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.

Rotator surgery
I met Dr. Hamner in 2009, before these reviews were used. He explained what he was going to do with this rotator surgery and what the probable results were to be. He was straightforward and honest with the answers, I didn't like the answers, but he was honest and accurate. I am likely headed back to him in 2025 and have every confidence in him from my previous experience.

Two Sports Surgeries with Dr. Hamner
I highly recommend Dr. Dyson Hamner for orthopedic surgery needs. As a 60 year old fairly athlete guy I have now had surgery twice with him. The first time was in 2012 for major shoulder repair from bodysurfing into the sand, during which time I was more leery and it was my first surgery. The second surgery in 2022 was for a jumping related traumatic knee injury. It was such a relief to be able to confidently go right to Dr. Hamner and to have him open up his schedule for my urgent surgery.

Dr. Hamner took great care of my daughter's torn meniscus. My daughter is very active years after surgery. Dr. Hamner related very well to my daughter and explained everything to her. He was very patient with all my worrisome "Mom" questions as well, and I was very appreciative of his kindness and understanding. He took time to listen to my concerns, which is not common in today's healthcare system. It was a blessing to know my daughter was in great hands. Dr. Hamner is a great surgeon and I wouldn't hesitate to seek his expertise and care in the future. Thank you Dr. Hamner for your patience, honesty and wonderful care!
