    How was your appointment with Dr. Hayter?

    Feb 14, 2023
    In 2025 Dr. Hayter performed a partial knee surgery on my left knee. He was not quick to recommend surgery, as I did several rounds of cortisone shots over several months. After not getting any relief, he told me I was a good candidate for a partial knee replacement. He was always very kind, compassionate and knowledgable. My knee has done very well, thanks to Dr. Hayter. His office staff were always very kind and got me in to see him with short notice when I was in pain prior to the surgery. I recommend him highly.
