Dr. Drink water is a wonderful surgeon who perform a hip replace on me 8 years ago!

I am currently 14 months out from my second hip replacement done by Dr. Drinkwater. Although my first hip replacement was done well by a different surgeon who retired shortly thereafter, the surgery left one leg slightly shorter. As a result, I walked with a limp for 11 years before the second hip failed. Dr. Drinkwater in addition to performing the surgery perfectly he was able to get my legs exactly the same length eliminating the limp. He did a great job.

Dr. Drinkwater is an excellent surgeon. Dr. Drinkwater replaced my left knee. There were not any complications. Plus, I had an uncomplicated recovery. I will be needing a right knee replacement and he will definitely be my surgeon.

Dr. Drink water is arrogant, rude and nasty. Highly unaccessible!

Both Dr. Drinkwater and his NP are tops, professionally and interpersonally.

The entire staff was wonderful! They were organized, friendly, professional and most importantly knowledgeable. Dr. Dinkwater performed a hip resurfacing and I can't believe the difference. I'm now able to do the things I love because of him! Thank you for all that you've done.

A well known surgeon in the area. Dr. Drinkwater replaced my hip about 5 years ago. It couldn't have been a better decision! The surgery and post op were a breeze. I quickly got back to my normal routine being able to exercise, play sports (low impact, ski within 3 months) and live life again pain free. I couldn't thank you more!

I highly recommend Dr. Drinkwater. He did my rt. Hip Resurface 7 years ago without any problems and my Quality of life is second to none. The same is for my lt. hip resurfacing. He's got a great bedside manner and his knowledge and confidence are unbeatable in my opinion.

I couldn't thinking of higher praise for Dr. Drinkwater's work. He performed my wife's hip replacement 6 years ago, and because of his work and treatment of her, I went to him for my hip replacement two weeks ago. There was along waiting list, but it was well worth the wait. He was very professional, courteous. For a busy guy, he took time to see me just before the surgery and after the surgery, and answered all my questions. No hesitation in recommending him.

The patient needs and concerns comes after the System's, Legal liability's, the Doctor's, the cleaning staff's, and maybe his dog.. he doesn't care despite claiming ICARE values--what a joke. I have never met a more arrogant person in my life. He dismisses people when he is done listening.

I am 8 weeks post op from total knee replacement. I am very pleased with my outcome so far. Dr. Drinkwater thoroughly explained my options with pros and cons for each option so I could make the best informed decision for my treatment. My surgery went very well He is very caring, listens and fully answered my questions and concerns. I easily recommend him to everyone with orthopedic issues. I'm very happy I chose him for my surgery. His office is very well run and pleasant to go to.

I cannot remember the last time a doctor sat with me and answered all my questions, and explained my options. Anytime you consider surgery, it's a big step, and you want to know what your options are. I'm happy to say that after talking with Dr. Drinkwater, I have a great outlook on the future. He did not try to push surgery, he gave me my options and explained what the pros and cons of each were. You may have to wait a while to get into see him, but it will definitely be worth it.

Dr. Drinkwater is a wonderful doctor. Even though I had some complications, he was very compassionate and helpful in my recovery. It has almost been a year since my surgery but this past weekend I was able to do some hiking in New Hampshire. I am so much better then I was. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing hip replacement.

When considering THR for my two very arthritic hips, I saw Dr. Drinkwater because of recommendations as an excellent orthopedic surgeon. He was the one to suggest the anterior approach. I had my first THR in November 2014 and the second April 2015. I experienced all of the benefits of anterior vs traditional, and wholeheartedly recommend both it as a procedure and Dr. Drinkwater as a surgeon.

I would highly recommend Dr Drinkwater for hip replacement surgery. He is exceptional for using the Anterior Approach which reduces the healing time by 2/3's. There are also no hip precautions afterward. His choice of Anesthesiologist was superior this second time. The spinal block worked so well that less anesthesia was necessary, and it lasted for at least 2 days afterward, making the use of narcotics and the consequences of those less of a factor. I am extremely pleased with Dr. D.'s work
