Patient Reviews
The following are reviews from patients of Dr. Hedderman.
“Dr. Hedderman answers my questions and explains what will happen. In follow up, I especially appreciate being seen by Dr. Hedderman himself and not being turned over to a PA. He has replaced a hip and returned to him for a knee replacement.”
– Robert J.
“I have seen several of the Center's Dr.'s, but the best one is Dr. Hedderman. No matter what my complaint is, he always knows what I have to do and which dept. will help me. I have tried going to the others right away and it never turns out well. Dr. H. ALWAYS knows what I should do. I got my cortisone injections from him and it was the easiest that i ever experienced. I recently had severe sciatic problems, I went to Dr. H and he had ex rays taken and then scheduled me for an MRI. He subsequently sent me to Dr. Khalsa. He was marvelous also. He showed me and explained to me what he was seeing and the gave me his recommendations. Not one of which was "surgery". That in my book is the biggest plus of the whole Center. I have gone for Therapeutic Massage and my problem has greatly improved. I have recommended the Center to many people and I always recommend Dr. H. first and foremost. Everyone that has taken my advice and gone to him has agreed.”

“I've been to see Dr. Hedderman on several occasions for different arthritis concerns. The first time was because of skiing accident I had almost 5 years ago to my upper arm and shoulder. The surgery was the next morning and Dr. Hedderman was the surgeon. He told me it was a difficult fix, but I must say everything went well and was out the following day. Went to see him for follow ups a few times. My husband and I always found him very friendly and truly concerned about my well being. In the years following he has helped me with hip problems and knee. Always guiding me and sending me to the right Dr. to take care of my problem.
