Dr.Fred Hankin & The Michigan Orthopedic Group are an incredible team! Caring, patient, understanding and light hearted towards each process. No matter the severity of the medical issue, Dr.Hankin gives me the confidence in my mind I can get back using my hands through the steps he provides. And using “everyday terms� not just physicians use, lets me see the light in the tunnel.

03/18/2024

When a physician can make me feel like an individual & not just another “patient or number�, I feel like we are part of the healing process together. Since the medical group has the knowledge it’s crucial for that support, for me atleast. And surgery is serious and some individuals need different type support.
