Dr. Tom Hackett, MD

Dr. Hackett is truly amazing. He operated on my son's rotator cuff and for the first time he is out of pain. You get the feeling, that Dr. Hackett really cares about his patients. I understand that Dr. Hackett is also an athlete and having that mentality, he understands their drive. My son is a cameraman and films with a 65 pound camera on his shoulder. To have that pain gone and his shoulder feel like new is beyond wonderful. The Steadman Clinic & Dr. Hackett are world renown and both live up to their stellar reputations. If you are lucky enough to have Dr. Hackett as your surgeon, you have made a great decision.

Gary and Desi Martinez in Whitewater Colorado. Extremely gifted surgeon without the ego of some with his skill set. Great guy. Summed up in one word, STUD. Blessed to have met him personally and professionally. Walks in the room and says, "Hey buddy" to me. Something that simple puts the husband of a patient at ease. Referring a family member as we speak.

Radiology report indicated full tears of the infraspinatus and supraspinatis, and long head bicept tendinopathy. There was significant retraction of the tears. Several Orthopedic physician friends explained the significant amount of damage and a very skilled surgeon would be needed to attempt repairs. Prognosis was hopeful but unknown. Dr. Hackett was recommended to me by a friend who also is an orthopedic surgeon. All three significant injuries were successfully repaired, and 3 months later I have nearly pain free full range of motion (and my Physcial therapist and I expect full range will return).

Dr Hacket is an extremely skilled and caring Orthopedic Surgeon. I had a ski accident where I dislocated and broke my right shoulder and paralyzed my arm from the shoulder down. After 18 months, 7 surgeries, 1 reverse total shoulder and too many PT sessions to count, I have my shoulder and arm back! Thanks to him I am back on my horse and back on my skis! In short, he gave me my life back. If you find yourself in need of an Orthopedic Surgeon, you cannot do better than Dr Hackett
