He is a little rough around the edges when he speaks. Besides that I like his right to the point attitude. Just not being knowledgeable of my injury i feel a little lost. Maybe if he could explain what the injury is and surgery is.. i might understand better.. But I have heard how amazing he is.. so i will go with his knowledge and skills

This man actually still cares about the patient. Healthcare has devolved into a concern mostly for financial reimbursement. Mostly because insurance companies are virtually completely controlling healthcare. Dr. Havenhill is concerned about you, the patient. A rare occurrence, unfortunately, these days. He is competent. Highly intelligent. How/why do I know? Besides the fact that it is obvious, he graduated from West Point in the top 1 or 2% of his class. (I believe it was 1%). This enabled him to pursue a career in medicine. If you are familiar with West Point, getting to the top 1% is virtually impossible, and therefore quite an accomplishment. IE, that's how I know he's intelligent. If you have problems unresolved in orthopedics, I would highly suggest you seek this man's opinion.
