I would never want to go to anyone else!! I truly believe that I would not be walking today if it weren’t for him operating on my leg in the early 2000’s. He has truly been a blessing to me and several of my friends.

This was my 1 year check up for a shoulder total reverse replacement. Dr Hocker questioned my shoulder use over the past 6 months, checked several strength and range movements, and reviewed the new X-rays with me. When he asked did the surgery meet my expectations, I answered EXCEEDED.
