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.

Rude and incompetent front office employee
Sloppy job in getting required referral and additional clinical studies. No better interpersonal skills, I hope Dr Hammerman gets someone that is respectful and efficient. I am going somewhere else.

Dr Hammerman replaced both of my hips at different times. There’s no one better or more meticulous!! I was back at work 10 days after surgery and back playing tennis 2 months after surgery. He’s one of the few Doctors that always looks for the LEAST invasive answer first with best outcome for your lifestyle... very rare and appreciated!!!

I had hip pain for 1 year and a half, other Doctors keep dismissing me because I was only 32 years old. Went to see Dr. Hammerman turned out I needed a total hip replacement due to avascular necrosis. He is a great Dr. Very professional, great customer service. The staff is amazing, a special thank you Sonia. 6 weeks post-op and I’m feel great.

My family’s experience with Dr. Hammerman for the last 25 years has always been excellent. We can’t say enough about the quality care given from my nephews auto accident, sister-in-law’s knee surgery to my shoulder surgery. VERY professional and caring office staff. Dr. Hammerman’s assistant Katie has the same work ethics as Dr. Hammerman and felt good in her hands whenever she cared for us. Thank you!

Dr. Hammerman is an excellent orthopedic. Professional, extremely knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable. He is also a great surgeon. I am so happy I found him after spending 2 years trying to find the "right one" after my original orthopedist retired. Thank you Dr. Hammerman.

Was in severe knee pain,received a cortisone shot in knee and have been pain free for 1 1/2 yrs plus able to resume all sports. Neg reviews just point out that people need to take responsibility for their own after care and following Drs orders. This is a great Dr. I would recomend him to everyone. I'm a 77 yr. old female that loves that I can call ahead of my appointment to see if he's behind due to a emergency & instead of sitting there I can stay home or go shopping untill he's ready for me.

Dr. Hammerman is an excellent doctor. He wants his patients to heal to their greatest ability which requires hard work and a lot of pain. He put my wrist back together perfectly after I broke it badly - it is as good as new.

Fantastic doctor, went to him for a second opinion on an injury, his diagnosis was completely different to original diagnosis of another doctor. Dr. Hammerman referred me to a specialist who confirmed his diagnosis. The prognosis from both Dr. Hammerman and the specialist left me feeling a lot more optimistic. Regarding a separate injury, Dr. Hammerman found two fractures in my wrist that a previous doctor missed and again treated that. Highly recommend Dr. Hammerman

The office is very courteous and respectful of you and your time.. It is natural for an orthopedic doctor to have emergencies.. but, in consideration of your time, they advise the patient to call 1/2 hr prior to appointment.. This helps alleviate some of the wait time. Also, Dr Hammerman has called me late at night to discuss test results. He is caring .

After my knee didn't heal right after surgery, and I got tired of taking the narcotic meds prescribed by this Dr, I went to another Dr. and found that I was misdiagnosed and surgery wasn't even necessary. For what ever reason, this Dr. pushes surgery in the worst way. He must be desperate for money or something. I recently had to hire an attorney. This Dr. has no malpractice insurance. His staff, especially Katie is extremely rude and condescending. I have found that Memorial partners with
