Dr. Wright’s positive attitude and self-confidence before my surgery were critical for my own mindset in healing. This cannot be overstated. His actions preserved my lifestyle, my family’s joy and my ability to continue to run my business… I healed quicker than I could have expected.

Dr. Scillia is the kindest, greatest doctor around! After years of suffering hamstring pain, he was the ONLY doctor who properly diagnosed it, and then did surgery to re-attach the hamstring to the hip.

He is a genuine doctor, who really cares about his patients.

Dr. Callaghan was my surgeon after a traumatic accident that injured both my legs. I received high quality care from the skilled hands of Dr. Callaghan.

He evaluated my condition carefully and took the necessary steps to eliminate the possibility of infection and did an excellent job with my surgery.

Dedicated, honest, friendly, professional and knowledgeable on the latest techniques. Thank you for a successful experience.

“Such a great group of young, smart surgeons.”

Such a great group of young, smart surgeons. I’ve seen Dr. Callaghan for an TKR and most recently Dr. Pierce for another knee surgery. They are both phenomenal surgeons and their personalities are even better and spend soo much time explaining everything which I love. They have state of the art equipment and a beautiful up to date office. Highly, highly recommend. I’ve sent soo many friends and family to them and they are just as thrilled as I am.

Dr. Scillia and his team are awesome. He is attentive and caring, and put the needs of his patients first. I’m recovering from a successful surgery he performed, and at my post.op visits, he spends the time to address any concerns I may have. He’s an amazing surgeon.
His Clinical Coordinator Alex is also amazing, she responds in a timely manner to any questions you may have. Overall, I am very happy and satisfied with Dr. Scillia, his team and the staff. Thank you all.
