Skilled and caring. An outstanding professional.

After diagnosis, immediately scheduled my procedure for a few days later, which I greatly appreciated. My wound healed quickly, and I was pain free after the operation. The followups were always excellent. Both he and his PA are solicitous and caring.

Wonderful

Dr. Hembree has been amazing to work with from diagnosis to post-op care. He was willing to try something that had a high percentage of success, but he did thorough diagnostics first. I trusted his call on surgery, and I'm feeling so much better than I was before surgery!

Never had any issues.

Each visit was enjoyable considering i was here after a surgery. My questions were answered clearly. I didn't have any issues with any of the post surgical recommendations for proper treatment.

Great experience!

I felt really listened to, repsected, and cared for by everyone in Dr. Hembree's office. I broke my ankle in November, and everyone here was able to work with worker's comp to help me get surgery and accommodate my needs. I learned a lot from everyone on the team, and everyone was very helpful and kind. I met many times with Alex and Dr. Hembree, both of whom were professional and respectful. I would absolutely recommend anyone who has ankle or foot injuries go to this doctor's office.

AMAZING!!!!!!

Dr. Hembree saved my foot. I tore my achilles tendon about a year ago, he was able to diagnose me and fix me up. My tendon had been infected and he did my surgery (After two previous surgeries with another doctor). My foot closed right up and it's only been uphill since I've seen him. He is an amazing doctor, he listens and cares about his patients. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you for saving my foot!

Best medical experience to date.

Appointments are on-time from the first consult to the last follow-up. Dr. Hembree delivered the best result I could've asked for after I tore my achilles. I have full confidence in this surgeon and his team to repair any foot/ankle injury.

excellent

I did a lot of research on foot surgeons in the Baltimore Washington area and Dr. Hembree was my first choice. I'm an RN who worked in the hospital setting for 30 yrs. We have strong opinions on Drs. :) I have been extremely please with the care I have received throughout this process of foot surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Hembree and his NP Alex.

Excellent Overall Experience

After breaking my ankle a year earlier I was quite concerned as I was not completely healing. I addition I was not able to schedule an appointment with my original orthopedic surgeon do to scheduling conflicts.After a bit of research I found Dr. Hembree and I must say that was the best decision I could have made. Upon our first meeting he immediately diagnosed the issue and schedule me for surgery to have the old hardware removed. I must say I am not a fan of surgery however the experience was night and day compared to my last. Upon waking from surgery I was not groggy or in any significant pain. Furthermore I must commend the entire staff as everyone was attentive and accommodating. Thanks again to the entire Harbor Memorial Team!

really appreciated the expertise and professionalism

I would be happy if I received the quality care received from Dr. Hembree and his team with every doctor visit I have. The team was clearly knowledgeable, was able to adapt as things changed in my care, and engagements were always pleasant and professional. I would recommend this team to anyone with a need for their expertise.
