I've gotta say that this place and staff far surpasses Northwest Ortho who I had to fire for terrible/non existent aftercare. Here, they accommodate you and really take the time to show compassion for your needs after surgery. I cannot say enough about the great level of cooperation I've gotten here. Fantastic people. I highly recommend them for outstanding aftercare and PT support. Rock on.

I have suffered for many years with disabling knee pain. Diagnosed as bone on bone in both knees from a long career of outdoor work and play. After being seen by a competing office and getting poor service, difficulty getting scheduling, difficulty contacting scheduling, and the surgeon being rude. What an amazing experience I have had at Orthopedic Specialty Clinic. Dr David Scott has assembled a team of professionals to achieve a surgical success for me.
From the friendly staff at reception to the hard working nursing, administration, and PT staff. This facility is the premier surgical joint repair office in Spokane. I followed the protocol for the surgery and achieved a truly fantastic result after just 6 weeks with the help of this special group of medical professionals. I wouldn't go anywhere else for this surgery.

I'm not posting on my experience at this place. I saw the commercial and nowhere where did I see anything on Stem Cell therapy. I would rather stay away from surgery. I was limping an DC went to an orthopedic Dr. Not a real good experience I saw the physician assistant ant and g we said I had allot of life in my ankle Then I took antinflamitories and the pain went away. Then on a follow up they tried to throw the physicians assistant at me.
I requested the Ortho Dr Then he said my ankle is wore out to take antinflamitories until that quits working. Then steroid shots until that quits working. Then ankle repl a cement. I nstantly did stem cell therapy. now I don't have to take Un healthy antinflamitories and steroid shots and be limited with ankle replacement. On a third visit I told TY he Dr what I did and I don't have to take antinflamitories.
He pressed where it was hurting before a ND no pain. He said it looks like it worked to kep doing what you are doing. I can do anything I want. it changed my life but I didn't see anything about stem cell on the commercial.

Both knees working with full operation and range of motion. This was an unbelievable experience, each knee a year apart. I walk for a living, and now without pain. Thank you, Thank you OSC.

Absolutely great experience, start to finish. Far exceeded my expectations. After 3 weeks I was on the treadmill and taking stairs. At 5 weeks, walking with no pain 2 miles a day. Surgery could not have gone better and PT at the Doctors office is a must. The PT team was in daily/weekly consult with the Doctor and pushed me right to my limits every visit and ensured I was on track. The at home "tools" were a key. I would HIGHLY Recommend Dr Scott and his entire team.

After one year I am able to do anything I want and at 77 that's important. Dr Scott went out of his way during COVID to be sure I had my surgery in a timely manner. The staff has been great. Be sure to follow up with PT. In talking with others it has made all the difference. Thank you Orthopedic Specialists for keeping me mobile.
