“I have always had a great experience at bone and joint. The doctors and staff are all really helpful, listen closely to my issues and provide exceptional care.”

“All the staff was awesome, from checking in, to the nurse, xray and Dr that saw me. I had moved to Thompson Falls in June and was worried about my knee condition and who to trust, I think my need for cortisone injection in my left knee lead me to the right place! Super thanks to your staff that are amazing folks that seem to really care!”

“I have lived in Houston, TX and Seattle. I think the care I received at the Walk-in Clinic of your facility was the best I have ever experienced. I am 75 years old with lots of experience.”

“The staff were positive, courteous and very efficient. The PA was informative and descriptive about my injury, and about managing my expectations for recovery. Overall a very good experience that I shared with family and friends.”

“I have been there dozens of times, never had a Doctor or Assistant that has been less than professional in my care. The office staff are excellent and professional in their dealings with me and my needs. An A Number 1 operation. Thank you!”
