Patient Reviews

I saw Bethanie, who knew immediately what was going on with my knee and what to do about it; she was great. Bethanie, Dr. Burke, Michelle, and the entire practice are wonderful healing angels. I don’t think I would be functioning, walking, and moving if it weren’t for them and their team. They are absolute angels on earth. I would go anywhere for Dr. Burke and Bethanie.

All the staff, from check-in to the x-ray to seeing the PA, helped me have an awesome experience. They all are so very kind and easy to work with. I am not a fan of injections and getting poked with a needle, but Bethanie gave the best injection I have ever had in more than 30 years, which made it easier to schedule my next one. Thank you.

I am so impressed with Dr. Pitt's staff, particularly Katie. I took my daughter for her follow-up appointment and remarked how painful my back was. Katie made an appointment the next day and got me in for x-rays and steroid shots in my back. For the first time in months, I could sleep the entire night. I was impressed with how caring Katie is, not only with me and my medical issues following my knee placement but also with my daughter, who had surgery there a few months ago. Because of the care I was given, I also referred my daughter to Dr. Pitt and his staff.

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.

Andrea took notes and showed care for my treatment. It was evident that she and Dr. Mudd communicated well concerning my treatment plan. She made sure to follow up the same day about anything she needed to consult with Dr. Mudd about. Her clear and concise answers helped my anxiety about how well my hip replacement is healing. Dr. Mudd also showed his patient-focused treatment in talking with me at the end of my appointment.
