First visit with Dr. Hughey. Great personality and very professional.
Dr. Hughey and the entire staff at the Hampton Cove facility are exceptional. Check in was very easy and minimal wait time. I was there at 1:30 and diagnosed, treated and out the door by 3:15, very fast in my opinion. I highly recommend this facility for anything Ortho related. The TOC has always provided exceptionally services and this Hampton Cove office is no different.
Very professional. Easy to communicate with about my physical problem.
Hampton Cove is lucky to have TOC doctors.
The Kenalog injection he gave in my knee gave me relief within 2 hrs; 3 day later I am still pain-free. OUTSTANDING!
Excellent experience! Very knowledgeable and great bedside manners.
He was so patient and did a great job explaining everything to us.
Spent plenty of times assessing my knee. Very cordial.
Listened well and was open to discussing treatment.
Our service was great, We didn’t see Hughey at all. Keith attended me, he was very compassionate and informative. I ask questions and he took lot time explaining all.
