I've read the negative reviews about this practice, and frankly, it appears to me that the…read morereviewers were in some alternate reality. My wife and I have BOTH had significant orthopaedic surgery done by several of Lewiston Orthopaedic's doctors, and have had nothing but exceptional medical care and professionalism from both staff and practitioners. Between us, we have had extensive experience with Drs. Hansen, Flock, and Boyea, and our results have been outstanding. My wife has had both knees and hips replaced, with extensive foot and hand surgery, due to arthritic problems. Without the surgeries and exceptional care by this facility, I believe she would have been wheelchair-bound long ago. As it is, in her seventies, she is active and vibrant and literally runs up and down stairs. I have had multiple hand and foot surgeries with Drs. Flock and Boyea, with excellent results. I had a major auto accident many years ago, and have slowly repaired, as best possible, the results of that accident over thirty-plus years, with the last surgery to repair my crushed foot just this October, 2018. Each surgery was performed by Drs. from this practice, and I am very satisfied with the results, beginning clear back with one of the founding Orthopaedic Clinic doctors, Dr. Thorson. By the way, I am a military veteran of Viet Nam, and have never had any indications that my service was disrespected at all by anyone in this practice. Here's a hint, in my personal opinion, based on my own and my wife's experiences: if you are not having or have not had a good experience working as a patient with these doctors and their respective staffs, then you haven't given it your best shot and allowed them to do the same. As a patient, I have responsibilities in my own care as well, and cannot blame doctors if I have not participated actively in my own healing. The first requirement to heal completely is to have the right attitude about doing so, and having realistic expectations for the results. This is a five-star facility; if I could give it six stars, I would.

Today, after enduring four months of foot pain, I finally called and requested an appointment, and I was thrilled that I could be seen today. Taylor Menard examined my x rays and gave me a list of recommendations, all of which I followed, and within hours, the pain I'd had for months had vanished and I could finally walk normally, without limping. The young woman at the front desk was extremely friendly and helpful, and none of the health care providers were condescending or impatient. They carefully explained my options and patiently listed to my questions. I noticed a negative review about staff from nine years ago, and all if can say is that the staff he complained about must have all left; the staff I've met with couldn't possibly be better or more professional. My only request is that it would be nice to have a sign at the main entry of the hospital, because I had trouble finding the office the first time I came in.

His surgery method was as good as it gets, honestly pain free and follow up has been great. He and his staff take their time to answer and explain my questions, are always very friendly and easy to talk to and the environment of the whole office is relaxing and easy to feel at ease. I can't put into words how easy this whole process has been and how satisfied I am with Dr. Hazelwood and his entire staff.
