Patient Reviews

Dr. Doser was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. He accurately assessed my fracture, fully explained the surgery to correct it, and completed the surgery just as he had explained. My post-op visit took exactly 36 minutes from the moment I arrived. Dr. Doser not only removed the old cast himself, but he also personally removed all the stitches and applied the new cast himself. I was impressed with the personal care.

Dr. Mudd saved me from a life of pain and possible addiction to opioids. With me being a high-risk patient he performed my total right hip replacement anyway. I saw several other ortho surgeons who said they would not take my case, but Dr. Mudd did. Thank you, Dr. Mudd! Yeah!

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.

My whole experience has been phenomenal. I’m very pleased with the customer service, the medical assistant, the X-ray technician, and Dr. Nelson. I love that he listened and reviewed my chart prior to arriving. Dr. Nelson also listened to my concerns and had a care plan ready.

Dr. Feinstein is impressive; he listens to you before he tells you what is wrong. He doesn't just walk in and say well this is what we have to do; he will tell you the options you have and explain what has to get done with each choice you have. I love that when doctors do that he even saw me for my hand almost a year after it was healed from my surgery. Dr. Feinstein is the best doctor I've seen in a long time.
