Patient Reviews

The experience exceeded my expectations. Dr. Feinstein was thorough during the initial visit. He was friendly and explained what was expected during surgery and post-op. I also needed an unexpected follow up for complications and was able to see the nurse practitioner. She was also pleasant and easy to talk to. I would recommend them to anyone in need of an orthopedist.

I have had several pains and have gone to several different doctors and hospitals without success. I have been amazed by Bethanie. She asked some questions, listened to my concerns, and discussed options. I felt comfortable with the plan. I'm on a positive path. Finally, I have goals to reach, and I am moving without pain.

Dr. Collard is incredibly professional, informative, and positive. He is an excellent surgeon. We have connected with him over the past 15 years for many of our family's needs. Thank you, Orthopedic Associates.

Dr. Thomas is the best doctor I've ever had. He is charming, professional, and doesn't beat around the bush. I recommend Dr. Thomas to my family, friends, or anybody who needs a good surgeon. He is honest, upfront, and good at what he does. God gave him a gift, and I thank him for what he has done for me.

This is my third hip shot, and I've been treated professionally each time. The x-ray technician, Bethanie, and Dr. Mitchell were very pleasant. I also have other injections by Bethanie and never hesitate to come to her again. I'm happy with Orthopedic Associates.
