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 replacement
Today, I had a six-week post-operative visit for a hip replacement. The surgery is an overwhelming success. Dr. Haffner, PA-C Davis, and all the members in his medical practice are caring, highly skilled, and patient. I highly recommend Dr. Haffner.

Definitely recommend
I have been going to Dr. Haffner for years (over a decade) for my knees and now for my hands and wrists. Takes time to explain all options carefully and is very skilled at giving the shots in exactly the right places. Relies on feeling the joints in addition to x-rays. He is patient with concerns and is conservative in treatment. Some surgeons want to do surgery right away. If he can do something less invasive he will recommend that. Over a decade and I've not had a surgery yet. Although when I do, I will choose him. He has treated my mother and sister (who did have surgery).

Extremely rude and condescending
This man will make you feel like you don't matter and your pain is insignificant. I am a person with feelings but the notes he put on my file make me feel less than. Do not subject yourself to being humiliated by this man. There has to be better doctors out there. No one deserves to be treated like this.

Dr Haffner is an excellent surgeon. He is also a very decent, likable human being. He did my knee replacement Two years ago. I’ve healed up quite well. I think I am fortunate to have met him and have had him for my doctor. He knows what he’s doing. Don’t hesitate to trust him. He will look out for your best interest. He has a nice staff too. I always felt comfortable going there. Many Thanks to you Dr Haffner, and your very good staff as well!

I've had injections in my knees multiple times, by him and his staff. He was a bit more gentle then some of the people I've had. Bedside manners, not always the best, but for the results he's provided, I can take it. I believe he knows his stuff and I recommend Dr. Haffner.

Dr. Haffner replaced my right knee. He was caring and courteous with a great "bedside" manner. He explains everything clearly in an easy to understand manner. I highly recommend him.

I had arthroscopic shoulder surgery performed by Dr Haffner in September, and just finished PT today. I would definitely recommend him. He is straight forward and explains everything, from what to expect during surgery to months down the road. I can now move my arm pain free.

I have had My left knee Replaced. On my right Leg He repaired my Quad Muscle. Dr. Haffner also Did Carpel Tunnel On my right hand. I have, and would commend to any body who needs any type of Orthopedic Work done that this is the doctor you should go to. I would take my Children to see him if they had and Orthopedic Problem.

I really like the doctor and his staff. I felt comfortable with what he was going to do before my surgery and 'well cared for' after my surgery. I had my right knee replaced last year and am going to have the doctor replace my left knee this year, so that I can live better, with out constant knee pain.

Dr. Haffner was very caring and made me feel comfortable. He explained all procedures and options very well. I never felt rushed at any visit. A few months after my knee surgery I fell at home and was able to schedule an emergency appointment that day. I have already recommended him to family and friends.

Not sure I would trust him to make a baked potato in my microwave. Could not read my MRI disc, he got frustrated and left the room, to go to other patients. Worked hard to discredit other Doctors previous work. Did not do even a mediocre job to try explaining what was going on with my injury. His inability to focus on one patient at a time would worry me that the wrong leg would get worked on if I was in surgery. Can't wait till I can get another opinion.
