    I have had to email Dr. Hoberman a few times. Every single time he has responded so quickly, even on the weekend. I was very nervous about the surgery and he made me feel better. He answered all questions, even the ones that I felt silly about. I would highly recommend him.

    When I met Dr. Hoverman, he was very considerate and he understood that my shoulder hurt me very much. He had me do an MRI to see what was going on and I pour my ligament and he made the appointment. We had the surgery, very considerate and explained everything what to expect. I will recommend him very pleased also with the staff, the nurses the radiology.

    Very rushed experience. I clearly was not a priority. Mistakes were inserted into my clinical notes that I caught and I can only hope they are gone and don’t cause a clinical error in the future

    Very kind and knowledgeable doctor. *BUT* I received a steroid injection for my shoulder impingement. It helped my shoulder tremendously. However, 12 says later, I got a period for the first time in 4 years. As a post menopausal woman, this scared me. After looking this up, hormone disruption seems to be a fairly common side effect of steriods. Being told this would have saved me worry. (I have still made an OBGYN appointment to make sure.)

    I had seen him once 2 years ago for a fracture; this was a follow-up I requested on a break repaired by another Dr on an emergency basis, in a different area of the state. Dr Hoberman is courteous, listens and answers any questions clearly. I asked to see him because my first experience was so positive.

    He is very thorough and professional. On the several times I have needed a steroid injection, he always is able to pinpoint correctly the area that needs to be remedied.

    Dr Hoberman was great with me. He referred me to a great pain management doctor who I am currently seeing a neurologist who I will see next month. I was very happy with the amount of time he spent with me and answered all my questions.
