Report
Dr. Price performed ACL surgery on my left knee and everything went very well. My family and I are very grateful for DR. Price and his team! Jessa (doctor's assistant) is excellent at communicating! Dr. Price and PA D.Henry thoroughly informed me of how the procedure would go. I recovered sooner than I expected!

Report
Got a referral from my regular doctor for a knee injury that I suffered. Took over a week to get contacted to make an appointment. From then it was over another 3 weeks before I could be seen. Today, the day before my long awaited appointment, I get a call and told that there is some scheduling issues and that my appointment needs to be rescheduled for an even later date. Completely unprofessional and not a place that deserves mine or in my opinion, anyone's else's business.

Been here twice with 2 different PA's for arthritis. Both men were dismissive and unhelpful and not particularly friendly. Employees could use bedside manner training. Will look elsewhere for future treatment.

I've had amazing care from this clinic, both for smaller injuries and for a knee surgery. Dr Wilstein is an excellent surgeon who provides his patients with a full understanding of their options. He also has a great long-term focus; I have early onset OA in my knee, and Wilstein helped me understand how this would look for me in ten or so years, based on different surgeries, treatments, and activity changes.
He tells you what you need to hear, not what he thinks you want to hear. Wilstein was also very attentive to some concerns/anxiety I had prior to surgery, going so far as to call me himself, which I never would have expected from a surgeon in such a busy clinic. I would recommend Dr Wilstein to anyone. Honorable mentions to Wade Hudson, his assistant, and to the surgery nurses Becky and Charlie, who were some of the kindest people I've ever encountered in healthcare.
