Dr. Hurley and his PA are amazing. My mother had a very difficult case given her break, her skin integrity and her bone softness. We couldn't have asked for a better outcome. We are very thankful for their stellar work.

Dr Hurley provided excellent counsel to me. I've been having pain in both thumbs. At my age, arthritis is inevitable, and Dr. Hurley reviewed all the treatment options—from doing nothing, pain killers, cortisone injections and surgery. We decided to try an injection and pain killers and creams to alleviate the pain.

My first experience wasn’t very promising and I didn’t leave there with a feeling that I was going to see any relief for a really long time. But after an MRI and a shot of cortisone, I feel much better and as of today, no pain.

With my wrist acting up, I so appreciated Dr. Hurley offering the least invasive options first and if that doesn’t work, he told me to come back for an injection. So appreciate the friendliness and professionalism of him and his staff.

I was impressed with this facility, the staff, and Dr. Davis Hurley/ Hand Surgeon. Every member of the staff that I spoke with, was kind and professional. The facility was clean and tidy, and modern. I was especially impressed with Dr. Hurley. He clearly and thoroughly explained what was going on with my x-rays and my hand. He gave me options, surgical and non-surgical, and also gave his opinion. I thought it was especially kind when he asked me, which of the options seemed best for me. I would absolutely recommend this facility.

Jan V.
I went to Dr. Davi's for a second opinion and to see if I could get relief from my shoulder sooner than the first doctor had told me was possible (3 weeks out). I was in agony, and the thought of three more weeks was very frustrating. I needed an ultrasound injection, so I thought that was the cause for the delay with the first doctor but Dr. Davis was able to take care of it that day immediately. I felt instant relief i'm couldn't be more grateful Dr. Davis. From the most basic things, waking up the next morning not noticing the stiffness and pain immediately as I had the past seven weeks.

Dr. Hurley was prompt, candid and kind. He didn't push interventions and actually dissuaded me from taking a cortisone shot or (over)using nsaids. I appreciated his conservative approach.

Absolutely outstanding experience. My son had a complicated elbow break, Dr Hurley did an amazing job with the surgery and everything afterwards. The one time my son was slacking a bit during his rehab, Dr Hurley told him he was, and that was what he needed to hear. It was the perfect balance of encouragement and reality. Do what Dr Hurley recommends and you'll have great results. 6 months after surgery he is as good as new with full mobility and strength.

I was referred to Dr. Hurley by my PCP and couldn't be happier with the care I received. The receptionist, Medical Assistant, and XRay Tech all made me feel comfortable and welcomed. Each of them greeted me warmly and explained what they did within the practice.

Dr. Hurley and his PA were equally welcoming and professional. They approached me as a person, showed genuine interest in my condition, and Dr. Hurley fully explained his diagnosis. He provided me a treatment plan and made sure I understood my next steps.

I will not hesitate to return to him if need be, and I highly recommend him and his staff for any hand problems one might have. They are an excellent group.
