I just had left hip replacement performed by Dr Herrema a few days ago. My hip was bone on bone and the deep pain was crippling me. I couldn’t walk without medication sever pain and limping. At night my legs and hips would burn with aches and pains, from my hip region all the way down my thighs, sound familiar? My hip now feels great and the pressure and internal pain is gone, only topical bruising and stitching pain remains which is understandable. On my second day I’m walking with the help of a walker and getting better by... read more

Dr. Herrema was a Godsend. He spent quite a bit of time with me, explaining all options. Now one-year post knee replacement surgery and I am back to living a normal life. Yes, he’s young; but I appreciated that due to his knowledge of the latest techniques. He used the robotic arm and I had zero bruising. A very compassionate and caring doctor. His PA, Matt, was also incredible. I would not hesitate to put myself in their hands again.

I went in to see Dr Herrema for left hip pain - he came in, answered every question I had after he explained in detail what my options were. He did not make me feel rushed and he took as much time as needed prior to the surgery. Dr Herrema used the joint point navigation system and I truly believe that and his expertise made all the difference. I highly recommend Dr Herrema!!!

I feel so fortunate to have found Dr. Herrema to perform my hip replacement surgery. From the start he was warm and caring and fully explained the MRI and x-ray results and went on to explain the procedure in detail. On the morning of surgery he stopped in my room with assurances that everything would be fine. Prior to hospital discharge he stopped in once more to wish me well and answer any questions I had. I had lumbar spine surgery in Denver and never saw the surgeon once prior to and after surgery as well as follow-up vi... read more

Dr. Herrema is a GREAT doctor. I had been walking with a cane for 18 months due to a repaired torn meniscus (surgery done in Orlando) and RA. He explained all my options before I made the decision to have knee surgery and I’m very happy with the outcome. Have my walking stride back and so happy to have gotten rid of the cane.

New patients BEWARE. This is not a disgruntled patient trashing the doctor. He is very pleasant and knowledgeable. BUT.....the practice seems to be the problem. No Rx ordered (special compounds), no MRi ordered as promised. The rudest nurse ever. If you need relief and treatment find another practice. When you call in as instructed by the Dr, they act like you are trying to call the President.

I AM BLOWN AWAY BY THE KNOWLEDGE AND CARE I RECEIVED FROM DR. HERREMA. I WAS IN GREAT FEAR TO HAVE HIP SURGERY AND WALKED AROUND FOR THE LONGEST TIME WITH GREAT PAIN. I AM AS WELL A PARKINSON PATIENT IN THE 10 TH YEAR WHICH MADE MY DECISION TO UNDERGO A HIP SURGERY EVEN MORE DIFFICULT. I VISITED SEVERAL SURGEONS. WHEN I MET DR. HERREMA I KNEW IMMEDIATELY THAT HE WAS THE ONE. I RECEIVED A NEW HIP, MINIMALLY INVASIVE, ON MARCH 6 TH, 18. I NEVER NEEDED A WALKER OR A CANE. IT IS LIKE A MIRACLE!!
