Dr. Hughes shared different options and choices for treatment while adding his professional opinion - but giving us choice (when it could be) to be involved in the treatment plan. He explains things clearly and makes sure we understood what was happening.

I am really happy to have Dr Hughes for my surgeon. He takes the time to listen carefully to my concerns and then answers them concisely. He is a very professional, yet personable, person and I believe he takes my wellbeing seriously. He always explains carefully to what degree my leg has healed and discusses with me any issues I may be having. I trust him implicitly with my orthopedic work. He is really awesome.

He is a very knowledgeable doctor. Genuinely cares about my daughter and is always patient and understanding to her concerns and needs. He always answers our questions and even though he does not spend hours with us he does not make us feel rushed in the visit. He makes us feel and know that he will be available for us at any time. One time we were over an hour late and he still made tome to see my daughter. Not that I would arrive late again but I really appreciate it because we were coming from out of town. Dr. Hughes always takes into consideration that we come from out of town. I never have had such a great experience with a specialist in my life like we have had with Dr. Hughes and I greatly appreciate everything and all the time he has set aside for my daughter and her broken arm.
