“During a Racquetball tournament my knee swelled up huge and even after days of icing and rest I could not get the swelling down.  Met with the team at Creekside Surgery Center and scheduled a needed surgery and went on to play later in the US Nationals with my wife.  I was impressed with the center and my surgeon, thanks.” ~ Joe Law, Anchorage

Extremely pleased with Creekside Surgery Center, very professional, courteous, and caring staff. Could not have asked for more!! ~ P. A. H.

Creekside surgery center is a superb facility. I, after a fairly severe truck accident, as well as a bad fall on the ice, ended up at Creekside for eight separate orthopedic surgeries within five years. Each time I went in for a procedure I was treated with the utmost care and compassion. ~ John W. Gaskins
