I was very nervous about having my hernia surgery, but after visiting Dr. Howard at his office I could tell from the way he explained the procedure and the recovery afterwards that I was going to be in expert hands. It has now been two weeks after the surgery and I had a final visit with him today and everything checked out just as he said it would. In hindsight there was no reason to be nervous when you are fortunate enough to be treated by a experienced doctor who makes his patient feel at ease and comfortable through the entire process.

I had to have emergency surgery in the ER so I did not personally choose Dr. Howard but I certainly will if I need any future surgery. I was totally satisfied. He treats you like you are the only patient he has. My surgery turned out to be a little more complicated than usual but because of him I came through it perfectly.

Dr. Howard and staff were so attentive and kind! The doctor made sure to explain my entire surgery and answer all questions, even if he didn't know the answer, or it was an answer I didn't want. He was very honest and friendly! I will DEFINITLY come back to Dr. Howard if I have any other surgery!!!

I was referred to Dr. Travis Howard by Dr. Grossklaus, a highly respected urologist. I kept an open mind and was blown away by Dr Howard's knowledge, professionalism and bedside manner. My surgery and recovery for my double hernia was flawless. I highly recomend this doctor for hernia surgery and ive heard he also is highly sought after for other surgeries like GERD/acid reflux which im also in the process of pursuing. I've referred several people to him and you will not be let down, truly one of the best in AZ

Dr. Howard has a wonderful, caring manner. He took his time and explained the surgery and recovery to me. After surgery when I had additional question his office called me right back and helped me with any needs that I had. I would recommend him to anyone that wants a doctor that stays connected.

Dr. Howard is very friendly and caring. He explains procedures in a very clear, easy to understand way. I felt like he really cared about me and that I was in good hands during my surgery. He even gave me his cell phone number to call in case I had any concerns after my discharge from the hospital.
