Busy office, but very organized, Appointments are approximately 15 minutes late, which is very good for a medical practice. Everyone who took part in each of my appointments was friendly and answered my questions. Doctors do not rush in and out, but take whatever time is needed to discuss treatment.

South Hills Orthopedic Surgery is the best doctor visit I literally have ever had. The staff and physicians are very kind, responsive and I have never had a long wait period. They do respect your time. The physicians are very thorough and do take the time necessary to answer all your questions. I am never going to another ortho again. They simply give you a very good experience.

Bethany was very helpful in answering all my questions in a very kind and informative way. She explained things thoroughly, providing me with valuable information about my situation. I very much appreciate that she allowed as much time as I needed. I left the appointment with a much better understanding and less anxiety regarding my physical issues and with valuable information regarding medical procedures available in the future should they become necessary.

Jeff's manner is considerate, careful, and confirming. He explained clearly the therapy steps I should follow and even showed me my x-rays so I could see what was going on inside. I could hardly feel my stitches being removed! Thank you.
