I was very impressed with Dr. Harding. I had a recent partial thyroidectomy. This was the easiest surgery I've every had, and I've had more than 5 major surgeries. Dr Harding is very professional and answered all questions. Surgery was on time and I was home about 5 hrs later. I had very little pain and it was controlled with a couple Tylenol. It's been a couple weeks since surgery and I can hardly see a scar. I had researched a lot before selecting Dr. Harding and was not disappointed.

I researched many surgeons for my partial thyroidectomy before selecting Dr. Harding. He is highly competent and has had a great deal of experience with thyroid surgeries. I preferred a specialist surgeon like Dr. Harding rather than a general ENT physician who has to attend to many general ENT issues and because of this has less time in an operating room. Excellent pre-op explanation of options and post-op write-up of results. l highly recommend Dr. Harding. Dr. M. Arlin, Vancouver, Canada

I was very happy with the care and attention I received from Dr. Harding. He spent time, explaining my situation, how it would be remedied, made drawings to make sure I understood, he and his staff took very good care of me. Gloria in the post-op care with all the warm blankets I wanted, checking on me for pain, anesthesiologist listening to less is good, the surgical nurse saying to me, "We are going to take very good care of you." and Dr Harding did an excellent job. Oh, and I liked his shoes.

Excellent surgeon. He is considered to be one of the best surgeon for the procedure I had, a total thyroidectomy. My wife is a retired RN and was totally impressed .

Dr. Harding was very thorough in his explanation of my problem and the procedure he would perform. He checked my thyroids, as well as my parathyroids prior to the parathyroid surgery. The surgery went perfectly well and I have a very small scar, which probably will not show after complete healing.

Dr. Harding is a very pleasant Man, very personable , easy to talk to and explains things so that you understand them. My experience was one of the most pleasant in my 72 years. Made me feel comfortable and treated me very respectful. Thank you so much!

Dr. Harding is the best physician I've used. He scheduled and spent a surprising amount of time to explain my planned surgery in detail, and answered every one of my many questions. On the day of surgery, he had every potential issue covered, and spent extra time during the operation when unexpected challenges arose. Post-open follow up was just as thorough as pre-op, and I feel I couldn't have been in better hands. Highly recommended.

Dr. Harding is the best Thyroid Surgeon! I needed a partial removal of my thyroid. He explained the procedure to me thoroughly before the operation. After the procedure, I stayed at the hospital overnight. I never experienced any pain, days later I was back to my old routine. I am 72 years old, It's now been 25 days since I had the procedure done and I feel great. I recommend Dr. Harding, he is the best!

Dr. Harding was very impressive. He was kind and reassuring when telling us that my spouse needed surgery. He was thorough in his explanation. He gave us options and did immediate diagnostic testing at our first appointment in his office. His staff was also very pleasant and competent. Excellent experience all around.
