Dr. Horst was available and professional when I broke my wrist. After recovery he guided me through a long- overdue carpal tunnel surgery which went well and shows good results. I would not hesitate to visit Dr. Horst again, and recommend his services to friends

Friendly, clear, caring, will recommend a moderate beginning to treatment instead of the most severe - which may not be necessary. Willing to listen and ask appropriate questions. Genuinely interested in patient well-being.
