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.

Very caring
Very caring and helpful with our extermely disabled adult child. He would be a high risk surgical patient and Dr Hutchison is being very careful to treat him nonsurgically, even though it would be easier to treat surgically. It could be extremely dangerous for a noncompliant patient. It is not possible for us to keep him compliant. Dr. Hutchison is very concerned and patient interactive.

Horse Riding After 2 hip replacements
No nonsense visits, which I like. Responsive to my questions. Right hip replaced Feb 2024; left hip Dec 2024. My goal was no pain and return to horseback riding. In 6 weeks after each operation I could ride pain free on the operated hip. I am a 72-year-old female. Wished I would have had the operations sooner!

Bursitis on left elbow.
Receptionist, staff, and Dr. Hutchinson were all very helpful and polite. I like that he recommended oral treatment and surgery as a last resort.

A terrible experience
Probably the worse doctor I’ve ever encountered. Did a total hip on my 77 year old wife after a fracture in January. Used the wrong size device causing chronic dislocations. His shoddy work will be revised next week by a competent doctor. He never examined my wife post surgery even though she was an in-patient for a week and suffered a spontaneous dislocation. A staff member stated he was too busy. My wife suffers from severe anxiety and panic attacks now. I highly recommend that you stay away from this guy.

Good experience
I was very pleased with the outcome of my hip surgery. The professionalism of Dr Hutchinson and his TOC staff was top notch. I wish I had done my hip surgery sooner and been pain free years ago. I'm very grateful

Main thing was he was confident he could help me, and I wouldn’t have to continue to live in pain and fear of dislocation. After meeting him and listening to what he could do to help, I had no doubts and I was anxious to have my surgery.

Dr. Hutchinson is the best!
I have been going to Dr. Hutchinson for over 5 years. He and his team are very caring and professional. He takes time to answer any questions you may have. I have faith in him as a doctor and feel like he really cares about his patients. I highly recommend him for anyone who wants to be seen by a highly competent, skilled surgeon.

Best orthopedic surgeon for hip/leg in NW Florida
Dr. Hutchinson put my shattered femur back together in a way that will restore full function. 3 ½ months after my surgery I am walking a couple of miles a day unaided, riding my indoor trainer bike, and doing strength and stability exercises. Follow-up care by his PA-C Todd Johnston has been exemplary.

Total hip replacement
Fell broke right hip and had emergency surgery by another TOC surgeon. Complications arose and leg shrunk 3 inches. Later Dr Hutchinson was able to do another total hip replacement and fix the shortness of my leg. Very professional, caring and super sweet as well as everyone involved. Occasionally I get steroid shots in the hip and I don’t mind those either. Only suggestion I have is for Dr. Hutchinson to post a more recent picture of himself!! Lol
