My experience with Dr. Munn has been exceptional! He repaired a tendon tear I experienced in Nov. 2025. I'm ahead of the recovery schedule, likely due to Dr. Munn's surgical skills. I have also found him to be very personable, yet professional. He takes time to answer any questions, and is very thorough. I highly recommend Dr. Murty Munn.Patient Submitted Review

Dr. Horning has been The Best in every way. He's forthcoming, patient, conservative, and talented. He has an open dialogue with parents and the child....and listens. With my daughter's ACL tear, Meniscus and Sprained MCL, he approached the injury and recovery with such diligence. He knew her goal was to get back on the soccer pitch as soon as she was physically able to do just that. Her plans to play in college have been realized, and we owe much of that to him. Also, her scar is so small compared to every other scar I've seen.... and I've seen a lot of scars in this sport! Praying we won't ever need him again; however, he's my Top Choice!Patient Submitted Review

I saw Dr. Horning for pain in my right knee. He was very kind and took his time explaining the problem to me, as well as explaining the two treatment options. When I asked for his opinion on which was the best option, he gave me good advice that required a shot in my knee. I expected the shot to be painful, but one gentleman sprayed a cold substance on my knew and when Dr. Horning gave me the shot, I didn't feel it at all -- not even a pinch. I would highly recommend Dr. Horning to other people.
