In patients' words
"Dr Hood is a very skilled intense excellent surgeon. He is kind, thorough and a great communicator. I can’t say I like all of IU protocols, but the care delivered by Dr Hood, his staff and the Physical Therapists during my knee replacement has been outstanding."
— Birdeye review for Dr. Brandon R. Hood"Hood did a hip replacement on my 84 year old mother. He kept saying 'If you need us call' We called, and he did not respond... Brandon may be good at cutting, but he is horrible when it comes to post op care."
