Great visit
One of the finest hip replacement doctors in the US. He is gifted with outstanding patient communication skills and pleasant in relating how a patients needs can be met.
From start to finish, I felt that I had excellent care. He is warm and kind, funny and friendly. I felt 100% comfortable with him and they communicated great throughout the entire process. His office staff and physicians assistant and care team are top-notch. I couldn’t believe how they took a stressful situation and made me feel at ease and cared for.
Dr. Was in a big hurry didn't answer Pat. Questions no time poor visit,
Dr Header is the. Best !!!!!!
He gave me a referral to get an MRI. I have a $30.00 co-pay, I guess he made out on that one.
He dismissed my pain, and my injury. His explanation was the instability was all in my head. The only treatment he gave me was a second opinion at UW.
Great Doctor
Fantastic Doctor! Great personality! Did not rush me through my appointment and took the time to answer my questions and concerns. He was very aware of the pain I was in and was as gentle as he could be during the physical exam of my shoulder. If given the opportunity to rate higher than a 5 star I most definitely would have. I highly recommend Dr Haeder.
Best ever!
