Testimonials

“We have been impressed with the staff and the doctor we've seen at OCR! I saw Dr. Snyder for my bilateral hip impingement and labral hip repair surgery in March, and I'm healing up great. We really like Dr. Snyder; he was pleasant to visit with and he did a great job on my hip surgery.” -Sarah

“Dr. Snyder is an amazing professional. He diagnosed me and I am better than I ever remember. I will continue to be a patient of Dr. Snyder’s and I highly recommend him to everyone.”

“Dr. Snyder did hip surgery on my son when my son was 18 yrs old and we think he is a great doctor. At some point in the near future my son will need his other hip operated on and we will always return to Dr. Snyder. He has given us the best care and advise and is doing everything he can to prolong the need for hip replacements. I can honestly say I have and will continue to recommend Dr Snyder without hesitation. Great man and great doctor.” – Tiffany H.
