I really enjoyed every part of the process from the first apt. The surgery I had was to correct 4 toes that decided to go every direction but straight.

Looking forward to correcting the other foot and walking my neighborhood, finally!!

The conversations were always centered on fix the complaint but the cause of the complaint. Having had six shoulder surgeries - "non weight bearing" is not an option in my life. I also chase around a 2-year-old granddaughter almost daily. I was referred to Dr. Nunez by a friend he had recently operated on. Having worked in the medical field for over 20 years - I have very high standards for medical offices. The office is clean. The staff is very personable and attentive. After having a fairly in-depth conversations with Dr. Nunez and learning he believes that you don't fix the problem the complaint comes back. He spoke my language. Dr. Nunez operated on my left foot March 1. I walked out of the office post op. It went so well I scheduled my right foot for early June. I would also like to add - after hours communication is excellent. I highly recommend seeking out Dr. Nunez for foot surgery. I am forever thankful for his skills.

Everyone at MWOS was great from the moment we checked in. The receptionist was very friendly and discreet when it was needed. My nurse, Cathy, was awesome She took great care of me, again explaining everything she was doing and why. I needed some special assistance at one point before going in for surgery and she handled it professionally and, again, with discretion. She also took care to include my husband in all conversations as did everyone who talked to me before surgery. The nurse who took care of me in recovery was great! I think her name is Wendy. Made sure I was comfortable and coming out of it well. The nurse who wheeled me out to the car whose name I didn't catch was also very friendly and made sure I was moving correctly when getting into our Jeep. Everyone here was awesome! I highly recommend NWOS and Dr. Moss. I have not had one bad experience there with anyone and am looking forward to having my right hip done there as soon as I can.

I'm told by a different orthopedic surgeon that I will need to get a specialized leg brace which I may have to wear for a year in order to get back to where I was before the surgery by Dr. Thompson.

The first response to pain help request was "I wasn't in enough pain because my voice didn't show enough pain over the phone." My caregiver and I were shocked at the response. At 6 weeks, I visited my regular doctor who gave me a list of questions to ask at the upcoming appointment. Dr. Scott dodged all questions, saying "everyone is different". Being different should not mean refusing to address the problem. Since then, my regular doctor team has managed the pain and more recently with an ultrasound and MRI has found swelling and post surgical changes. The ultrasound showed a large blood clot causing the swelling. These tests are pretty basic to rule out serious things like blood clots that can cause strokes. I am so grateful that my regular team of doctors are more interested in solving health problems than ignoring them. The stroke will take 2-3 months to dissolve and I don't know about post surgical changes treatment yet. I do know there is at least one other former patient with the same bad treatment facing a repair surgery. I wonder why Dr. Scott isn't working at Providence anymore or doing them in Spokane.

The surgeon PA points to X-rays they took and says well this isn't an easy fix like I'm assuming you think you will be getting. I just sat there because I was there to find out what was wrong.
