“GIVEN A NEW LIFE BY DR. HACKER....NO MORE PAIN IN EITHER KNEE!!! Dr. Hacker was sent from Heaven I'm sure!!! He is beyond wonderful. A warm and caring doctor that puts you at ease and gives you his complete attention focusing on your pain and so thoroughly giving you your options. Both my knees were bone on bone. Dr. Hacker just completed 2 partial knee replacements back to back June and Sept. Dr. Hacker is just a warm and caring and special doctor. I think of him every day as I can now walk my dogs, and dance around to music I love. On the day of each of my surgeries when he appeared to initial my knee...I looked at him thinking "I've got the best of the best doctor". Can't put a price on that calm feeling. Dr. Hacker's entire office staff are all just wonderful as well. I couldn't have felt more personally cared for and attended to every step of the way by their help and guidance.
