Testimonials

Being treated by Dr. Hunt has been an excellent experience. He has a kind and thorough bedside manner. He made sure I thoroughly understood my diagnosis and prognosis and made me feel comfortable to ask any and all questions. He took the time to answer my questions thoroughly and addressed all of my concerns compassionately. I would recommend him enthusiastically to anyone in need of his expertise.

Dr. Hunt, thank you so much for your wonderful care this year! My new hips worked perfectly yesterday during out first ski day of the season. While I’m sticking to blue runs, I was able to turn and maneuver better than I ever imagined. Best of all, I was able to ski the entire day with my family for the first time in years! Keep up the great work and know how much you’re helping to improve the life of so many people. May God continue to bless you and others through your efforts.

Dr. Hunt, I am in Singapore and Thailand this month. Walking through jungles, on beaches and dodging Tuk-tuks in Bangkok. I could never have have don this without the hips. Thanks again.

Dear Dr. Hunt, it has been 9 months since you performed surgery on my broken femur. I feel blessed that you were in the Emergency Room when I arrived. You did a skillful job of putting “Humpty Dumpty” together again. From being unable to put any weight on my leg, I am now able to walk again and participate in the activities I enjoy. The bones are not completely healed, but I have made a remarkable recovery with the help of a lot of therapy, hard work and patience. Thank you so much for the wonderful and skillful job you did on setting my leg.
