Surgeons - Ormond Beach, FL

"I have been seeing Dr. Hawthorne for several years now and can attest that Dr. Hawthorne is not only an awesome doctor, he is also an incredible surgeon. I have been receiving knee injections from Dr. Hawthorne in my attempt to postpone the inevitable – knee replacement surgery. More about that another time. On Father’s Day weekend 2023, I felt a momentary sharp pain in my right shoulder. Having felt a similar pain in my past, I assumed what I had done. I put off seeing Dr. Hawthorne until July. After the CT, the official diagnosis was, “retracted full-thickness, full width re-tear of the supraspinatus tendon and, retracted full-thickness near full-width tear of the infraspinatus tendon”. In laymen’s terms, I tore my rotator cuff – again. The surgery (not arthroscopic) was addressed in mid-August. I started in-home PT 3-days after the surgery (arranged by Dr. Hawthorne’s office). In-home PT continued for 3-weeks. I am currently in outpatient PT doing the work to re-gain both my strength, and my range of motion (also arranged by Dr. Hawthorne’s office). By the way, I have a tattoo on the shoulder where the surgery was done. Without exaggeration, you would not be able to tell that I had surgery if I did not tell you. The point of incision is barely visible. Dr. Hawthorne is a man of few words. He’ll give you the facts to help you to decide the next steps, without the glitter. When you are ready, you can move forward with him and trust that he will do a great job. I trust him. As soon as I have completed PT and have fully recovered from rotator cuff surgery, I will be scheduling with Dr. Hawthorne to get my knees done, one after the other. I highly recommend Dr. Hawthorne and his team. "

"I have been a patient of Dr. Tucker's for several years and have found him to be very caring and tries to provide the best medical care for his patients. When he was out for several months with Covid, I was switched to a different doctor in the practice, whose bedside manner left something to be desired, so I requested to be returned to Dr. Tucker's care when he was able to begin practicing again. I will never voluntarily switch to another ENT doctor again!"

"Outstanding professional. Knowledgeable, understanding, competent and confidence inspiring. Listens and cares. Staff is friendly, efficient, courteous and efficient. Cant find a better urologist than Dr. Hermansen. "
