Stay away! No scans incorrectly diagnosed. Terrible bed side manner. Like to blame others. Does not except responsibility as a surgeon. Go to practice that fired her Tufts in Boston. Please avoid at all costs

Dr. Hoffman is the best hand/wrist doctor. I had surgery with plates and screws with no problems at all. It has only been 4 weeks since my surgery and my hand/wrist is almost back to normal. I highly recommend Dr. Hoffman.

Terrible doctor patient interaction. No compassion. Mistreated my treatment. I was denied a MRI. I ended up doing to another practice and got one to find out I had a torn ligament in my wrist. She just prolonged my care for my wrist and now we are in a pandemic which makes things even more difficult to get certain treatments done. Stay away from this one!!!!

Worst dr. experience me or my husband has ever had. Sooo unprofessional. Literally stormed around and slammed the door and became aggressive because my husband asked for an area to be numbed. Swas unwilling to answer my husbands questions and gave quick answers and no resources.

I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR TO ANYONE. SHE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ANYONE EXCEPT HER SELF YOUR JUST ANOTHER NUMBER TO HER. SHE HAS A VERY BAD ATTITUDE THAT SHE DOESN'T GIVE THE PATIENT A RIGHT TO CHOSE THERE OPTION TREATMENT YOU NEED TO GO BY WHATEVER SHE SAYS WHICH IN MY PART IS WRONG.

I broke my thumb about 5 years ago and she did a great job getting it back in place with little scarring. Every time I met with her she was always friendly, not sure where the other reviewer gets "too big of a(n) ego" from, maybe just a bad experience.

There are way better doctor's that will treat you with respect. She doesn't care about your view's. Her view is all that matter's. Too big of a ego....
