EXCELLENT. I can't say enough good things...[My provider] was kind, caring, compassionate, knowledgeable, explained my options now and in the future…Very personable. Any patient would be extremely blessed to have him as your provider. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

The staff and the doctors are friendly and caring. They listen to what you have to say and answer your questions so that you understand. I highly recommend ORTHOKNOX!

My son suffered a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus and broken cartilage in the high school football playoffs last season. Dr.Hovis performed surgery and my son was able to play the first game of the season this year! Dr. Hovis was great! We appreciate him so much!

— L.A.

Excellent experience. Mike took great care of me and was very thorough helping me figure out a complicated problem. 10/10 would recommend.

— S.G.

Neil is patient, responds to all my questions, provides objective options and delivers compassionate care. Never once did I feel rushed or uninformed.

— K.U.

My physical therapist was knowledgeable and personable and made me feel at ease throughout the entire session. I appreciated the thorough explanation of the treatment plan and the clear instructions on how to continue the exercises at home. I highly recommend this physical therapist to anyone needing care.

— W.C.

OrthoKnox is an excellent place. I had total knee replacement 3 weeks ago, and I am recovering beautifully. All my friends and family cannot believe how far I’ve come in just 3 weeks. The staff is very kind, caring and take the time to ensure that all my concerns, fears and questions are resolved. Dr. Hovis and his PA, Neil Stoner, are the best.

— P.S.

Instantly felt at ease and reassured with my daughter’s care. Professional, informative and great bedside manner!

— M.P.

Everyone here has been amazing since first coming in through diagnosis, surgery, and now the recovery phase. Couldn't recommend these people enough.

— D.I.

All the doctors and staff at OrthoKnox including those in the physical therapy department, are very caring, and competent. I have been very satisfied with both the surgery outcome as well as the recovery. One nice thing is there is very little wait time after you arrive at your appointed time.
 
— G.V.

Very friendly and prompt! Always a good experience at this office. Lovely staff!

Laura has been great! She has been extremely friendly and professional at every visit. She has helped me make substantial improvement in my injury.

— W.O.

Delightful, helpful, encouraging, professional group. I am very grateful for their kindness.

— G.M.

Dr. Hovis has taken care of me the past 12 years. Started out with knee surgery and later in life with a shoulder that needed an injection. I would never go anywhere else because he is the best, and he cares. My last visit a couple of months ago was like seeing a family member again. You’re in good hands here.

— J.S.
