Patient Reviews
Feb 10, 2024
I have seen Dr. Hester since 2016 for both ankle and foot problems. He’s an excellent diagnostician and is concerned with every aspect of your condition! Plus, I would never go elsewhere for the custom made orthotics he offers via Jerry, the steadfast and amazing orthotic maker! Dr. Hester’s practice moved far from me in Boston, and since then I received such mediocre care for my foot problems. But I’m back and feel safe in his care, even if it take awhile to get there.! Run, don’t walk to him unless you have a terrible foot problem, them walk slowly!
