“Excellent service & excellent results!!!
Thanks”
– Coleta W.
“I am a snowbird from Ohio. Several years ago I had a problem with one of my knees. I googled and found Orthopedics Associates. I checked out their website and doctors and made an appointment. They saw me the next day. I was very impressed with the friendliness of the front desk. I waited 5 minutes and was taken to a room to explain my symptoms. The assistant was efficient and knowledgeable. Within minutes I was taken for X-rays. The tech was so,kind and easy with me knowing I was in pain. I was taken back to the room and the doctor read my X-rays and came in and introduced himself and shook my hand. He explained why I was having my problem and what we could do about it. I chose a steroid injection. The assistant prepped my knee, the ultrasound tech assisted while the doctor did the injection. The doctor bid me goodbye and to call,any time Orthopedic services were needed. Everyone had a smile on their face and really looked and acted like they loved their jobs. It was refreshing. Since this visit, I have been back every year to see Dr. Thackery. I have also seen Dr. Watt for both of my hands. He is so great! As a matter of fact he will be doing surgery on my right hand. I am very comfortable with that and have all,the faith in he world in him and his staff. I must have a huge amount of trust if I come all the way from Ohio to have my surgery! Take my word for it, this place is fantastic. The best part; you feel better when you leave.”

“I have had the best of care, everyone at the office has been great. I have told several people about orthopaedic Associates. I have been very satisfied with the knee replacement and after care. Scarring is minimal, I have great definition in my knees. I am no longer bowlegged because DR Thackery straightened my legs during the surgery. Can't wait to go to my 6mth check up to show Dr Thackery how I have recovered. Looking forward to getting back to fishing in my kayak. I have bought a bicycle and started to ride again and started my walking routine again.
Thank you for your great care.”
