Patient Reviews
Mar 18, 2024
Doctor Matthew Higgins is the absolute best orthopedic surgeon in the Chattanooga area. Performed my bi lateral hip replacement in 2023, and I was up walking the same afternoon, on a walker with no pain, and had an uneventful rehab and recovery. Dr. Higgins was extremely clear, informative, friendly, and his informative video of the minimally invasive direct anterior hip replacement procedure was a big educational plus. I strongly recommend a visit to Dr Matthew Higgins and his orthopedics team if you're having any issues.
