Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent Surgeon - 2nd knee he replaced.
Dr. Humbert and his staff provided an excellent experience - thorough, professional. This was the 2nd knee he replaced for me and the experience both times was exceptional. He has a great manner and is not rushed in his interactions and discussions. The surgical facility was top notch. Overall an exceptional experience and highly recommend him and his practice.

Outstanding from start to finish.
My experience with Dr. Humbert and his staff was fantastic. From my first appointment to surgery to follow up was excellent. All procedures were explained in detail, questions asked were answered immediately. Follow up at the hospital, home nurse and PT personnel was exceptional. External PT was the same. I am very pleased with the results and would highly recommend Dr Humbert.

Highly recommend
Didn’t rush to replace my hip. He tried other methods first but ultimately we decided it was time to do a full hip replacement. He and his staff were very professional, caring, and communicated everything to us so there were no surprises when surgery was done. The nurses at Lee Memorial Hospital were also outstanding during post op. Once home, the PT people provided were very caring and professional making my recovery much faster than I anticipated. I would highly recommend Dr. Humbert and his entire team.

Total Hip Replacement
I chose to have Dr Humbert replace my hip while we were in Fla for the season. One of the best decisions I’ve made. I’m very happy with the results and would certainly use him if I need any further replacements.

Dr Humbert IS the best surgeon in the joint!
My right hip was replaced by Dr Humbert in 2010. Perfect! My left hip was replaced (I was 87 then)October2024. Once again, perfection. Dr Humbert and his staff are the best in every way. I'm so pleased with the experience.

Humbert PA Brian wonderful
Dr. Humbert was the right call by my primary care physician. He was nice and when I apologized for the mixup in getting my X-rays and having to repeat them and cause him a delay in his busy schedule; Dr. Humbert was very kind and helpful. Said it was okay that things weren’t going smoothly and I could still be seen after my X-rays at his office by him. I was bone on bone. I needed surgery right away. The scheduler had a problem with me looking at my phone that I use for hearing, books and my appointments. If I need to change my volume, I have to use my phone. The snarky office scheduler said that I was giving her pushback. Also when I asked if Dr. Humbert did surgery elsewhere, she had a lady from reception say to me that he does NOT do MY TYPE as outpatient! MY TYPE? Spoke with Brian, wonderful PA. Explains everything and says that I should not have been referred to as A TYPE. I am 5 on BMI away from outpatient.

When you need something done right.
Getting a knee replaced had me nervous to say the least. I checked around my community and his name came up often. I met him at joint implant and was very pleased with his knowledge of the procedure so I did some more studying and discovered this is what this guy does and he does it well. From the surgical center to the home healthcare rehab I was pretty impressed. At 4 weeks post surgery I have returned to pretty much normal life and am looking forward to the future with my new knee. Thanks Robot doc. you really do nice work!

Knee replacement
Worst surgeon EVER!! PLEASE GO ANYWHERE ELSE!! Not only does he devote more time to covering up his dismally performance...has his staff make sure he's covered liability wise !' I had my left knee done in 2014 with a 4' incision. My right knee by Humbert was a solid 6' incision and my leg looks like a wishbone. Follow up is just ' looks good .give it time ..reviewing people are in his pocket'. I'm UPSET !! I certainly don't want to go under the knife again....I'm 70. Live in painkillers and they're no longer helping. Go ANYWHERE ELSE!!

Caution! I had a total hip replacement in 2019. I have not had even ONE day where I’ve been without pain. Dr Humbert will not even look at my images that show the prosthesis is loosening. He just dismissed my claim and sends me elsewhere. After numerous calls and appointments with other orthopedic doctors and shots in my back over the past 5 years, it now looks like I am facing a revision surgery of a hip replacement that was NEVER right. TWO neurosurgeons said that my pain is not coming from my back as Humbert likes to claim.

Gave me My Life Back
From the moment I met Dr. Humbert I was impressed with his attitude, knowledge, empathy and overall positive attitude. I had put off surgery for almost 2 years and had I known about Dr. Humbert sooner I would have had my hip replaced sooner. He and his incredible team made the entire process easy and comfortable. I'm in my 4th week of recovery and I already feel like I got my life back. The bone on bone feeling and sharp pain, not to mention muscle spasms has all faded away. I look forward to taking advantage of this gift Dr. Humbert provides all his patients and enjoy my purpose and journey in life without the doubts and fears that the chronic pain was causing. I highly recommend you interview him and see if he's the right fit, he was more than that for me ansd I am just so thankful someone recommended him to me.

Dr Humbert and staff run an amazing facility. They give you all the information to be successful, read it, prepare your home, and bring a positive attitude! Highly recommend the 'Ice Man Machine'....tip: freeze a water bottle, and add to tank with the water and ice .... coldness lasts longer.

My situation started with arthritis in my knee.

My knee replacement was so well done I was up and walking again. I could walk on sandy beaches again, use stairs, simply have a life again. So thank you, thank you for taking such good care of this patient!
