“The Doctor and his staff was amazing. He was very thorough and listened very carefully. He also wanted me to taper my medication off because he was concerned for my GI issues I might come across. Some Dr do not care about side effects. But Doctor Scott shows that he cares. He also explained the next course of steps to get me better. ”

“The office knew exactly what I was expected to do and was helpful with directing me. Dr. Scott was knowledgeable and very sympathetic and did an excellent job. The nurse practitioner, Amy, was quite friendly and fun to visit with, but also efficient in taking care of all the record keeping and so forth. I am very impressed with the overall quality of the visit. I feel that my problem has been addressed and will be in good hands going forth.”

I was able to find an appt in a few days (which is sometimes hard with specialists). The office was easy to get to, easy to check in and short wait. The PA and doctor were both very thorough. I felt at ease, he really listened. I would recommend him to anyone needing an ortho specialist.

I was very satisfied with the friendly and accommodating manner of the receptionists. The physician has been a good listener and has shown sensitivity to the needs presented by the client.
Long wait. Two people who came after me were seen before me. The Physician's Assistant was patient, listened and gave me advice. The time with the doctor was brief. I did select my treatment option.
