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.

Hip Surgery
Had a hip replacement by Dr. Hanson close to my 89th birthday. Everything went so well that I wish I had done it a few years sooner. I highly recommend his professional expertise and his attitude.

Do not see him if you have a rotator cuff tear. Even with MRI and PT exam to confirm he denies that it’s there. If you want someone who can actually help don’t even bother with him, 2 months and I am still waiting for the repair to a full tear.
