“Excellent Care”

Dr. Hembree and Alex were amazing. As an active woman approaching 50, they listened and respected my wishes to get back to my pre ankle injury shape. Highly recommend.

Dr. Hembree always took the time to listen, explain options and answer questions. I had complete trust that he would do whatever was best to heal my broken foot.

“Exceeded My Expectations-Great Pair”

Dr. Hembree and Nurse Practitioner, Alexandra Hassani are very skilled, easy to communicate with, very passionate, professional, and likable. When I called MedStar months ago to make an appointment for my son injury, we had no idea who to request. The medical receptionist made the recommendation. Our surgery was scheduled within days after our first office visit. After surgery, Dr. Hembree walked in the waiting room with great news by providing an update and what to expect. He answered all my questions. My son surgery was a success.

Dr. Hembree and Nurse Practitioner, Alexandra Hassani work great together. This is a platinum team of highly skilled medical professionals.
