Patient Reviews
Oct 29, 2024
Dr Hocker was very thorough & explained my X rays so that I have a clear understanding of my knees. We are proceeding conservatively which I am happy about with cortisone shots & my own care at home to help knees worn out from 30 plus years of high level Triathlon training & racing. Knee replacements are a possibility in the future but I was really happy that he did not go there first. He is also very personable & his own high athletic achievements & his depth of knowledge & experience give me confidence for him to relate to my situation.
