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.

Laidback Professionalism
Always a very comfortable banter with Dr Horn. He listens intently and sees to my care in a personal but professional manner. I've never left the office with a question unanswered. His staff is top notch also.

Dr.Horn has done knee replacement and carpal tunnel surgery. I recovered from knee replacement in 4 weeks and was back to work. Dr.Horn and Altus hospital is the best I've have ever been to. Dr.Horn and his staff is the most professional people and most courteous along with hospital staff is awesome also. I've been to 3 different orthopedic surgeons and Dr.Horn is the only one that was able to get me going again. Best choice I made was going to Dr.Horn. Thanks again Dr.Horn and staff.
