Review for Dr. Hemmer Jr

I like the efficiency and high expertise of all the staff. Joint replacements are a high anxiety event, and I get great confidence I was in the best of all possible places. It helped so much that I could do pre and post exercises at home. I’m having the right knee replaced in November. The pain...
