What our Patients Are Saying

Super friendly and just a fun atmosphere all around. Dr McCarthy has been one of my favorites for years. Remembered my name and what I do from the last time I saw him 7 years ago. He performed a hand and shoulder surgery on my back in 2011 that I haven't had issues with since. Super staff and awesome Dr.

Jess has such a passion to help her patients that is hard to find in healthcare. I came to the realization today that I had given up. She alone reignited my passion to fight, reiterating what it is we’re fighting for and why. The fight is about me, my health and my quality of life, proving that I’m not alone in this fight. Thank you Jess, for being in this fight with me and for me till the end!
TJ M.

These hips don’t lie! Dr Phillips did a great job! I’m two weeks post op and on track and can already see my freedom of movement returning. I can get in and out of my chair almost like a normal human! Thanks to all involved!

The Dr's. have always shared my xrays with me and showed me exactly what they are talking about. They always have given me the least invasive option to the to the that may involve surgery. Dr's. run through all pros and cons and make sure I understand this my decision to make. I have recommended the clinic to several others.
Mary N.
With the exception of the patient registrar I would rate the visit a 10. Dr Otterberg was cordial and professional, as usual and I was in and out in an efficient amount of time. I had to greet the registrar who did not even look up at me and was very robotic in her manner as if she were too busy to bother with me. I would rate her a 3 and that's generous. I was a registrar before I retired and I would never treat a patient as she did.

Before and after my surgery everyone at MD WEST ONE took care of me, made sure I was comfortable and after each visit I received a call making sure everything was going good and if I had and concerns. Definitely 5 star's. Dr. O’Malley was great and did great work.
Colt P.
The nurse was superb. He was so happy and so cheerful. He really made my day better. Dr Miller was, as always, wonderful. Thank you all for a great visit.
Diana C.
Those helping me were very professional. Dr O'Malley was great, personable and kind. I trust him and his recommendations. This was my second visit. The first visit was the same except for the receptionist in the second window. I felt ignored while standing waiting for her to acknowledge me. And she was rude when she finally looked at me. So my first impression wasn't good but the rest of the visit went well.

Dr.Gaffney at MD West One is my favorite orthopedic doctor. He’s done a few surgeries on my wrists and is very empathetic and compassionate. He always listens and answers all my questions. He never makes me feel like an annoyance. His bedside manner is unmatched. I highly recommend Dr.Gaffney for shoulder, arm, hand care. The staff at MD West One is always friendly.

Was referred to MD West one from another clinic where I was seen for my hip. I was able to get in right away and was seen by PA Julie and Dr Doran . I really liked them both. Julie took time to listen to my complaints and found cause and the same for Dr Doran. I’ve been to several doctors to try to find the cause of my pain, Vein specialist and hip specialist but I think I may finally get the relief and solution to my issues. I would recommend them both
Madelaine A.
I was having mobility issues this day but they had wheelchairs available for my use. The check in staff was fabulous and made me feel welcome. Doctor wanted a new X-ray of my leg and that was done quickly and with care for my comfort. Dr Mantone spent time with me and showed concern about my current issues. Wonderful experience.
Cathy M.
Dr. Phillips is very patient while addressing your concerns. He talks to you, not at you. Nice staff. Surgery in the future so no comments on that yet.

The only downside was the wait—I waited almost an hour to be seen. The rest of the visit was great. Staff friendly, doctor explained things very well.
Cheryl G.
I have rarely experienced the smooth and friendly service that I get at this medical office. Such a perfect balance between professionalism and personability! They are efficient, but I don’t feel like I’m a cog in a wheel. The doctor always has time to answer my questions. All around, a very comfortable, satisfying experience as a patient.
