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.

The Best.
Takes the time to listen to what I have to say and values my concerns. Professional. Seems to know what he is talking about and explains it so the average Joe can understand it. Just an all around great guy and Dr. to have.

Dr. Hadden is a skilled surgeon. My carpal tunnel release was successful, and I had no post op pain! At our first meeting, he successfully injected my left wrist with cortisone which lasted a year. At each visit he took time with me, explained things well, drew diagrams and didn't rush. He is personable, humble yet confident without being arrogant or pompous. I highly recommend him.

Great Doctor
He takes the time to really listen and then explains what he wants to do. In my case he also referred me to more Dr's to fix my entire right arm and shoulder . So what he is doing will stay fixed when he is done. I would most definitely refer him to all. He has a heart of Gold.

Professional
Dr Hadden is a compassionate and caring individual who went out of his way to learn my interests and then planned surgery to have minimal impact on those interests. He and the team took the extra time needed to complete the surgery which was longer than planned. His team set up follow up appointments quickly and offered to show the e rays during visit and also offered assistance by writing letters to my gym to hold my membership while I heal. Dr Hadden worked with me when ordering medications for comfort. He’s one in a million!

Biceps Reconstruction
Dr. Hadden is very professional, warm and friendly. He and his office moved very quickly to assist with this injury, which is time sensitive due to atrophy. I had to travel here because my local surgeon was not taking it seriously. As per the name, Dr Hadden and Rapid Orthopedic got me into surgery before my local medical network had even scheduled an MRI, and they own the imaging office where its located! I literally thank god for Dr Hadden and Rapid Orthopedic. Their aftercare was exemplary and no stone was left unturned with peripheral issues from the the injury or the surgery itself. They also assisted with my logistical problems due to travel distance. I've now made a full recovery. I am an active 47 year old with a 3 year old and a 1 year old. With Dr Hadden's help, I feel I will still be able to play catch or wrestle with my son when he is older and maintain my sheep farm well into old age. Thanks again Dr Hadden, I have a new lease on life and I am forever grateful!

Great Practitioner
Dr Hadden is very thorough and did an excellent job repairing a complex fracture. In follow-ups he was well- prepared, listened well, explained his thinking, and encouraged questions and patient participation in developing the plan of care. Plus, he is just very personable. Highly recommended!

Best Doctor, Best Result!
Dr. Hadden was very thorough and went out of his way to explain the condition I was dealing with, 'Trigger Finger', in detail, and what what the treatment would be. He was very approachable, answering all my questions and did not condescend, which sadly is often the case with surgeons. The injection I received was not at all traumatic, and in fact was exactly as he had explained it would be. We traveled a long way to get seen by Dr. Hadden and it was well worth the trip. Recovery was a breeze, and the condition I was treated for is completely resolved, with just the one treatment! I recommend anyone who needs attention for this or any other condition involving the hand or wrist get in to see Dr. Hadden, problem solved!

Fantastic surgeon and very knowledgeable
I did not get a chance to meet Dr. Hadden before my surgery, but had done a lot of research on him.I really like Dr. Hadden! He gives you his attention, answers all your questions with language you can totally understand. His manner is very open and honest while talking with you and not at you. I would definitely recommend Dr. Hadden to anyine with hand and wrist problems.

Thank You Dr. Hadden
Dr. Hadden helped correct ,restore and surgically provide mechanical function in my right hands 4th metacarpal/phalange connection. Since first meeting, Dr. Hadden has been so informative, highly explanatory, comforting and assuring a great recovery. Upon seeing the post images of my operation, I was astounded by the repair work. After already being a patient of prior orthopedic repair in my right Tibia, I can personally confirm.., this was a phenomenal intramedullary job executed by Dr. Hadden. Highly Recommended. Very Professional. +1!
