Doc Hart solved my wrist pain problem.

Doctor had my x-rays up and was familiar. He was ready to see me with my info. He did a double check to verify. Explained the care needed and gave good general orders to complete a quick heal. He looked me in the eye to confirm that I understood.

Dr Hart is one of the best orthopedic doctors I have seen. He is compassionate and caring. He has great bedside manners. He is also a very knowledgeable orthopedic doctor that I feel I can trust. I never have to wait longer than 5 minutes to be seen. I would recommend anyone in the Indianapolis area go see Dr Hart for services.
