Dr Hughes did both of my knees with a total replacement. He is an amazing Dr. He’s patient, kind, empathic and has the best listening ear of any physician I know. He goes above and beyond to help you get through the surgery. He’s there all the way to the end!! I recommend him to everyone I know in need of a hip or knee surgery! Kimberly
