He has an excellent demeanor, great office organization and easy to understand explanation of what to expect before and post surgery. I have been searching for top notch orthopedic surgeon for my hip replacement and was glad to zero in on him. He patiently listens and first surgeon I have seen, who actually empathized with my pain, (rare occurrence in doctors in his field) but he also doesn’t sugarcoat. He has exceptional training and education, which is very important to me. He uses latest technology to make sure your prosthetic device will last longer. I was researching everything on my case and found him to be the best men for the job so to speak. I am confident I can trust him. It’s tough to live with chronic pain and I’m glad he has given me hope.

I am doing so much better and have made such progress that I'm almost back to being my active self of long ago - even before knee replacement surgery.

I've been getting cortisone shots in both knees from Dr. Morton every three months. The pain control allows me to move more easily and sleep better. In the last year, I started taking three online exercise classes. I do them seated, but I move my legs, too. Dr. Morton referred me to Dr. Jodi Nishida of The Keto Prescription. I've lost 67 lbs. so far and have at long last conquered my sugar cravings. I eat more healthily than I ever have. I'm working toward losing about 33 lbs. more, at which point I can have knee replacement surgery. Surgery on the right knee is scheduled for late July, followed by replacement of the left knee three months later. After surgery my goal is to lose at least 50 lbs. more.

Dr. Morton also referred me to Dr. Daniel Burdick, a pain management specialist. He gives me pain control shots in my left hip. The joint has eroded because I can only walk while keeping my right knee straight. It is possible I may also need to have my right hip replaced in the future.

Dr. Burdick sent me to aquatherapy, which I really enjoyed. I'm waiting to hear if insurance will approve some more sessions. In the meantime I'm doing additional exercises on my own to try and be as physically ready for surgery as I can.

When I saw Dr. Morton's ad on KIKU a little over a year ago, by the end of the commercial, I knew he was the orthopedic surgeon I needed to see. I was right. read less

I’m happy to share that with the help of Dr Paul Morton I’m almost back to my very active lifestyle! My surgery was on 11/30 and after just 12 weeks I’m already back to trail running, surfing and doing plyometrics! Getting back on the mats for Jiu Jitsu and hitting mits/heavy bag will have to wait a few more months. The bone will obviously have to heal a bit more before it can withstand those types of stresses. I can’t say enough about how friendly and professional Dr Morton and his staff were and if you happen to have any type of knee or hip injury, you should give his office a call and come in for an appt… you won’t be disappointed!

She endured the pain, because she was afraid she would be in more pain after the surgery and was afraid it wouldn't relieve her knee pain.
At her consultation, Dr. Morton explained how surgery would help her have a better quality of life. He was also honest to say that it's not a 100% guarantee, but he showed a confidence that made us feel confident in his surgical skills.
Post surgery, my mom went home the same day, after the anesthesia was wearing off. My mom was amazingly strong, but I also think it was partly due to the skillful hands of Dr. Morton.
He checked up on her before and after surgery and also called to check up on her at home.

That's... read moreDirect anterior total hip arthroplasty is a technically demanding procedure; each step plays a critical role in the outcome. That's why choosing the best of the best of orthopedic surgeons is vital for positive outcome of new hip longevity and excellent recovery.
I took my time looking and researching whom I can trust my hip and chose Dr. Morton.
He is professional, compassionate, patient, kind and highly intelligent. I chose him initially based on his resume, I wanted top orthopedic surgeon at the hight of his carrier who has been trained abroad and has been chosen to be one the best in his field.
Ask someone with arthritis of the hip who could no longer flex their hip and back to allow them to sit in a chair, who no longer can stand up and walk without pain what sort of difference was made by a total hip replacement. Nobody but an orthopedic surgeon does that kind of surgery. What they do is very concrete. You can see, feel and touch in one way or another in orthopedics. There's not much looking at reams of test results, and "when all else fails, examining the patient" is what Dr Morton does. He listens and doesn't dismiss his patients pain!
I had my total hip replacement surgery 6 weeks ago and must say I woke up pleasantly surprised.
The length of my incision was only 4 inches on the front side of my right hip. Very happy with it! No staples, surgical glue and very neat scar.
The advantage of the direct anterior approach over traditional approaches is that an intermuscular, internervous tissue plane is used. This mean that rather than cutting muscles and tendons to access the hip joint, natural tissue planes are used, allowing the muscles to be moved, rather than cut.
Surgery lasted a little over an hour, as soon as I woke up I noticed my old joint pain was gone! The pain I would have afterwards was typical post surgical pain of healing controlled by pain pills.
Doctor Morton came to check on my incision few hours after surgery and then every morning till I was discharged from hospital.
I was walking with a walker and doing light PT exercises same day after my hip replacement!
First 2 weeks were the hardest and now it's better and better every day! I can't believe I'm going to have my life back and on top of that I have extended my life span by improving quality of my life. I'm only 44 but I was feeling like I was 90 due to my crippling hip pain. I can't thank enough Doctor Morton for giving me this gift, he is truly amazing surgeon of hip arthroscopy. I have been recommending him to everyone I know on Maui who has issues with hips or knees. Flying to Oahu is a small price of inconvenience for great surgeon and new hip! read less

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. read less

My knees were already at... read moreOver the decades, my love of sports has resulted in severe osteoarthritis in both knees. My knees were already at end-stage when I was diagnosed about 18 years ago. Until recently I went to another orthopedic surgeon who would not consider any short-term relief measures. The pain and resulting lack of sleep became so bad that I was close to needing a wheelchair and was trying to figure out how I could take early retirement, given I was barely functional. I first saw Dr. Morton a month ago. He listened to me and respected my input while providing his expertise. Together we came up with plans for the short- and long-term. He gave me cortisone shots in both knees (something the other doctor would not consider). The difference has been remarkable. Within three days, the pain was gone. I sleep at night so I'm sharper and more focused and productive during the day. The spark is back in my eye. I'm no longer thinking about wheelchairs or early retirement bur rather I'm thinking about making up for lost time. I know the effects of the cortisone are temporary. The shots don't work for everyone. But it's one tool and there are others. Going the pain management and weight loss clinics to which he referred me will hopefully help get me to a point where I can have knee replacement under the best conditions for success. Since I'm able to move more freely now, I've lost five pounds in the last month. I can't predict the future - I don't know how things will turn out - but I am grateful that Dr. Morton has given me hope, which is something I haven't had in a very long time. He's a wonderful doctor, and a wonderful person, too, and I highly recommend him. read less

When I was diagnosed about 18 years ago, the osteoarthritis was already so bad that it was end-stage, and I was told I would eventually need knee replacements.

My condition deteriorated so much in the last three years that I could barely walk or take stairs. Constant pain kept me from sleeping. I was always exhausted and barely able to function. I didn't have much of a life anymore. I didn't know how much longer I could hold out before I would need to start using a wheelchair. The emotional toll was rough, too. I am used to being an active person and my brain wanted to go but my body would not cooperate.

In late 2019 I went back to the orthopedic surgeon I had been seeing. It was a last-ditch plea for help. I won't go into details, but it wasn't good. We never saw eye-to-eye but things were so bad at that last appointment it was clear we would have a mutual parting of the ways.

Not long ago I saw an ad on KIKU about a doctor who uses robotics during knee and hip surgery for better outcomes. Usually I fast-forward the DVR through ads, but I watched this. By the end, I knew this was the person I needed to see. And boy, was I right.

Dr. Morton is clearly an expert, but he is not condescending. He is confident and assured, but not arrogant. He listens to his patients and works with them, rather than lecturing and being paternalistic. He is kind. It's a bonus that he is a Hawaii boy who attended the John A. Burns School of Medicine.

Together we came up with a plan that will hopefully get me to the optimal conditions for knee replacement and should provide relief until I get there. During my first visit, he gave me cortisone shots in both knees, something the previous doctor would not consider. The results have been amazing. No more pain or stiffness. I don't have to hang onto door frames, door knobs, or walls when I get up in the morning. I can get up and down from a seated position without assistance. With no pain, I started sleeping more soundly and for more hours. I am awake and alert during the day. I haven't had this much energy since I was in my 30s. I've done more cleaning in the past few days than I was able to do in the past six months. I love to walk and can finally do so without pain. Because I can move freely again, I've lost three pounds since last week, when I got the shots.

I know the effects of cortisone don't last forever, and it doesn't work for everyone, but it has made a tremendous difference for me. I am so thankful that Dr. Morton is willing to try various short-term solutions until I can get knee replacements. My previous doctor would not consider any of them. I suffered needlessly for years. I have the chance to have an active life again, and I'm not wasting that chance. If you have knee and / or hip problems, I recommend Dr. Morton without hesitation. I'll be forever grateful for his help and kindness. read less

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. Young knowledgeable and loves a challenge. 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, thoroughly explained everything in detail beyond my expectations and dealt with all my allergies to 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 for my health!! I would highly recommend him.

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. read less

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! read less

Dr. Morton took a look at my wrist because it had a huge lump that was steadily growing. It really concerned me because eventually it became painful to type on the computer or twist my wrist even just to write with a pen/pencil. He was super honest and shared his speciality is hips and knees... so he referred me to his equally talented practice partner Dr. Aimee Perreira whose speciality is hand and wrists.

While some doctors are money centric by doing surgeries themselves by going outside their speciality, Dr. Morton did not do that (when he easily could have). He keeps the patient in mind by partnering them with his fellow practice partners that specialize in the area that the patient needs.

I now have full range of motion of my right wrist without any pain.

Now if I have hip or knee problems in the future, Dr. Morton will be my specialist to see!
