Great experience. The staff is friendly and helpful. The wait time is not long at all. Every time I go, I'm greeted with a smile.

2 years ago I fractured the head of my femur and am an avid runner. Dr. Bonsell was very attentive and answered all the questions I had before surgery. I was very impressed with the facility, I had both Xrays and MRI at the office on my initial visit. I was in/out of the office for several follow ups, Denise helped a ton with scheduling me. Everyone in the office was friendly and I felt in safe hands. I highly recommend!

I had a partial knee replacement on Mar. 21 from doctor Shawn C. Bosnell. I was off crutches in 2 weeks and he did an outstanding job. My knee is stronger than ever. I am very thankful for Dr. Bonsell and his associate Brett. This doctor does outstanding work.
