Patient Reviews
- “From the very beginning of my contact with your practice, I have nothing but praise for every staff member. Dr. Hommel did an excellent job of repairing my broken femur, and it feels good as new. Subsequently, Randall Johnson directed me in physical therapy so that I recovered in an amazingly short time. I would recommend them to my friends in need of orthopedic care. ”– Frieda O.Treating Provider: Gabriel Hommel, M.D.Patient Rating:

Another health member at the hospital recommended the doctor. I was glad to get an appointment. Healthcare is still taking place. I'm looking forward to a full recovery. ”– Patricia H.Treating Provider: John Phillips, M.D.Patient Rating:
- “I fell on a concrete floor at work and fractured my femur in January. Dr. Clark placed a rod and two screws, all went well until upper screw began to rub tissue (I have a small frame) so another surgery to remove a top screw. Since the screw was removed, things have steadily improved. Dr. Clark is a gifted professional who was spot on with his diagnosis and treatment of both procedures. ”– Joyce W.Treating Provider: Jonathan Clark, M.D.Patient Rating:
- “A thorough examination and takes time to explain all procedures.”– Betty G.Treating Provider: T. Lisle Whitman, M.D.Patient Rating:
