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.

After over 10 years all I can say he is great. I trust him. He has mapped out what he thinks will rid me of years of pain for the pain management to follow. Oh he does smile. LOL

Zimmer Biomed TKR by Dr. Hannum
I have had both R & L knees replaced by Dr. Hannum and am extremely happy that I did so. From the time I had my first visit with Dr. Hannum, to my most recent follow up appointment, Dr. Hannum and his team were kind, thoughtful, and professional. Communication was key . I felt prepared for TKR surgery. With wonderful hospital care and PT, recovery is going well.

Very likely and have already recommend him.
Dr. Hannum was very professional, he took the time to show and explain the XRAYs in detail. He replaced my hips over two years ago and I am very satisfied.
