He listens to what you have to say. He knew exactly what I was describing and how to address it. I was able to get back on track and begin the healing process after a miraculous procedure he recommended to address secondary pain.

Dr. Hurlbut performed my right knee replacement and a follow-up knee manipulation under anesthesia due to my limited range of motion. From the beginning, Dr. Hurlbut was straightforward, clear, and focused on results. I know I am getting honest, expert care.
I am now choosing him again for my upcoming left knee replacement. I highly recommend this physician/surgeon!
