Patient Reviews
Dec 13, 2023
Dr. Hontas was very nice and caring doctor.I broke 4 metatarsals and dislocated my lisfranc joint on my right foot back in 2022 .He wa Simon call call the night I went to hospital and did ORIF the next day. Every time I had appointments post up, he explained my miraculous healing and performed X-rays.He is very knowledgeable and amazing doctor.I healed just fine after months, and appreciate his work he did on my foot.He sent me home health nurse and physical therapist and aid.I followed with 3 months of physical therapy and was able to walk without a boot after 3 months post up.If you break a bone or have joint problems , I recinebs him to be your doctor!! And he always dressed so professionally.!!!!! If you need an orthopedic surgeon, I recommend him.I shattered my fibula and broke my tibia in 11/2023. I was sad that he wasn’t on call that weekend I went into the hospital on the 18th and had surgery on the 19th with another doctor but I got to see him when he made rounds on the weekend and I seen his brother the following weekend when he made rounds!!!!! I so wished dr.Hontas was on call that weekend of this year because of would’ve had him again. But even though he didn’t do my surgery this time, I am following up with him postop. I do not like the doctor that I currently have so I’m switching to him if he needs to do x-rays, he can do x-rays and

About Me

Care Philosophy

  • As physician and patient, we work together to accomplish a desired goal. My role is to provide accurate information about the condition or diagnosis including treatment options that may or may not involve surgical intervention. The patient's role is to own their success by committing to a course of treatment and giving it their all to achieve rehabilitation of their limb. Together, we are a team with one goal in mind, and that is returning my patient to the way of life that was interrupted by accident, incident or condition.
