Shawn B. Hocker, MD

Shawn Hocker has given me two new shoulders and two new knees as well as following my hip replacements by another physician. He has been my Doc for the past eight years and I have complete trust in him. Excellent bedside manner and explains things so they are easily understood Highly recommend !

Thank you for your time today Dr. Hocker. I did forget to ask you about the possibility of a prednisone 5 or 6 day pack. Ryan had prescribed recently and it allowed me relief of my shoulder pain and gave me some excellent nights' sleep and allowed me to do some strength building work with my arms as well. Is that something that could be ordered? Thank you, Jim Linton

I thought the doctor was returning and I never saw him again. Same thing happened last appointment with him.
