Dr Harwin is amazing. I saw two ortho surgeons for my right hip about three years ago and they were not as thorough and detailed. Everyone in his office is wonderful, professional, and friendly. His x-ray technician, Louis, is funny and thorough. He took both my knees, both hips, and my lower spine - which the two previous ortho surgeons I had seen did not do. Dr Harwin had me walk before him so he could observe my hobble and then thoroughly showed and explained the structure of a normal hip and then we went through my x-rays in detail. I feel completely comfortable and fully confident in him. Especially given that he was referred by two friends that have had their hips done by him. My surgery with Dr Harwin is scheduled and I am looking forward to him fixing me so I can walk and feel back to normal.
