Services
To improve our ability to help you, it is essential we review any information pertaining to previous diagnosis or treatment of your injury. All previous medical records must be sent to East Mesa Orthopedics prior to an initial visit or hand carried to the appointment. If these medical records are not available at the time of the initial visit, the appointment may need to be rescheduled.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) combines a powerful magnetic field with an advanced computer system and radio waves to produce accurate, detailed pictures of organs, soft tissues, bone and other internal body structures. Differences between normal and abnormal tissue is often clearer on an MRI than CT.
Before your surgery, you will receive a phone call from the surgical pre-operative staff regarding preoperative instructions/pre-op instructions. Listen very carefully and take notes so that you do not forget anything. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight prior to your surgery. This includes water and coffee.
General anesthesia is used in most surgical cases. The risks and benefits will be discussed in the pre-operative area with the anesthesiologist prior to surgery. If "regional" anesthesia was used for your surgery (the anesthesiologist gave you an injection that made your entire limb "numb"), you will have received instructions from your anesthesiologist, particularly about length of time the block will last for you.

After reviewing many Orthopedic doctors and calling a few for an appointment, the staff at Dr. Hatfield's office were extremely caring and efficient in arranging an appointment for me. Staff then sent a very detailed check list and information I needed to prepare for my appointment.
My appointment with doctor Hatfield was very caring and informative.
He is requiring a MRI for a more detail look at my injury, so I am now in the process in arranging that to be done.

Dr. Hatfield and his assistant Barb always do a great job! They have always been good at keeping their appointment times and take their time to listen to their patients and answer their questions. They also have very positive attitudes and are pleasant to talk with.
Their office staff also does an excellent job. They too meet you with a smile and are pleasant to talk with, in addition to being very quick and well prepared when you approach them.
My wife and I both have undergone surgeries with Dr. Hatfield; her with a knee replacement and me with shoulder surgery. In both cases, he did a fantastic

I forgot x-rays and paperwork but East Mesa allowed me to go home, get the necessary items and be 30 minutes late for my appointment. I was taken in quickly and had a good visit with the doctor who agreed with what I suggested. He took care of my concerns.

This Dr and Office is the easiest to work with. You call they answer they talk to you and they will set things up or get back to you. Dr Hatfield has done a scope on my knee and also has replaced my Knee. Did Great work. Also when talking him or his office staff they never talk down they are real people also. You couldnt do any better that setup to see them.

I hadn't seen Dr. Hatfield in many years and I went back to see him for tendinitis in my elbow. He gave me a cortisone shot and said to come back if it started to bother me again. I was in and out in less 15 minutes! No long wait like at other Ortho doctors and he was thorough, personable and treated my elbow pain. I had gone to another doctor previously and all he said was to do a stretch and my tendinitis would go away. Well, it didn't. Glad I went back to Dr. Hatfield!

Dr. Hatfield has been treating me for a couple of years. He is precise in his explanation and the treatment has kept my torn Rotator Cup under control. The staff is very efficient.

I would have rated them 5 stars, except they referred me to an MRI facility that does not accept Medicare. Dr. Hatfield is really diligent about carefully explaining all the risks and benefits of knee replacement surgery. I felt heard, listened to and well informed by the end of my visit with him. The staff are kind and welcoming. Very clean and comfortable office.

Always friendly and caring! I see Hatfield everytime and his performed surgery on each of my knees. Tried to do everything he could do to prevent me from having to get surgery but did it when nothing else was working. Great bed side manners with the surgery and even in the office. I moved to Hidden Valley and will make the hour to hour and a half drive vs seeing anyone else.
