Outstanding orthopedic surgeon! I don't think I'd trust another surgeon to do any joint replacements on me other than Shawn. Wonderful bedside manor!

My pain that appeared to be my hip joint is actually a spine concern. I’m just a few minutes of reviewing my X-rays and MRI, Dr. Hocker knew. Referral with an appointment to my spine specialist who is also at Emerge Ortho. Dr. Hocker has replaced both of my knees in the past 3 years. Excellent physician and surgeon. I highly recommend.
