My first surgery with Dr. Manning was 6 years ago with a quick and issue-free recovery. As a result, I have no hesitancy to engage Dr. Manning for a 2nd hip surgery. In combination with his obvious surgical talent, I find his style to be very professional, engaging and thorough.

I found Dr Manning's attitude to be very positive and his approach to patient care to be very uplifting. He was detailed in his explanation of the pending procedure and informing me of the expectations following surgery. I also liked the idea he was willing to initiate a consultation with my PCP and cardiologist and work with them in a team approach to my care.

Feel like he genuinely cares about the patient’s issues, listens and has the expertise to deal with my knee replacement surgical procedure.

I put off surgery until I couldn’t. Dr Manning was never rushed pre surgery. Made sure all my questions were answered. Even told me there was one question I did not ask but should have. After having met with two other surgeons I was surprised to hear I overlooked something. Rate of infection. Never heard of it but so grateful Dr Manning educated me. He was THE best for my knee replacement and I am so glad I chose him.

Wish I had done this hip replacement 10 years ago. The recovery process has been extremely fast. Stopped using crutches after 1 week, pain meds after 10 days, and am driving again after 3 weeks.
