Dr. David Eugene Hockman, MD

David is honest and open about treatment options. His dr/patient manner is the very best. He is so empathic and kind. COG is so lucky to have him.

Got a plan and ready for surgery. Dr Hockman made me feel confident in the direction we are taking.

Had my total knee replacement on Sept 13, 2022. He came in after surgery and explained why we were so long in getting it done because of previous procedure done elsewhere failed to get the job done right. He was visiting with me just as I was preparing to leave and that meant a great deal. He cares and it shows!!

Dr. Hockman is kind, caring, and extremely knowledgeable, had a full knee replacement six months ago. I’ve battled more swelling than I’d like, but would recommend him and his team in a heartbeat. They’re top-notch professionals.

Today was my 6 wks post op of total rt knee replacement. Dr Hockman is such a friendly, compassionate, professional and all around a nice person. I would highly recommend him for this type of surgery. I would also like to say his nurse, Sarah, go above and beyond to take care of everything else post surgery, from refills to referrals for PT and Insurance paper work promptly and efficiently. I really appreciated all that they do.

I have had both knees replaced by Dr Hockman. I have had wonderful results ??. I recomend him whenever I get a chance.

Excellent.

Had a total knee replacement, best Orthopedic doctor I ever used!!!

I was very impressed with Dr. Hockman. Loved his bedside manner’s and his caring for his patient’s! My daughter who is a nurse and works with orthopedic patients was very impressed also!

I am incredibly pleased with the knee replacement surgery Dr. Hockman did. He is a great surgeon! He is very personable, always answering my questions in lay terms, so my husband & I understand. He took all the time we needed to explain the procedure & recovery processes. Thank you Dr. Hockman!

A confident surgeon (knee replacement), which I want, minus any arrogance. Seems attentive and concerned about patient’s outcome and well-being. Good bedside manner and pleasant to deal with. My surgery went well and I have no complaints.

Everything was on time. Dr. Hockman was thorough and answered my questions.

Efficient pleasant and always helpful

He has done replacement on both my knees. I find him to be knowledgeable, compassionate, and consistently holds himself to a very high standard.

Five weeks ago, I received a partial knee replacement and today, except for some slight expected swelling and occasional stiffness, it feels very much normal and like my own. I'm also now walking 2-miles a day or more without pain. I am convinced that the success I’ve experienced is because of the skill and experience of my surgeon (Dr. Hockman), all the very professional staff, and up-to-date facilities at The Columbia Orthopedic Group. Before deciding to have my surgery, I was apprehensive and did much research to ensure I was having it done at the right place. The results prove that I chose correctly and I now look forward to many years of normal mobility. Thank you to all the people that made my surgery so successful. I could not be happier and I highly recommend the group and especially Dr. Hockman. He’s a great guy with thousands of successful surgeries. You could not do better.

Dr. Hockman performed knee replacement on both of my legs in the fall of 2010. Surgery went well, no infections, no problems. went home in 4 days and never took pain meds provided as less pain than before surgery. Walking a mile within 10 days, "accidently" road Harley at 2 weeks.....great experience and knees are great!
