Happy New Year!  Just wanted to let you know that today, not even 6 months since surgery, I hiked from the rim of the Grand Canyon, all the way down to the river, and then back to the top, in under 6 hours. 13 miles. 4,500 feet of elevation loss and gain. This picture is from the bottom. And, zero pain.  Thank you!!!

I was out golfing 9 holes today, seven weeks out from my simultaneous bilateral total knee replacements.  I did really well and got a birdie on the last hole.

Thank you again for everything you all did for me!

The whole experience, for my husband, of having hip replacement surgery was a scary one. Dr. Martin and his staff made the experience a comfortable one. His surgery went well and he was up, out of bed and walking the same day. He had very little pain and never needed pain medication. Dr. Martin’s staff kept me well informed during the surgery and Dr. Martin, himself, spoke to me after the surgery.
My husband was sent home with the medical equipment necessary to complete his recovery. The whole process was amazing.
He continues to be pain free and he is enjoying his life. Thank you, Dr. Martin!

I just love going to him he’s a great guy. Up front and did a fabulous job on my husband’s knee replacement. Matter of fact he’s doing the other knee in few weeks. Would definitely recommend him.

This office has the kindest receptionists and nurses. Dr. Martin was absolutely amazing to visit with. He put me at ease and made me feel like total knee replacement was the route to go. Thank you!

Dr. Martin was an absolute life changer! I’m only 26y.o but needed a hip replacement from a previous injury. I could no longer walk without assistance and was miserable. It was far from a regular replacement but Dr. Martin did an outstanding job and I can finally walk and play with my kids again. It took us a long time to find him, most Drs would hear my age and not even let me set an appointment but Dr. Martin was up to the challenge and it couldn’t have gone any better. Thank you again for giving me a piece of my life back that has been missing for so long.

Dr Shane Martin is an awesome surgeon.
One of my knees was in bad shape.
Dr said it was one of the worst ones he has seen.
He did a total replacement and I was back to work in 4 weeks.
His staff was available by phone. No recording.
They were all fun with a good sense of humor.
Dr Shane thanks for restoring my quality of life.
God bless you and your staff

Dr. Martin did a great job doing a total hip replacement on my left
hip. Recovery was was pretty easy. Up and walking a couple of hours after surgery and walking without pain or Walker in 8 or 10 days. Highly recommend.

Dr. Martin is the best there is! I have had both of my hips replaced by him and his technique and bed side manner are truly amazing!

We were so grateful to find Dr. Martin. He took on my case of a failed unilateral knee surgery preformed in Montana. We appreciated his professionalism and skills to return my mobility. His staff was also excellent as well. A first class surgeon and staff.

Today (November 9, 2020) is the two year anniversary of when you did my right total hip replacement. I wanted to bring you up to date on my progress. I have been a serious cyclist for 50 years. This morning I bicycled 51.8 miles. I am 66 years old now, and, as of today, I have bicycled 7,059.97 miles in the two years since my operation. This includes 123,780.8 feet of vertical ascent. My hip works beautifully! It is as if it never happened. I have no after effects and full range of motion. This operation is truly a miracle of modern medicine! I cannot thank you enough for giving me my life back.
