On my first visit, he tells my it's my scaphoid bone - doesn't repeat the x-ray (4 days after going to the ER) and only uses theirs, stating it's "in line and fine". Followed up 1 week later with swelling still present, pain on the OTHER side of my wrist and still unable to move my fingers or thumb (9 days post fall). Xrays are taken, he says this time that the radius is broken, but it's "in line and fine"...denies saying it was a scaphoid fracture. Got angry when I asked questions, told me that "I needed to use my fingers", that "it's going to hurt bc i have a broken bone", I'm in the medical field and he got IRRATE that I was asking questions about what was happening, why the pain was in a different location if "everything's fine", as he insisted, and even crossed his arms asking me what I wanted him to do, in which i replied "your job, but accurately"! I immediately went for a second opinion! I have a free floating piece of bone that is broken off of the radius, pressing on nerves, not allowing my fingers to move!! This was on the same day and straight from there! I don't recommend ANYONE go to this joke of a practice if you value your body whatsoever!

I have been seeing Dr. Hawthorne for several years now and can attest that Dr. Hawthorne is not…read moreonly an awesome doctor, he is also an incredible surgeon. I have been receiving knee injections from Dr. Hawthorne in my attempt to postpone the inevitable - knee replacement surgery. More about that another time. On Father's Day weekend 2023, I felt a momentary sharp pain in my right shoulder. Having felt a similar pain in my past, I assumed what I had done. I put off seeing Dr. Hawthorne until July. After the CT, the official diagnosis was, "retracted full-thickness, full width re-tear of the supraspinatus tendon and, retracted full-thickness near full-width tear of the infraspinatus tendon". In laymen's terms, I tore my rotator cuff - again. The surgery (not arthroscopic) was addressed in mid-August. I started in-home PT 3-days after the surgery (arranged by Dr. Hawthorne's office). In-home PT continued for 3-weeks. I am currently in outpatient PT doing the work to re-gain both my strength, and my range of motion (also arranged by Dr. Hawthorne's office). By the way, I have a tattoo on the shoulder where the surgery was done. Without exaggeration, you would not be able to tell that I had surgery if I did not tell you. The point of incision is barely visible. Dr. Hawthorne is a man of few words. He'll give you the facts to help you to decide the next steps, without the glitter. When you are ready, you can move forward with him and trust that he will do a great job. I trust him. As soon as I have completed PT and have fully recovered from rotator cuff surgery, I will be scheduling with Dr. Hawthorne to get my knees done, one after the other. I highly recommend Dr. Hawthorne and his team.

I like that they take a conservative approach (he didn't jump to "you need surgery"). He also was willing to sit and answer all my questions. I didn't feel rushed.

Just FYI - this place specializes in knees and hips, so if you need other orthopedic assistance, you'll have to look elsewhere.
