Patient Reviews
Apr 05, 2024
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Harrington’s for more than five years, and he and his associates and staff are always thorough, thoughtful, and empathetic regarding all aspects of my health and health care. Several years after being diagnosed with hip osteoarthritis, it became obvious that I should have hip replacement surgery; I was easily able to schedule it with Dr. Harrington’s staff months in advance. It took place at Baylor College of Medicine’s orthopedic surgery center which, from my experience, is a great facility. Waking up from that procedure and no longer having the hip and thigh pain that I felt prior to surgery was such a relief then, and now. I’ve also seen Dr. H for knee pain, which, thanks to his recommendations, improved quickly and resolved itself (I’m grateful not to have needed surgery). For anyone seeking the expertise and care of a doctor who specializes in knees and hips, and who’s very personable and has a great sense of humor, don’t hesitate to see Dr. Harrington.
