Hip and Knee Specialist

I found Dr Morton through his website which was extremely informative and I learned much about hip replacement surgery. Since I live on Maui, my first visit was via tele-health. I immediately felt a connection with Dr Morton. He is clearly an expert in his field, yet very humble and willing to really listen to me as a patient. He inquired about my wife as a caregiver and he arranged for a visit for her with a neurosurgeon to assess her neck pain. We flew to Oahu for a personal visit where he explained alternatives to surgery and answered every question that came to mind. My hip was so painful that I opted for replacement surgery. His awesome office staff made all the arrangements. The surgery was very successful. He is such a skillful surgeon that I have been recovering with minimal pain. He visited me in the recovery room and again at my hospital room. He is not one of those doctors that does his surgery and moves on to the next patient. He is committed to follow up appointments in the months and years to come. I really wish that there were more than five stars because Dr Morton deserves way more.

I’ve lived with my left hip injury for 34 years since ‘86 or ‘87, I was reluctant to get it repaired after seeing 2 previous surgeons as a child, & in the ‘90 as an adult. The 1st surgeon as a child was reluctant to perform the surgery because he said it was too close the nerves & it’s dangerous, so my parents & I accepted that. The second surgeon as an adult said he wouldn’t recommend it, I was too young & I’ll wear it out by the time I’m 30, so I accepted that answer & gave up. Within the past 3 years, since 2017, my right hip became sore & I thought it was muscle pain & tried to walk it off ignoring my wife’s advice to see a doctor. Finally in 2020 I decide to see my doctor, Dr. Auora Mariani MD, who referred me to Dr. Paul Morton. Come to find out, I wore out my right hip & it wore down to bone on bone, & that was more painful than my already injured left hip.When I first seen Dr. Morton I can see how sincere & anxious to take on this challenge. I remember his words of I like challenges. He seen my CT scan & X rays & I could tell he already had a plan of attack. I finally got the left side done on 28 Nov 2020, & plan to repair the right side after Dr. Morton feels the left side is stable. Taking those walks with the physical therapist Carolina at Queen’s I was amazed how different life is now that my walking has improved. I used to drag my left left leg & turn from the hip to walk instead bending my leg up. I thank God that he has led me to Dr. Morton. I can’t wait till both hips are repaired & then I can finally spend more time playing outside with my 2 boys, helping them with their Judo exercises, & golfing with my father in law. Thanks Dr. Morton. I really can’t thank you enough!

I had great experience with Dr Morton, he spend almost an hour explaining details and options for my hip. I felt like he was first doctor who actually listened to me instead of brushing me off and minimizing my pain. He gave me hope and ideas on what lies down the road. He maybe a young surgeon but he definitely knows what he is doing. I also respect the fact that he had surgical training in Germany and was chosen as one of the top students in his field (I choose carefully my doctors). I like doctors who don’t sugarcoat and tell you upfront what is happening without making it sound too complicated. I would trust him to do my surgery.

Wow! Very impressive doctor!I was shuffled around to 2 other orthopedics due to complications. I was a bit skeptical at first but I read his bio and was blown away by it. Upon first meeting Dr Morton I knew I was in the right hands!! He was very informative, took the time to talk to me about a total hip replacement, dealt with all my allergies and put me right at ease. He is very calm nature, easy to talk to and a wealth of info. I went thru surgery as he is very involved with his patients one on one; which is very unusual nowadays. He is an amazing doctor and I have been so impressed with his bedside manners, caring personality and overall care and concern of my health!! I would highly recommend him. Thanks Dr Morton you are the best.Janet his office staff is very kind and considerate also.

Dr. Morton is an extremely knowledgeable doctor with great experience and education. Knowing he has had three ACL reconstructive surgeries himself and is in great shape and athletic gives me hope in my situation and confidence that he is the right doctor for me. He also took his time explaining my unique situation to me, asked me questions to understand my pain, and I did not feel rushed out.He just moved into this new office at Queens so be patient having to go to another building for x-rays if needed and allow plenty of time to figure out parking. The front desk staff is kind and very helpful as well! Very positive experience overall.

Dr. Morton treated me from July 31st from last year. Lot of fractures and a broken arm. The arm needed surgery.I broke that arm/wrist a while back. It was a difficult surgery because the plate that was previously put in had to be removed. I won’t go into detail about the surgery but the risk were explained to me.Surgery took a while. Only positive result from the procedure. Dr. Morton’s surgical skills are excellent.Dr. Morton is very caring of the patient and knows how to make you feel at ease.The follow up appointments really shows the care and consideration of his staff and himself. They make sure that all after care needs are taken care of. They recommend follow up therapy with JACO, which was also excellent.By far the best Orthopedic surgeon That has worked on me.

First time seeing Dr. Morton at Queen’s POB2. He did my mom’s hip surgery at Kuakini in December 2018 when she had a nasty fall at home. She went into the ER there and he the did the surgery the next day. He has been taken care of her ever since. My mom is 98 years old and he provides excellent care. We highly recommend Dr. Morton!

From my first meeting with Dr. Morton I felt a real connection to him. He was straight up and honest about my medical situation. He did an excellent job with the surgery. He always explained the situation thoroughly but with a caring touch. I would put my hands in his care any time.

Highly recommend Dr. Morton. He’s extraordinarily knowledgeable, professional, passionate, talented and experienced.

Awesome Doc, great staff, very personable, very attentive to your needs, easy to contact and talk with.

DR Morton is very experienced and has s wonderful caring bed side manner always willing to explain or answer questions. Thank you for your care of our family member, Irene.
Wishing you other opportunities to help others in the same way. Thx

Dr. Morton helped my grandmother who really was in a lot of pain with a calm demeanor and was very patient with her (she speaks Korean and had to even translate). He gave her an injection which has lasted and she is still so happy with her interaction.

Very impressive doctor and can't say enough good things about him and the experience I've had so far! He truly takes the time to listen to you!! I was shuffled around to 2 other orthopedics due to complications. I was a bit skeptical at first as I have very high standards for all my doctors but I read his bio and was blown away by it.

The Kona Hospital staff are excellent. I felt very relaxed during my procedure knowing I was in expert hands

A good month Everything is going well so far. After 1 month I can walk and drive, pain is getting less by the day. I hope that my recovery will continue like this!

Very pleasant experience. Staff knows how to communicate to place the patient at ease. It’s an acquired skill, not everyone can do it.

heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering dedication and compassionate care. Thank you for being an exceptional doctor." "Your commitment to patient care and your patients' well-being is truly commendable. Thank you for all that you do as a doctor. The staff is remarkable everyone shows their concerns on the phone and in person.

And I have sent one friend, already I had a great intro… to my surgical experience. Professional people took care of me. I felt comfortable and confident. Great experience… one more knee to go.

Great doctor I had ACL surgery with Dr. Morton six months ago, and I am incredibly pleased with the results. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, Dr. Morton was professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. He thoroughly explained the procedure and addressed all my concerns, making me feel confident and comfortable throughout the process. The surgery was a success, and my recovery has been excellent. Six months later, I’m back to my regular activities with no issues, thanks to Dr. Morton’s expertise and dedication. I highly recommend Dr. Morton for anyone needing surgery.

I recently had a humerus fracture surgery performed by Dr. Paul Morton after Queens Hospital repeatedly delayed my procedure. From the moment I met Dr. Morton, I knew I was in excellent hands. He took the time to thoroughly explain the minimally invasive approach he would use, which put me at ease and gave me confidence in his expertise. His kind and supportive demeanor made a stressful situation much more manageable, and his clear communication ensured I understood every step of the process.

Dr. Morton went above and beyond in his care, providing me with detailed instructions for my recovery and answering all of my questions with patience. His attention to detail and genuine concern for my well-being were evident throughout my entire treatment. My recovery has been smooth and successful (considering all of the pain involved in a humerus fracture) thanks to his skillful surgery and exceptional care. I highly recommend Dr. Paul Morton to anyone in need of orthopedic care.

Having the Kunia office is working great for me. Especially if I have to go to my appointment after work. It's very convenient.

Dr Morton & his team are caring and simply awesome. The new Waipahu office is very conveniently located. I am thrilled with my new hip - 21 days out and I’m walking normally. Thanks to excellence of the Dr and his team.

This doctor is one of the best doctors I have met (and I met a few). He's intelligent, knowledgable, kind, and patient and forthcoming on any questions about the procedure. We are lucky to have him in Hawaii! I respect him and his skills greatly.

I am very pleased with Dr. Morton's care. Bothe Dr. and his staff are thoughtful, courteous and full of Aloha. While it's no fun to have multiple orthopedic problems; I am quite comfortable with Dr Morton's.gentle touch. I would happily refer others to his care. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to state my respect for Dr. Morton's concern, care, and to his staff as well.!​

Dr. Morton and his staff are extremely professional, caring, and efficient! Would highly recommend them.

I saw Dr Paul Morton for a hip replacement and I am happy with my experiences at Honolulu Sports & Spine surgery Center. Dr Morton explained everything before the surgery & answered all my questions. I find him kind, considerate and & genuine and he really made me feel comfortable about the surgery knowing that he is an expert in this type of surgery. Afterward, he came to see me in recovery & was available and checking on me several times. The staff was also very kind and very knowledgeable and I felt I was in good hands with the entire team looking out for my well being. I couldn't have found a more competent & caring doctor. I have nothing but praise for Dr Morton & his team.

I went to an orthopedic in the Waipio area by Costco area where they were to schedule my X-rays and MRI of my knees. I already had this done previously by another Dr. who also recommended sports rehab for my knees. As for the Dr. in Waipio he didn't do anything but from what I understand he billed HMSA for services not rendered. I called the office of Dr. Paul Morton and they scheduled the X-rays in the morning prior to my appointment. When seeing him I explained my situation and he gave me the shots in both of my knees that I needed. Both of my knees feel really great with very little discomfort unlike before. He is a fantastic Dr. that I will be seeing for life. I would highly recommend him for anyone having knee and hip pain and see what he can do for you.

Very informative, great service and friendly staff

As a Veteran serving 27 years in the military, I am so thankful that Dr. Paul Morton is willing to serve Retired Military Personnel through the VA program with his medical expertise. Dr. Morton's staff and medical personnel that assisted him Pre, during and Post surgery were well trained professionals and dedicated. I'm currently in my second day of recovery and able to move about with no pain at all. I'm thankful I did my due diligence and found Dr. Paul Morton. After carefully reading all his Reviews I was impressed and knew he was the right one for me. Thank you Dr. Morton and all your staff: JOB WELL DONE!!

Dr. Morton was very kind and got straight to the point about what was causing pain in my knee. He then explained what he'd do to correct the problem. He explained everything to me and was patient the whole time.I'm definetly having Dr. Morton do my corrective surgery. Blessings to Dr. Morton as well as his staff.

Walked into office and was greeted and took back, no waiting. Less than 10 minutes for Dr Morton to come. Excellent service and caring atmosphere. Would recommend Dr Morton if you need any surgery. Ron M

I have seen at least 4 Orthopedic Doctors in the past, Dr Morton is by far the best one, although I don't know how good his skills and treatments are, but he detailed the treatment options of my knee problems that no other doctors offered me in the past . he always smile, that's a plus, but I was disappointed that he didn't offer GAE procedure and radio frequency treatment for my knee. Still, I think he is a great doctor, I highly recommend it.

Was great very comfortable. Answered all my questions. Looking forward to doing my surgery.

Totally good bedside manner and staffs super super friendly. Addressed my concerns thorough explanation. Very very satisfied I thank the people that referred him to me…♥️♥️♥️

Very happy to have met Dr. Morton, and his staff. It was nice being able to communicate with someone that is willing to put the patient first. My knee feels so much better, I just finished my second walk this morning..3 miles,so far.. Mahalo again for everything....Ricky Murdock

Excellent in communication and knowledge Staff was pleasant and friendly Highly recommended

Thank you for your time and listening. Aging is difficult and facing that your knee will not corporate with your busy schedule and activities is a struggle. Going to the doctor is usually my last decision. Most of this decision is based on denial. Dr. Morton was so patient with me to deal with the struggles with pain and described carefully what was happening with my left knee. The prescribed solution worked. Pain is gone and moving again. He is very professional and appreciative of his knowledge.

Very pleasant staff.

Dr Morton is excellent. My appts are on time and his staff is super friendly and helpful.

Very nice visit. My TKR was quite remarkably pain-free and he took some time explaining that to me.

THEY ARE ALL SO FRIENDLY AN ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS I NEEDED TO KNOW BEFOR MY SURGERY I AM GLAD I MEET DR.PAUL MORTON AN HIS STAFF 👍❤️🤙AN WILL CONTINUE TO SEE HIM AN RECOMENDED MY FAMILY AN FRIENDS.

Great doc. Checked out my knee and went over all the issues. Would definitely recommend.

Dr. Morton and his staff has given me excellent pre-op planning for my knee replacement surgery. They explained what the procedure would be and answered any questions I had. The surgery went well, as expected. Their post-op treatment and follow up support has been great. I would highly recommend Dr. Morton to my friends and family.

Everyone is helpful and nice!

Dr Morton is an exceptional physician focused on making your joints work at their optimum. I’m pre- surgery and he is assisting me with injections to my knees as I await knee surgery in 2024. Don’t hesitate, call Dr Paul Morton and make an appointment today.

Outstanding service - after knee injection received from doctor 2 days ago my knee now feels like I have nothing wrong with the knee, feels like I have full mobility and flexion can walk long distance, up and downstairs, get out and back in bed, bathtub, car and carry large heavy objects with NO pain, stiffness or discomfort. I also just gave direct recommendation to co worker who complains about knee pain from old injury that happened in the past, I gave co worker Doctors business card she should be in contact with your office soon, Thank you again for your services.

I had my first meeting with Dr. Morton via zoom. I found that Morton to be quite knowledgeable as we discussed knee replacements. In addition, he has a well thought out postop pain protocol that he uses. Hopefully he will be replacing my knee soon.

Dr. Morton & his staff are very knowledgeable and his expertise can be trusted to give me the best care!

Always excellent professional service. Highly recommended. Now I can leap tall buildings in a single bound.

I’ve seen Dr. Morton when he performed surgery on both my hips. Trusting his modern techniques, & desire to help patients be pain free, rather than be in it for the money. I see the joy & pride he has in his profession. I am currently seeing him for my knee injury, & he recommended an alternative to surgery. Even though it was a workman’s comp case, he didn’t jump at chance at free insurance money, he thinks of the patient as a person, not as a quick buck. I would definitely recommend this doctor/surgeon to anyone who needs assistance with their hips and or knees. Thanks 🙏🏽 for your help Dr. Paul Morton!

I am so grateful and blessed to come across Dr. Paul Morton, he shown me answered all my questions about my surgery I am home recuperating and I started walking on my first day after surgery and resting when need to. A great big shout out to his staffs and nurses. Mahalo nui loa

Dr. Morton and his staff are wonderful. They connect with their patients. I appreciated that Dr.Morton answered all my husband's questions and managed our expectations. Shout out to Carol who has been a huge assistance on the journey! Berry happy to be his patient!
