Patient Reviews

Over the past year, I have had three appointments with Katie and each time she was very professional, attentive, and caring. She always took the time to listen to my numerous questions and gave me complete and informative answers.

I think very highly of Andrea. She is so heartwarming. She listened attentively to what was going on with my left knee, took notes, and gave me her thoughts on what might be happening. She ordered an MRI, which I could get done immediately, and said she would also discuss it with Dr. Mudd.

Dr. Nelson was very professional. He went through my MRI line by line, discussing every detail and giving his professional opinion on each. No stone was left unturned. He even asked me to follow up with him in one week and also that he would work with my neck and spine doctor, who I'm seeing next week at your facility, to solve my problem. I have already recommended your facility to a family member. Thank you.

Dr. Collard is great. He has helped me control a lifelong knee problem and a recent hand issue. I have been his patient for just under a year, but it’s nice to know I have a reliable orthopedic doctor for the rest of my life.

I saw Andrea in a follow-up visit after knee replacement surgery with Dr. Mudd. Andrea was so helpful and encouraging with all our questions and concerns. I was concerned about my recovery, but after my appointment with Andrea, I feel I’m on track and doing well.
