						Awesome doc. Straightforward, honest and personable. A true professional and technical expert in the field of joint replacement surgery. Answered any and all questions about my hip procedure with ease, both before and after the procedure. Also responded to emails personally and called me himself on more than one occasion to discuss various aspects of my case. I had to trust him completely with my athletic future given that hip resurfacing was plan A and total hip replacement was plan B, with a decision to be made in real-time during the procedure on which option to pursue. I ended up with plan B and have total faith that his judgement was spot-on. I would highly recommend him for anyone else considering joint surgery for the knee or hip.

						After years of suffering with hip pain when walking, standing, and climbing stairs, in 2018 I had my LEFT hip replaced by Dr. Mathews at TOH. Dr Mathews was highly recommended to me by my coworkers. Everything went very well, and after recovery, no more LEFT hip pain! Nov 2023, I came back for my RIGHT hip replacement by Dr. Mathews, and it went even better! Recovery came faster this time. I am quite mobile now, going to the gym and looking forward to traveling with many miles of walking! Thank you Dr. Mathews, thanks to your staff and TOH, I am very grateful to be the recipient of your expert care.

						Outstanding doctor, staff, facility! The entire process went better than I could hope for. I am in my 80’s and had my knee replaced 2 years ago. I was knock kneed and now my knees are straight. It was very swollen and now looks great. It’s hard to see my scar. The therapist here in Clear Lake said she’s never seen anyone get over knee replacement so quickly. 5 stars isn’t high enough for Dr. Matthews and his entire staff.

						Operated my father of 78 years for a knee replacement 5 months ago, at first he seemed kind of unfriendly, but later we noticed that it was just that he is so busy and good at his job that he goes to the point of an issue. Excellent service during surgery, explained everything, follow up appointments have been excellent with him. Texas Orthopedic Hospital gave us great service.
