I have been there two times at the surgery center within a month for kidney stones removal. The…read moreteam there is great super friendly and caring about my pain and needs. Even though I showed up late today they were understanding and still got me in. Fantastic team and truly great people.

I've waited a few days to write this review in hopes in provides a clear insight to perspective…read moreclients as well as maybe a training opportunity for the staff. If I could leave a 0 star review, I would. I brought my daughter (3 years old) in June 10th to PCI Orthopedics via referral from her pediatrician. She was showing signs of her knee hurting. ER took an xray, nothing visible to them. Pediatrician didn't see anything, which is why she referred to a specialist. We met with Dr. Brown, who by most measures was a very nice man. He said there was a break but it just didn't show on xrays because with toddlers that can take a few days. Okay, fine cast it is. The gals putting on the cast seemed less than informed, talking amongst themselves about what another person would have done to cast her leg, A waterproof liner was used, on my toddler, on her leg. I was told to keep the cast on for 4 weeks. When scheduling, the doctor was going to be gone at the 4 week mark, so had to make it 5 weeks. Fast forward to the 4th week. At this point, the cast has been a nightmare. Water stayed in the cast for HOURS no matter how much I tried to drain or dry it. She also had not slept through the night once since getting the cast (understandably so). At this point, I called PCI July 6th (Monday) to see if anyone else could see her. The receptionist met me with attitude from the start. Monday blues, I get it. She stated they do not transfer patients to different doctors per their policy. I had asked why my daughter then had to have the cast on an additional week strictly because the doctor was on vacation. She transferred me to the nurses line. The nurse I spoke with 100% should not be in healthcare. She asked why I wanted my daughter to see another doctor, and I explained I didn't see a value in her having to wait an additional week just because he was on vacation. Her response was "He's allowed to go on vacation". Correct, he sure is! But that does NOT mean my daughter is required to wait for him. This is a 3 year old we're talking about here. She continuously cut me off, yells at me, and abruptly ends the call. I then call my pediatrician to see where else I could go and they stated the University of Iowa. I call the UofI ortho and they were able to not only see her, but see her that same week July 8th (Wednesday). Oddly enough, within an hour of making that appointment, PCI calls me. Surprisingly enough, they were able to get her to see a different doctor for the same date as the UofI. I declined and let them know under zero circumstances will I ever be back! All this is relevant as the follow up appointment at the UofI proved PCI made wrong decision after wrong decision. First, never should my daughter have ever had the "waterproof" layer. It was only intended for arm casts. Even a basic google search can show that a waterproof liner is not recommended for a full leg cast. My daughter had sores around her knee and her foot from the cast. Secondly, the second xray (4 weeks after the first) showed zero break. HER KNEE WAS NEVER BROKEN!!!! So my daughter was in a cast for 4 weeks at 3 years old AND PCI yelled at me for not wanting to wait an ADDITIONAL week. Not to mention the side effects of having a cast. My 3 year old is now relearning how to walk without her cast. As far as I'm concerned, there was no reason for my daughter to ever have a cast, and to be treated so poorly for asking for it off, 0/10 recommend PCI. I will drive to North Liberty or Iowa City any day rather than come back.
