Dr. Evanich replaced both of my knees last summer 5 weeks apart. The process was so well organized and couldn’t have gone better. Dr. Evanich was great and Kelly, Tammy, Eric, and Brad in PT were very helpful throughout my recovery. I did develop a reaction/infection to the bandage following the second knee surgery and even though it was over the weekend, Dr. Evanich and his staff were on top of it by calling me and making sure I had the prescriptions I needed called in. Dr. Evanich went well beyond the call of duty to get the bandage removed and replaced with a different bandage. Will be having a hip replacement next and have complete confidence in Dr. Evanich and his staff for that.

Thank you, Dr. Evanich, Eric, and Tammy for taking such wonderful care of my mom! Your team expedited the surgery process and because of that, my mom did not have to suffer in pain from her fractured hip for very long. She is now on the road to recovery and I know she will do great, thanks to you. Five star treatment from the very best!

I had a full knee replacement with Dr. Evanich. The process is amazing, with pre-surgery education, surgery in the morning and home in the afternoon. Follow up physical therapy and check-ins. I was amazingly well cared for and Dr. Evanich has given me my life, and mobility, back.

The 2 times I went, I couldn’t believe how fast I was in and out, with exceptional care. Dr. Evanich was professional, courteous and informative very caring doctor. Staff was all knowing, the whole place seemed to work like clockwork. Would definitely recommend them!
