Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Damaged me with one more steroid shot.
I'm upset that this doctor and his medical assistant, immediately could see that I had atrophy in one of my hands. I had had a steroid shot in the area nearly 1.5 years before and he said that should come back. I hadn't remembered when I had the steroid shot, but because the chart was in his immediate access, he should have looked to see it had been a while and not given me the second steroid shot in the same area. Now it looks worse and I am distressed looking at all the loss of collagen, fat, and muscle in my hand and my arm by now. If he saw atrophy, he shouldn't have given another shot after that long.

Dr Henderson gets an F in my book even one star is too many. I would not recommend him to my worst enemy. He left me with lifelong excruciating pain with no cure. I'm sure he remembers me. Well, I am here to tell him and the world that he was more than negligent. I certainly hope he feels shame everyday, just the same way I'm reminded every single day that he is responsible for my never ending excruciating pain. Unable to ever be the mother that I was. Unable to be the wife that I was. My whole life gone. Anyone thinking about having surgery done by him should think twice. Dr Larson is an excellent orthopedic surgeon. Best in the springs...... Dr. Henderson, should you read this lovely review, it was long overdue. You are a disgrace. I will never forget you. No matter how hard I try.....

This doctor is the best orthopedic hand specialist in the state of Colorado! The absolute best! He provided excellent care and took the time to explain the available options/procedures for a gunshot wound to my right hand. Very confident and capable and knowledgeable. Great patient bedside manner. I would highly recommend him for you hand injuries. Also, Jo, his PA was a great help and just as confident!

Dr. Henderson is the most kind, caring, and professional doctor my wife and I have had the pleasure of being treated by. He truly cares about patients and the total experience with him from staff, office visits, and delivery of services is unmatched. My wife and I have been treated by him at the USAF Academy Ortho clinic over past several years and we know in our hearts and minds that he is the absolute best that we could ever hope to get in a doctor.

Dr. Henderson goes beyond his profession. He is personably and very knowledgable. I have nothing but the highest regard for Dr. Henderson and his staff. The repair he did of my left shoulder gave me my life back. Before the surgery, I was in consistent pain plus it would dislocate continuously. Thank you Dr. Henderson for everything you have done.

He did a total shoulder replacement on my left shoulder at the USAF Academy Hospital on March 2016. Best care I have ever received for a surgeon. I have had multiple surgeries and his care and compassion for exceeds that that I received for previous care. Top of his field in patient care. My shoulder is better than I could of expected. Thank you for all care and your service!!!!!!!!!
