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.

Left hip pain
I was very impressed with the efficiency of my visit. Dr. Hoffmann was able to review my x-ray and discuss my options. He also gave me an injection in my left hip area. The nurses and staff were all very helpful and pleasant. Thank you!

Hip Replacement - THANK YOU!!
I was referred to Dr. Hoffman after consulting with another surgeon in the office, and I am very thankful I was! Before my hip replacement, I was experiencing severe pain in my hip on a daily basis. During our pre-surgery appointment(s), Dr Hoffman listened to each of my concerns and explained the procedure thoroughly to make sure we were always on the same page. After the outpatient surgery, I felt immediate relief and was able to walk the same day. Yesterday marked a month post-surgery and I had a follow-up appointment with Dr Hoffman. I again expressed my concerns about the recovery process and he was sure to listen and provide the appropriate solutions for me. I cannot thank him enough!

Dr Hoffman was very approachable and concerned about the condition of my leg. He ordered an MRI to get to the bottom of my problem.

I highly recommend Dr. Hoffman
I have been seeing Dr. Hoffman for quite a few years. He is professional and I never feel rushed. He answers all of my questions all tells me what my options are. He takes a more conservative approach, which I appreciate. I have problem knees and the cortisone injections always help me. There may come a time when they won’t, but at 82, I will take that approach as long as I can. I also feel respected as a patient. I am very happy with my care from Dr. Hoffman.

Amazing surgeon
Dr. Hoffman was personable, calm and extremely knowledgeable during my initial visits when a plan was created to correct my hip issues.Now one month after surgery, my rehab has been amazing and I haven’t felt better in months. Because of his expertise, I am way ahead of where I thought I would be after the surgery. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Hoffman.

Excellent care!
My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Hoffman for ivermectin a decade. Dr Hoffman had consistently delivered exceptional care. He takes the time to ask thorough questions and discuss any issues, always explaining things in a way that's easy to understand. Every visit leaves me feeling positive and reassured, knowing I'm in excellent hands.

Very Thorough, Helpful Consultation
I originally requested a consultation, related to some hip, leg and knee discomfort. After reviewing the x-rays, Dr. Hoffman concluded the discomfort was most likely related to some back issues. He very patiently answered my questions and performed a physical range of motion exam, to also determine any pain experienced. I was very pleased with his promptness and professionalism and also want to compliment the very courteous and efficient x-ray staff, as well as the young lady who took care of the check-out process.

Great service and care.
My son broke his wrist and needed emergency care. SFO and Dr. Hoffman were able to see us same day, and each team member from beginning to end was kind and compassionate. Not to mention we had no waiting time. I am deeply appreciative, as I have never dealt with an emergency situation like this before. Thank you so much.
