His staff is friendly and efficient. Dr. Hontas has always taken the time to answer all of my questions and I never felt hurried. As I completed physical therapy after TKR surgery, he followed my progress closely and encouraged me throughout the process. I would highly recommend him.

Caring and competent. When I walked in I was in pain due to an inflammation of tendons on my left hip. Walking was hard and stairs were impossible. He quickly diagnosed the problem and administered a treatment. Now I am back to normal and very grateful.

I don’t care about wait times or how friendly the staff is. What counts is results. I have had 2 surgeries with him. Both went off flawlessly. The problem was completely corrected with a minimum of pain and discomfort. That’s what counts.

Excellent! Dr. Hontas is impressive as he is easy-going, very informative, and supportive. He explains your condition and treatment options in easy to understand language. What a relief to find a true professional. His staff is helpful, friendly, and professional. X rays on sire. I did not have to do new patient forms as they had pulled them from Ochsner. Effective, efficient, prepared, and friendly Doctor and staff!

I dreaded knee replacement surgery so I avoided treatment and took increasing levels of pain killers until I caused stomach bleeding. Realizing that I had to get the knee taken care of, I found Dr Mark Hontas. Because of the amount of pain, he also thought that I needed replacement surgery, but sent me for an MRI. The MRI showed the meniscus was badly torn and had wedged into the knee joint. The excruciating pain I'd suffered was gone overnight after arthroscopic surgery to clean up the knee!

Extremely competent surgeon with great patient rapport and an easygoing, friendly manner that ease your fears before potentially frightening procedures. His office schedules appointments and answers all of my questions in a very prompt manner. I have had both knees and one hip replaced by this doctor, and I pray that he is still practicing when it is time to replace my other hip! He has definitely improved my quality of life after years of very painful osteoarthritis.

My family and I have been going to Dr. Hontas for almost 30 years and we love him! He has done surgery on both my knees and my husband's shoulder, along with treating a number of other breaks that my children and I have experienced over the years. He is always in a good mood and joking with us all the time. I have never seen him in a bad mood!
