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.

The best!
A Pickleball game caused broken bones in my wrist. Fast forward and the hand and wrist are perfect!

Medical Service wearing g a Smile
I was experiencing excruciating pain in my left arm and driving there made it worse. At the point of entry I met smiling faces and kind reception. They listened to my woes and offered possible solutions. Xrays were in office, a plus for me. Shortly afterwards they discussed treatment and effects, performed it and sent me on my way with after care instructions and reconnect info if needed. Very pleasant visit, took my mind off the pain.

Great 'hand' doctor
Quickly and accurately diagnosed and fixed a couple of trigger fingers. Thoroughly explained what caused the ailment and the various grades of care with patience and empathy. Thumbs up all the way!

Dr Hardy was friendly and informative. I made the appointment to get treatment for arthritis pain in my fingers. Dr Hardy has treated me before for the same ailment as well as carpel tunnel surgery on both wrists. After x-rays on both hands, he answered all my questions and administered cortisone in both hands. I have been quite pleased with Hardy in all my dealings with him. I definitly recommend him for any hand or wrists problems you want to have evaluated and treated.

Best of the best!
From the time I walked in and was greeted by friendly and professional staff members, the visit was perfect. I am a left-handed musician, and Dr. Hardy understands the importance of my hands working as well as I possibly can. He repaired my badly broken left wrist about a decade to go, and it remains far better than ever before. He's going to fix a trigger finger on my left hand soon. I go back because he is an exemplar, a leader in his field. Kind, brilliant, explains carefully and thoroughly, professional--best of the best! I recommend him without qualification.

Not worth the deductible
The appointment ran 40 min late. Dr. was dismissive. I have a very strange-looking hand and the doctor didn't even notice. People who are not doctors have seen my hand and asked what is wrong with my hand which I'll admit is rude but still my point is that's how little medical knowledge you have to have to notice there is something different about my hand. Maybe it wasn't his day. I'm not going to go back and waste any more money on this dude though.
