Dr Horning really listed to me at this appointment and was much less dismissive than he has been at a previous appointment. I really appreciated that he asked me about my activities and lifestyle movement requirements and was also clear about long-term surgical options and mobility.
Took his time to explain options
Dr. Horning is an outstanding knee surgeon. He was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about my recovery. He took the time to answer my questions, explain everything clearly, and made me feel confident throughout the entire process. I’m very grateful for the excellent care I received and highly recommend Dr. Horning to anyone needing knee treatment.
Very calming explanation and good prep for cortisone shot in my knee! Didn’t even feel it.
Dr Horning is a great physician. He takes his time and explains the issue. I will continue to treat with him.
Great experience and caring...
Dr. Horning is excellent. I am very happy with my procedure and follow ups!
I have confidence in Dr. Horning’s medical expertise.
Friendly, personable, professional, thorough
What an unexpected pleasure with encounters from check-in through the time with Dr. Horning at this Ephrata office. Caring and professionalism were so evident. What I liked the most about Dr. Horning was the fact that he did not talk down to me as I have become accustomed to with other doctors since I moved to Lancaster. He treated me like I had a brain, was educated and focused on my personal health issue and educated and informed when I had questions. He never appeared rushed or impatient. I would give him 10 stars if I could! I expect my rotator cuff surgery will be equally professional, and that I will be treated with dignity and the best possible support from him and his staff.
