He was so kind and compassionate to me. Pushed my pain level farther than I needed to. He told me not to be shy about coming in sooner for help.

David K. • June 04, 2026

Dr Haggerty was much more pleasant this trip. We actually had a bit of a conversation. He does still feel like he is in a hurry. When he left the room he left the door open while I was trying to put on my shirt after two shoulder injections. Maybe he is coming along. I wish I didn’t feel like he was in such a rush to into move onto his next patient.

Scheduling was different than what we were told to begin with. We could have saved a motel charge as we live out of town. Very pleased with Dr. Haggerty and staff.

Dennis E. • May 20, 2026

Haggerty; excellent. Wish he could be my primary. Professional, personable, engaging. Not only an excellent surgeon, but a fine human being. Front desk & support staff: excellent & kind.

Pamela B. • May 19, 2026

Dr. Haggerty explained our options and was conservative with suggesting follow-up in 4 weeks. He wasn't quick to suggest drastic measures in addressing my injury. If things don't improve then we will decide on the course of action.

Thomas M. • May 18, 2026

His office always gets you in on a timely manner. And Dr. Haggerty is always straight forward with you and answer all your questions.
