informed me from details of my issues, I had great experience.

Dr. Bowman is easy to talk with. He is thorough and explained the testing he did with my sister. We both enjoyed the appointment. The MA and X-Ray tech were kind.

Great patient support. Put us at ease as Dr. Bowman explained the diagnosis. Highly recommend.

Really thorough, kind , gentle and answered my questions well.

I liked how he went about his business.

Great attitude. Very knowledgeable. Easy to be around.

Dr. Bowman was concise about my situation and clear about what I might do and included a follow up in six months to see how I’m progressing. I appreciated his wisdom and his thorough to details.

Great knee replacement.

Excellent explanation about knee issues and future treatment.

Dr Bowman is a skilled surgeon with great communication skills. I experienced terrific pre- and post-op care from him and his team. Plus, my surgery was a success!

Great bedside manner

Eric diagnosed my injury that several other surgeons were unable to determine the cause of my pain. Being the recipient of his second longest surgery, I continue to give Eric the highest recommendation possible. His personality is very warm, friendly, and very open. Under his care I feel totally comfortable and secure!

Very good with patients Explains completely the process and recovery

He was late but he explained why and then he listened and was patient but efficient with my visit.

I REALLY like this doc! He is open, told me he’s a straight shooter (and I’m buying it! ), takes the time to discuss anything I want and is generally very congenial.

I have complete and total faith in Dr. Bowman. I have referred him to 2 other people I know. Each one of those people had quite complex issues and he has resolved their problems. I avoided surgery for decades out of fear. Now I can relax and let Dr Bowman do what he needs to do. What a relief!!

He instills confidence has a great bed side manner. Provides excellent information. My totally knee replacement has gone smoothly. My recovery is progressing nicely due to his excellent surgical skills.

Analysis and recommendations were excellent

Dr Bowman is very intelligent, caring, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He offered ample time to diagnose my hip issue and answer all my many questions. I feel confident that he is the best and most skilled surgeon for my hip.

Dr Bowman was great and answered all my questions.

He has a way of calming you, as he comes across as extremely knowledgeable. I feel I’m in good hands . I am confident he will guide me in making the best decisions.

Very excellent surgeon! He did my hip replacement and I felt I was in the best of care the entire time. Explained everything to my satisfaction!

He was very direct with our discussions and we were able to reach a very good decision on a treatment.

Listens carefully and not pushy with anything. Also a good guy!

Office is not designed for someone with limited mobility it was extremely unorganized and very very painful

Efficient and helpful and friendly

Dr. Bowman admitted to being too busy to call my family after surgery. Then when I requested pain medication refill, he and his medical assistant, both admit to dropping the ball. I felt there was a little concern for me as a patient and a person, forgotten twice in two opportunities.

Dr Bowman took time to answer all my questions and has a great bedside manner. I'm glad he was on call when I broke my hip!

Very professional and a good listener!!

He really knows what he's doing. I thought I needed another hip revision and all it was, was bursitis. He gave me an injection and I really got relief. Thanks to Dr Bowman I'm feeling MUCH better and can enjoy my time with my daughter on our trip.

Wonderful doctor

He forgot my chief complaint; asked about the wrong body part blaming his MA. He was not respectful towards an issue I spoke about with him. I am also a health care practitioner and was very disappointed in our interaction.

Feel in good hands for knee work

Dr. Bowman treated my 93 year old mother with respect and care. He was very concise and clear in his review and diagnosis. Hailey his medical assistant also deserves an A+ rating for joy and thoroughness!

Our first meeting was informative and Dr. Bowman was patient and kind.

Pleasant, thorough and professional.

Absolutely the best! Takes time with me, answers all questions. He truly cares for his patients!

Personable and comprehensive in discussion of my options. Felt very comfortable with him.

Dr.Bowman is a Very, Caring, Kind, Personal & Excellent Surgeon. I fell & broke the ball off my femur on Friday morning. The ER Dr. began looking for a surgeon willing to do my surgery over the weekend & Dr. Bowman volunteered to try to find a team. My surgery was finally scheduled for Monday at 4:30pm & I was so fortunate to have Dr Bowman taking care of me.

Awesome,great doctor

Most excellent!! Very professional!! Very kind!!

He is an exceptional Dr in every way. He iis definitely gifted and so very kind and patient.

Always appreciate a doctor who cares enough to listen to all your concerns and is ready to discuss what your options are.

Very professional and knowledgeable. Explained everything.

Was caring , attentive, listened to all my concerns.

He answered all my questions and explained things clearly. I did not feel rushed at all.

Is a good dr, but visits are extremely short, he doesn’t ask a lot of questions, the patient should be prepared to present the info they feel is important. Has never spent more than 10 minutes with me.

So glad I was treated by Dr Bowman

Very personable. Answered all questions .Not rushed which was nice. Staff is very nice as well. They smile!

Dr. Bowman is an excellent surgeon who takes time with his patients and answers questions

Dr. Bowman is obviously very good at what he does. I am profoundly thankful for him doing my total knee replacement. What has most impressed me is how Dr. Bowman REALLY takes time to listen to questions and concerns. I never feel like I am just being rushed through. As an aside, Dr. Bowman's assistant Haily is also fantastic.

Very personable guy! Really enjoyed meeting him and discussing my situation with him; I feel very good about scheduling my knee replacement surgery with him when I am ready to do it.

Took time to fully explain my complex issue and provide options

Thanks for taking me on short notice. I really need pretty quick assistance. Thank you. Was very informative and took time to explain my situation.

Highly recommend DR B, repaired my fractured femur / hip . replaced the previous hardware in that hip . 14 weeks later I’m doing quite well . Mobile etc

Thorough & quick

An amazing surgeon and health care provider.

Nice to work with Erik.

I think Dr Bowman is amazing. I will recommend him to anyone I know of that can benefit from his expertise. He did my total left knee replacement and I will go to him for my right knee. He is abundantly knowledgeable and very reassuring. Perfect balance of professionalism and understanding! I feel blessed to have him as my orthopedic surgeon… I was truly terrified

To the point, puts a plan in action

Best decision I made concerning my knee.

This is the second surgery that I had with Dr. Bowman; both were amazing outcomes. From my first appointment Dr. Bowman provided detailed information on what was going to happen and what to expect at each step in my treatment, surgery and recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Bowman.

I had a good visit with Dr Bowman. He explained what where the areas of concern were in my hip, and gave me a good picture of what to expect regarding a future hip replacement.

Encouraging, open, real, totally easy

Professional compassionate and always listening

Dr B has not performed surgery on me yet. If that goes well…we can bump it up to 5 stars. He has a pleasant manner and seems to listen I don’t feel rushed.

He described my condition in great depth, told me my options in detail, and was easy to talk to. He also helped me in making my next decision. Thanks

He doesn't take the time to really listen to you as a patient. I had hip replacement 7 weeks ago and I have had a really hard time and still have pain that I don't think I should have this far out. When I told him what kind of pain and how I have it all the time and where it is he didn't take any responsibility he just blamed it on my back that I need to have an MRI and some injections. I've had a bad back for many many many years and this is a different area and a different kind of pain since the surgery. I also told him that my neuropathy pain that I've always had for again many many years is different and worse since the surgery and once again he blamed that on my back. I think he would rather just do the surgeries and not have to see his patients. I have to have a knee replacement which I thought he was going to do but after this surgery I will be going elsewhere to have that knee done.
