Kaden does a great job and is thorough. He also answers all my questions.


Dr. Parkey, hands-down, always provides the best care for my kids.


I feel very comfortable with Dr. Eggleston as my primary. She listens to me and asks me any questions about my concerns. I feel confident in her knowledge and like her as a person.


I appreciated everyone explaining what they would be doing and took the time to make me as comfortable as possible.


I received very good care and enjoyed my visit with Dr. Beardsley.


I love seeing Dr. Eggleston. She is great.


I was treated by Kaden and Dr. Flock for a dislocated toe. They both seemed thorough and attentive in treating my injury. I am hopeful that, with time, my toe and foot will heal.


Dr. Hansen is helpful in responding to the problems that you come in with... everyone is very helpful. He even has taken great care of my husband. Thanks.


I enjoyed my visit with Dr. Washington.


All aspects of the surgery, as well as the pre and post op service was handled in the highest level of integrity and professionalism by all members of the staff which I came in contact with.


Kaden Thueson explained how my knee is healing and expectations of my new knee. I appreciate how he described the function and how long the healing may take. My pain from the arthritis is gone. Now just healing the muscles. I appreciate your efforts in helping me enjoy life again.


Each provider I have seen over the last 17 years has always made me feel like I was their priority and gave me the best care. Dr. Ripley is no exception. Additionally, the support staff have always been friendly and helpful.


Dr. Hansen was extremely patient with my many questions and comments. He was personable and friendly, not to mention calming to someone who talks a lot and is, let's say high energy. I appreciated the sharing of medical info and the excellent chair-side manner.


Kaden Thueson, P.A. is professional, friendly, excellent care.


First, they provide the patient with as much information as they can and second, very personable experience. And with as busy as the office gets they gave me time to express concerns and talk me through this process.


Dr. Mallory was very educated, listened to my needs, and treated my problem. I went to the doctor's visit with pneumonia, she treated it with a shot and medication and told me what to do if I wasn't better in a day or two.


After having my previous doctor leave, I was a bit nervous about getting a new one. The staff understood my concerns and that I wished only to be seen by a female doctor, and they got me in with Dr. Mallory quickly. Dr. Mallory and her nurse were amazing, and they could tell I was a bit anxious to be there. They did all they could to make me feel comfortable and safe. I will continue coming to see Dr. Mallory for any future appointments.


Greg and his nurse are always courteous, friendly and efficient; also willing to answer any of my questions in a clear way that makes it easy to understand. I have found all of the staff, including those working in the reception area, to be especially courteous and helpful.


Personable and knowledgeable. Explained the variables while explaining a sensible path forward.


Again and again, Dr. Watson meets and exceeds any of my expectations, from addressing concerns and questions to explaining whys and hows for procedures and medical decisions moving forward. I cannot thank him enough.


Very pleasant. Was pleased with advice for keeping swelling and pain down.


Dr. Ripley is always willing to listen to what I say and is always there to help me.


Friendly kind, informative caring over all the whole staff was a pleasure. Thank you!


Kaden Thueson has always been very pleasant and professional. Also very knowledgeable. I learned a few things from him. It is always a pleasure to be treated at your clinic. Everyone is very caring.


Sarah was a professional, a good listener, and very caring. She took care of the issue I came there for.


I underwent a Total Hip Replacement at Tri-State Hospital with Dr. Regan Hansen and Bret Paulson, along with the rest of the surgical team, all of whom took the time to introduce themselves and make me feel comfortable. Dr. Hansen had been seeing me for a year prior to surgery for my hip issue. We knew that surgery was inevitable but Dr. Hansen let me chose when that would happen. The treatment prior to and the surgical procedure itself was a huge success. Six weeks after surgery with the added bonus of Physical Therapy, I am back to nearly all of my normal activities.


Dr. Washington is an extremely caring provider. You can tell he wants the best for his patients. His staff is knowledgeable and efficient. They were able to answer any questions I had. I have and will continue to recommend him to people.


Dr. Jelinek was my doctor but Mike was my P.A. They were both excellent; had more dealings with Mike but Dr. Jelinek did the surgery. All went well and now I have no pain. Thanks to both of you. Very professional team.


Dr. Flock was my surgeon, and Kaden Thueson was my P.A. Friendly, easy to talk to, and clear in their explanations. The office staff and nurses were the same. A very positive medical experience. Thank you all.


Dr. Beardsley was excellent. He was very professional and helpful.


Great experience, took time to explain everything.


Dr. Weaver answered all my questions, and I have complete confidence in him and the entire staff.


I appreciate the time I spent talking about my health with Dr. Krisher.


Very good. Explained everything very well. Very caring.


I would say that overall my experience has been very positive. Dr. Boyea has a great bedside manner and answered my questions fully. Very quick visits - needed to have my questions ready! Very good, nice doctor.


Dr. Jelinek explained in detail my issue. Thoroughly explained my options. Excellent bedside manner. I felt comfortable and was confident in his assessment.


Dr. Ripley is very patient and caring; he listens to you without judgment. He takes his time with you as the patient.


Dr. Weber is so patient with our son and answers all our questions. He gives recommendations without judgment. I fully trust him with my son.


Very professional, the whole team was excellent.


After several surgeries, I was treated like a friend and carefully listened to regarding my condition. Dr. Hansen’s professional courtesy and treatment of his patients are outstanding.


His nurse was friendly and professional. Kaden Thueson, P.A., was excellent. He explained her x-rays to us and went through her plan to us thoroughly, so we understood. He was professional and knowledgeable answered our questions. Definitely would recommend him to family and friends


I was nervous about the seriousness my knee injury was. I left the office encouraged that there was a reasonably easy fix.


Dr. Ripley is wonderful, knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to hear you and is a brilliant and kind doctor.


Dr. Washington got right to work on my foot. He made a good recommendation and sent me on my way. He was efficient, pleasant, and quick.


Knowledgeable, good explanation of problems, spends adequate.


He is very professional and efficient, and a great surgeon who worked me in quickly after an accident.


Dr. Watson is very friendly and informative. He answered my questions and was very supportive.


Dr. Eggleston is a great doctor. She listens to your issues and explains things perfectly.


I had a pretty much constant pain in my replacement hip joint. I had been told by another provider that it would most likely take a major surgery to get any possible relief. I went to Dr. Hansen, and he told me that it didn't appear to be in the joint itself, and he suspected it was a muscle, or tendon problem. Turns out that was the case, and after an injection to the hip bursa, I am now pain-free, hiking, etc. What a good feeling.


Dr. Eggleston has been my doctor for 23 years. She has taken good care of me. She doesn’t rush our time together and asks good questions. I feel like she has done a good job keeping me well.


Very professional and answered all my questions.


Dr. Eggleston is very friendly, personable, focused on my issues, listens, and is very comfortable to see. The staff is very friendly and caring.


Dr. Mallory is amazing. She is comforting and kind and really listens.


We absolutely love Dr. Parkey. He has been with both my babies since they were born. Dr. Parkey actively listens and trusts a mother's instinct. He never makes you feel crazy or dumb for bringing your children in for a cold. He genuinely seems happy to see our kids, and both my kids absolutely adore him. In fact, when they're sick, half the time, they will ask me to call Dr. Parkey. I cannot imagine having raised my children without Dr. Parkey.


Kaden Thueson was very thorough with his explanations! I liked him even though it is a tough situation for me!


I respect Dr. Hansen's opinion are have faith and trust in his abilities.


Dr. Parkey takes his time and answers all my questions. He has a great bedside manner.


Dr. Weaver was very lovely. Explained things clearly. His casting was great.


Ever since I have gone to Dr. Parkey, I have had the best experience and he has helped me with so much. Whether it is for a sports physical or just a check-up, he is understanding. I appreciate everything he does and will continue going there.


Dr. Boyea is wonderful. He explained my surgery to me very well, so I knew what to expect. His personality is the best.


All of the nurses were so nice and comforting. They made me feel at ease before and after surgery. Dr. Boyea always does a great job and treats you like a person, not just a patient.


I received a friendly and quick evaluation from Dr. Roth.


My experience was excellent. Surgery went well and the follow up was great. No complaints at all


Dr. Weaver was thorough and seemed to know what he was doing. He took extra time in surgery to make good bone structure again. He contacted my sister after the surgery, explained all the details, and gave me a follow-up appointment. He called the next business day directly, which was awesome. So far, I feel like this is a good thing. Thank you so much.


I was very pleased with your staff and Dr. Parkey. They provided helpful information without a long wait. I am blessed to have had such a great experience with this healthcare team. I would recommend your facility to others. It was definitely worth the 80-mile, one-way commute to see Dr. Parkey. He lived up to his great reputation.


He took care of me on his lunch break for my first expertise. He listens. He explains everything in away you can understand and talks to you about getting you on a path for great recovery. All of the staff makes you fell welcome. Thank-you all for what you have done for me!!!!


Many thanks to Lewiston Orthopaedics, I've had severe back pain for many years, it progressed to the point that my left leg lost key muscle function, and put me on crutches. I had an MRI at Lewiston Ortho, and a cyst was discovered at the L-1 facet. The cyst was compressing my spinal cord severely. Dr. Dietrich removed the cyst, and my left leg regained full muscle function. The service and care by all the people at Lewiston Orthopaedics is excellent. I won't hesitate to return for any future orthopaedic problems that I, or my family, may incur.


While moving a machine I ruptured a disk in my lower back. My regular provider, Todd Carpenter took me through the appropriate stages of diagnostic care and I ended up with a referral to Lewiston Orthopaedics. Dr. Dietrich and the other PA's that handled my case were kind, respectful and professional. I followed the recovery directions and now am absolutely pain-free. Great bunch of people and great coffee in the waiting room!


Dr. Beardsley performed my surgery well. With effort, I was able to recover most of my range of motion. I would recommend him to others.


My daughter loves seeing Dr. Lynch and trusts her which makes taking her to the doctor much easier. Dr. Lynch speaks to my child, treats her with respect, and involves her in the appointment. As a parent, she ensures I understand everything and also helps me forecast and plan for possible complications or other treatment options.
When I ask a question it is never eschewed or ignored but addressed head-on. I appreciate that the most about Dr Lynch.


I could not have asked for a more wonderful compassionate doctor than Dr. Jelinek. He has been wonderful for me both before and after a knee scope. He has also helped me with some hip tendonitis.


Dr. Eggleston is very caring. She takes her time, really listens to me, and addresses many issues during my visits. I am thankful that she is my primary provider.


Dr. Eggleston is the only doctor I've ever had who actually cares and tries to do her best at everything every time I come in.


He was very professional and took his time so I did not feel rushed. He explained everything he was doing and any possible side effects the shot may have and how to treat it if it happened. Very satisfied with him and the whole practice.


Dr. Weber is attentive and kind. He listens to our concerns and stays within our level of comfort. Our kids are always comfortable with him.


I could hardly walk before surgery. Three weeks out now, I walk with little pain up and down stairs and in and out of the car. I am so grateful for Dr. Hansen and Bret Paulson. I have my life back. Thank you so much. Life is good again.


Dr. Weber was always awesome. He was very clear in his directions on caring for our newborn baby. He was always very kind and prompt to attend to our baby and take care of him. Every single piece of advice he gave us was 100% close to the reality of our baby’s behavior. He is a real “dad” dressed like a doctor to share his professional experience. I am very happy to have met him.


Dr. Roth was wonderful. She was quick, educated me on my concerns, and addressed all my questions.


Rychael Morton was very informative, outlined my options, and answered my questions with a casual and comfortable manner.


Dr. Weaver did an excellent job seeing what needed to be done and completing it when he had my shoulder open. The follow-up was really informative. Dr. Weaver deserves a raise. He even worked on my neighbor's knee, which is healing perfectly.


The staff is professional and caring and provides excellent service. I enjoy seeing Dr. Washington and am extremely confident I get the best care.


My experience with Dr. Weaver was a 5-star rating.


Dr. Mallory and her nurse and office staff are exceptional. I really feel like I am getting the best care possible. I will gladly refer her to anyone I know. Thank you.


Very high praise. Dr. Beardsley got my shoulder repaired in minimal time and I was back to work 4 months later after PT. Great explanations of the injury as well as courteous and kind. I recomend him to everyone I have talked to about orthopedic surgery and consultation since I had my surgery done. Top Notch.


Provider took time to answer my questions and offered detailed explanations.


It was my first visit with Dr. Mallory and my annual wellness exam. She listened to my questions and asked about health conditions and preventative diagnostic tests. She was very pleasant.


Carol and her staff are very professional and kind.


Dr. Darby Lynch is knowledgeable, thorough, and attentive. She listens and provides appropriate feedback. We are so glad to have her as our son's pediatrician.


Dr. Boyea is perfect ,I loved him great Doctor.

Greg Obray was extremely professional and very pleasant. I saw him at 3 visits.


Bret Paulson has been the provider I have been seeking relief/answers. He has had the help of doctors to help and treat my injury, but for the central part, he has been the guy to keep me informed and make sure I understand the next steps or procedure that is about to be performed. He gave me an injection with a dye for an MRI on my right hip yesterday, and he explained, every step along the way and was very kind and gentle. Thank you, Bret Paulson! You're awesome!


Developed a trigger finger/right/middle. Dr. Boyea did two treatments with cortisone shots and that took away the inflammation/pain. He will do a release only if it comes back. He was engaging and very helpful.


Dr. Beardsley explained the surgical procedure, parts, and equipment. He answered all my questions.


Dr. Washington helped me. I have not been back to the doctor since last year and needed a yearly exam. I have been put on a three-month maintenance plan for my toes.

Dr. Watson was very kind and listened to my concerns. He went over my options and gave me control of my health care.


Dr. Eggleston is a very caring and knowledgeable doctor who listened to my health concerns.


Meeting Dr. Eggleston for the first time was nice and relaxing. She made me feel very comfortable.


Dr Parkey has always been great with my kids and me as a parent. He listens to my concerns and doesn’t treat me like I don’t know what I’m doing. In my eyes, there is no better pediatrician.


Dr. Jelinek was very good in his explanation of the procedure. Answered all our questions.


We have very high regard for Dr. Ripley.


Dr. Parkey is always amazing. My kids love him. He is a great doctor.


Dr. Boyea was pleasant, knowledgeable, and caring.


This was a pre op visit. Lee was seen within 15 min. The PA visited the room in 5 to 10 min. This was a efficient professional kind visit. Future surgery was discussed in detail, recuperating explained. Appreciated this visit.


This is my second experience with Dr. Jelinek. Three years ago I had my left shoulder operated on. Since then I tore my rotator cuff on my right shoulder. I knew I wanted Dr. Jelinek to do this surgery also as he knew my past history. Once again he did a great job. Very little pain this time and I am recovering well. Thank you Dr. Jelinek and your staff for you great care and kindness during my injury. You guys are amazing!


Went to Dr. Boyea for my wrist and he diagnosed my condition and provided me with a treatment plan that worked. Will return to him as needed in the future. Great doc!

Dr. Dietrich is awesome. If he doesn't have to cut you open, he won't.


Even though Dr. Washington was running late, he did not rush the exam. He is in demand due to a shortage. It is great to have him.


I always feel educated and reassured by Dr. Parkey; he is the best.


Brett Paulson is a beautiful, caring person. Very knowledgeable and terrific at his job. The girl in the x-ray is so special and caring also. Just a wonderful staff.


They were accommodating and very knowledgeable about my cortisone injection, and trying to help me out with my insurance situation as much as possible gave me a lot of ice about my upcoming surgery.


Dr. Hansen and his PA Bret Paulson are the best. They actually listen to what you are saying and then explain what is happening and what to expect.


Dr. Parkey is excellent. I have been going to his office for five years. He listens, understands what you portray to him, and recommends exactly what is or isn't needed. He has the utmost respect for my wife, daughters, and me.

So thankful to be seen promptly and received the care I needed. Thank you to everyone.


All of the staff were very warm and caring.


Dr. Jelinek is a competent and caring professional.


I have had 2 surgeries with Dr. Jelinik and both experiences have been great. He explains everything before hand to me and then afterwards he goes out to waiting room to my family and talks to them about what he did in surgery. He personally calls a few days later to check on me and his nurses touch base with me also. I have always gotten exceptional care from Lewiston Orthopaedics and will trust them with any further medical care in the future. Thank you.


They fixed the problem I was having in my knee and also fixed another problem they found when they got in there. Always polite, always professional, and took my special circumstances into consideration.

Dr. Hansen had been seeing me for a year prior to surgery for my hip issue. We knew that surgery was inevitable but Dr. Hansen let me chose when that would happen. The treatment prior to and the surgical procedure itself was a huge success. Six weeks after surgery with the added bonus of Physical Therapy, I am back to nearly all of my normal activities.


I have been trying to get back to the traditional dance floor. Dr. Hansen has been outstanding; he brought a different way of handling things. I’m grateful.


Dr. Washington has my complete trust.

Rychael Morton was very thorough when explaining my MRI results and treatment options.


I have had two surgeries with Dr. Boyea in years past. He was able to repair and put an end to both problems. He's very thorough in his explanations of what was going on and what was needed to take care of them. He answered my questions and was very kind and gentle. I believe he knows his subject quite well and is a skillful surgeon. I trust him with my hands.


Dr. Eggleston was prompt and caring.


Friendly, competent, on time. I’m a happy camper


My shoulder surgery was a good experience. Dr. Hansen provided a clear explanation of my injury and the treatment options. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout the treatment. The operation was a straightforward professional procedure. I would not hesitate to recommend Lewiston Orthopaedics to anyone.


Gregory was professional in his demeanor. He has a friendly personality and took his time assessing my issue thoroughly. I would recommend him to others.


Bret Paulson was very helpful with my finger contracture. It is troublesome to me because I perceive loss of function, but difficult to describe because I have no pain. He was patient and attentive; he consulted Dr. Boyea during my visit; I left with a prescription for physical therapy and a follow-up appointment. My problem is minor in the grand scheme of things, but Bret Paulson took it seriously and treated me like a queen. I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Lewiston Orthopaedics.


Dr. Krisher is the best. We love how thorough and joyful he is.


My experience with Dr. Krisher was perfect.

Articulate, informative, personable, and professional.


Dr. Eggleston is excellent and professional in every way. I look forward to each appointment.


He was accommodating, explained things so I could understand.


Dr. Ripley takes the time to speak with his patients, find a safe, effective solution, and get to the root of the problem; he cares for you while you're there. He is very reassuring and kind. He is the only doctor I've been to who seems to listen, take his time, and do his job instead of just prescribing a prescription. I will recommend him every time.


Dr. Beardsley is always very caring & knowledgeable.


Dr. Weber and the staff are always amazing, friendly, and helpful. Dr. Weber makes us feel secure in the help he provides. Anytime we leave a message on the nurse's line, they get back to us right away and give us the best assistance they can.


This was my third surgery with Dr. Beardsley. He has always treated me with respect and a caring attitude. He takes the time to listen and explain fully his diagnosis and all the options to help me decide my condition. I am genuinely grateful that he is my doctor and highly recommend him to everyone!


Dr. Washington is a really great podiatrist. He knew what he was doing when I had complications. I appreciate everything he did to help me. His honesty and friendliness are spot on. Thank you, Dr. Washington.


Always a pleasant experience. The doctor gives plenty of attention and definitely cares about his patients.


It was the understanding of my doctor. Knowing I was in pain, but not being able to locate where it was coming from. Dr. Jelinek took the time to explore to find out what the issue was.


Dr. Beardsley is a beautiful doctor. I am pleased with the results of my surgery. Doctor Beardsley took the time to answer all of my questions and explained the surgery in detail in a very professional manner. My recovery from the operation has been going well. It is five weeks today since the surgery, and physical therapy has been more comfortable than I expected except for the pain in my sciatic nerve. It is slowly improving with treatment. It is so beautiful to be able to straighten my leg which allows me to walk upright for the first time in many years. It is a significant improvement from 5 weeks ago. My friends are amazed at how well I am walking in comparison to before the surgery.
I'm looking forward to getting the other one fixed soon, and Doctor Beardsley will be the surgeon I request.


Dr. Weber is truly amazing. I have a hard time trusting providers, and making the switch to use him for our son’s pediatrician was the best decision. He is super attentive and kind and has never once made me feel less than as a parent.


I was happy with the professional service and kindness from Dr. Hansen.


Dr. Parkey is the best pediatrician my oldest daughter has ever seen, and the best pediatrician in the valley. He is wise, knowledgeable, patient, caring, and personable.


Very good. Answered all my questions.


Dr. Weber is always so friendly; you can tell he truly cares and listens to your concerns. I always feel relieved and a sense of comfort after my kids see him. I really appreciate him.


I felt like my provider, along with the entire team, treated me as if I were the most critical patient today. It made me think I was in good hands. My provider took the time to listen to my issues while we move forward with the surgery and even had suggestions for improving my overall healthcare, just because he listened to what I felt I needed. Thank you.


Dr. Ripley cares about his patients' well-being; he and his staff are friendly and professional. If you have a problem that he thinks a specialist should look at, he will immediately refer you to the right specialist. I would not change doctors. Dr Ripley is one of the best doctors I have visited in many years.


Dr. Eggleston was warm, friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, and a team player.


Before my partial knee replacement surgery, Greg Obray had seen me explain the game plan, answered my questions and concerns until I fully understood what’s what. After my surgery (performed by Dr. Beardsley, who is Amazing), Greg came by my room again to check up on me, answer questions and concerns. He is very polite and very professional. He takes time to listen and fully understand what you are asking and explains your items until you fully understand. All encounters with Greg Obray, Dr. Beardsley, and the Lewiston Orthopaedics staff, have all been fantastic. No bad experiences, everyone employed there is there to help, and they make you feel welcome. I recommend the Lewiston Orthopaedics to any one wanting or needing some good honest work done.


Dr. Ripley always makes you feel important. He takes time to explain everything. He does his best to work with you if you need attention immediately. My whole family is happy he is my doctor.


Our experience with Dr. Roth was excellent. She's friendly, professional, and wonderful with kids. I also appreciate all the nurses for making everyone comfortable and doing their best to give every patient the best possible medical care.


Our family thinks the absolute world of Dr. Weber, and we highly recommend him. He is so helpful, knowledgeable, and very patient with all our questions. I'm a new mom and always come with a list. He very patiently answers everything and never rushes us. He's practical and gives great advice. He's seen our son from birth to 15 and a half months, and we will continue to see him. He's the best.


My experience with Dr. Eggleston was excellent.


She was gentle, and thorough and answered all my questions.


We had a great experience with all staff.


Brett Paulson always treats me with respect. He always takes the time to answer my questions.


Oh, you change my life pain is gone. The day after coming home I was great used ice at night but was in the go no staying home. Dressed up and went out. Didn’t need a cane or walker did stairs slowly but did them. Now back feels excellent thank you so much for what you did to change my life. Genuinely thank you Dr. Dietrich and your staff


Dr. Watson and his staff were simply amazing. I have been coming to Valley Medical since 2021 and my visit with him was the first time I felt heard. He was proactive in helping me achieve my and my husband's ultimate goal given the heartbreak we have gone through the past 10 years of trying to conceive. I loved that he took the time to answer my questions and help us and was extremely genuine. This was the first time we felt hopeful and optimistic about the future. Biggest thank you, to Dr. Watson & his team.


Dr. Eggleston listens, asks questions, and orders appropriate tests based on my symptoms. I believe she genuinely cares about my well-being.


Very knowledgeable and took time to explain aspects of knee pain.


He is so lovely; he explained everything to where I could understand what was going to be done. He is an excellent Doctor.


Even though it was painful, it was not that bad. Dr. Washington talked me through it and told me to breathe, which helped. My toes are healing nicely and don't hurt anymore. Thank you.


Dr. Jelinek has a relaxed professional demeanor. He listened to and respected my opinion. I felt he and I had a frank conversation about what seems to be the best approach to my knee problems at this time. I have confidently chosen to follow his recommendations for surgery.


He was #1 a good listener, checked out the problem with me and then provided service with showing compassion and understanding at the same time. He asked me afterward how I felt and provided me with a sense of hope and encouragement. He was very supportive and professional in his manner.


Dr. Mallory was very friendly and thorough at my appointment.


I could hardly walk before surgery. Three weeks out now, I walk with little pain up and down stairs and in and out of the car. I am so grateful for Dr. Hansen and Bret Paulson. I have my life back. Thank you so much. Life is good again.


Dr. Watson was the only gynecologist I have found who actually listened to me and took my overall health and other health problems into account. He helped me through a hard choice, but it was the right choice. He has truly improved my quality of life more than any doctor has so far. Thank you, Dr. Watson and staff. I'm very grateful.


Easy going and professional. Simply explained things and made sure I knew what was going to happen and if had any questions. Quick in and out.


Dr. Ripley listens and cares.


Dr. Eggleston is awesome. She listens and explains things. If she thinks you need tests, she orders them. She gets your results, quickly reads them, and gets back to you the next day. The staff is wonderful about explaining also. It was a great, caring experience.


Dr. Watson and his nursing staff are always professional. They answer questions I have and leave the door open for further communication.


Dr. Hansen has taken care of my knee issues since around 2003. He's done a great job. Thank you, Dr. Hansen.


I absolutely love Dr. Weber; he’s great with my kids. He listens to your concerns and goes above and beyond to answer all our questions, concerns, and issues my husband and I may have. He’s by far the best pediatrician I could ask for my kids.


Dr. Hansen and his PA Bret Paulson are the best. They actually listen to what you are saying and then explain what is happening and what to expect.


Dr. Mallory was very kind, caring, and professional. She really listened to me and genuinely cared about me and my health. I am so glad I could get her as my provider.


I was very nervous about the procedure, and Greg Obray was helpful, making the experience better for me. He helped me relax and not be so nervous.


Dr. Eggleston is very supportive and kind with her words. She talks and explains everything to me in a way that I understand, and my grandmother does as well.


They got me in on short notice due to a skiing injury. Dr. Ripley is great. Thank you.


He had to take fluid out of my knee and did an excellent job. He explained everything so that I understood and did consult with Dr. Jelinek to get his opinion for what needed to be done going forward.


Dr. Parkey has always been the best at what he does. He listens, spends time with you, communicates, is very knowledgeable, and loves to speak with my daughter about her interests when she's in his office. I've always felt completely safe with my children's care in his hands. We've thrown him some curveballs along the way, but he always gets us on the right path to solving the issue and back to good health. Above being a good doctor, he's an exceptional human. We will always recommend Dr. Parkey to others for pediatric care. He's simply the best in the valley.


Greg Obray is always so professional, kind, and takes the time to explain what's going on. Greg is top-notch!


Dr. Washington and his staff are great. They are professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and care about each patient.


He was very polite and informative about everything.


Dr. Beardsley explained the surgery, and recovery/Physical therapy in a way I could understand. Both knees were worn out, Dr. Beardsley preformed two full knee replacements in about an eight week time frame ( at six weeks the "new" felt better than the old one). I am currently about 12 weeks from my last surgery and am getting around great! The "staff" at the clinic were courteous and worked around my "out of town" schedule and answered questions I had over the phone during recovery at home. I can walk, hike the woods & hunt without pain!! Also working on more sleep than I have had in years. To say I am pleased with my provider would be an understatement. I would highly recommend the services done there to anyone that would listen. None of it's a "walk in the park," recovery and therapy are what you put into it, but the results are well worth it.


Dr. Mallory seems very efficient and caring. She listens to what you have to say. I'm very happy with her.


Greg was awesome. He is extremely helpful and answers my questions. He also is very personable.


Dr. Boyea is my ideal provider; he is efficient, likable, and, most of all, an expert in his field. I am extremely pleased with my progress. My hand feels much younger. I can't wait to return to handcrafts, which I was once very passionate about.


I really appreciate having a locally owned orthopedic practice that provides high-quality specialized care. What makes them different from other orthopedic practices is that each of their providers has a specialized area of the body they treat rather than a "do it all" approach. So if and when the need for surgery arises, you can be assured this doctor has the most experience performing your procedure. I want to go to the doctor who does the most of a particular type of surgery, not one that can "do it all" but doesn't perform as many.


Staff and Doctors are always pleasant to be around.


They have a wonderful staff. We were brought back early before our appointment and saw Dr. Roth quickly. Everyone is so kind and thorough.


Dr. Mallory provided a very comfortable environment with a fast and easy process. There wasn't any messing around; they got things moving with what needed to be done.


Dr. Weber has always treated us with respect and courtesy. He takes the time to listen to our concerns. He is very kind and wonderful with my kids. They love coming to see him. I highly recommend Dr. Weber.


Thad has been doing an excellent job with me.


I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Beardsley and Greg Obray. I feel that they both have a great deal of compassion for my pain end well being. I will have my knee replaced soon, and I have all the faith in the world that I am using the best team for me.


Dr. Eggleston is kind, compassionate, and concerned, always asking the right questions and listening to what you have to say. She's an excellent doctor.


Dr. Lynch is a great provider. She engages with my children and helps them feel as comfortable as possible. I appreciate her taking the time to revisit our concerns.


My experience with Dr. Washington was good. Everyone was very professional, knowledgeable, kind, and gentle.


The nurses and Kaden were awesome in taking care of me after falling in the parking lot.


Dr. Watson is the best OB/GYN I've had the opportunity to meet. He's professional, hardworking, and kind. If I could still have babies, I would insist on him being my baby's deliverer. Dr. Watson and his hardworking midwife are the ones.


Dr. Eggleston is always great to see. She is friendly and caring. She listens and never seems rushed to get my appointment finished. I am confident with her as my physician.


I give Dr. Beardsley and his team for keeping me out of a wheelchair for the rest of my life. Instead, after bilateral hip replacement I am free of pain, do all my own yard work, gardening, lead a full social life, etc. There was never long waits at Lewiston Orthopaedics and the staff was always helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. My questions were always respected and answered completely. I have recommended Lewiston Orthopaedics to many people.


I have been a patient of Dr. Ripley’s for several years; he’s the best. He listens, is very knowledgeable, and cares about his patients.


Karen J. Thueson, P.A.-C, was very professional and thorough. He listened and ordered an x-ray to confirm his diagnosis and treatment.


Dr. Hansen is the best doctor who has ever provided me with care. He is professional, caring, knowledgeable, skilled, proficient, and kind. He uses direct healing methods and works patiently to solve patients' issues. I am so very thankful to have been treated by Dr. Hansen. I will forever speak highly of his character and skill and the services and facilities provided by Catalyst Medical Group. Thank you all for being there for me and others you care for.


The environment with Dr. Ripley was comfortable and professional.


Dr. Hansen did my hip replacement in June. It was a great experience (as surgeries go :-)), and now, about two months later my hip feels better than normal. I'm amazed. Not only is he competent and knowledgeable in the latest, most advanced technologies, he cares about his patients. This is so important. Both my son and I have seen medical professionals at Lewiston Orthopaedics, and I'm extremely impressed with everyone we've seen. Thank you!


My experience with Dr. Eggleston was great. She really cares. She is always pleasant and is very knowledgeable. She explains things, which I really appreciate.


Dr. Ripley always greets us with a smile. He’s easy to talk to and thorough. He explains everything he’s doing and why, which is always appreciated.


Andrea provides excellent information and advice. She listens and cares about what you have to say. She is also very easy to talk to, and I feel at ease and relaxed with her.


Took very good care of me and did a good job on my knees and shoulder.


Dr. Jelinek listens to everything I have to say and never makes me feel rushed. My past and current experiences have been really good. I would recommend him to anyone.


It was the usual knee problem, and getting more uncomfortable by the day it seemed. My primary doctor suggested Dr. Hansen, when I said that I wanted to use the orthopedic clinic. At that particular time, I don't know that I was really thinking surgery ... just looking for a relief.
After all the X-rays, Dr. Hansen suggested arthroscopic surgery for my particular situation. It was then I learned that the surgery would actually be done in the clinic's own hospital, and not in one of the locally established hospitals. Truly I wasn't quite certain about this in my own mind, thinking about problems that could arise, sanitation, et al. However, I was impressed by Dr. Hansen's demeanor, professionally as well as his people skills. The surgery was a success, a couple of steroid inoculations were necessary in about a three/four year period, and all seemed great.
Eventually, he performed another arthroscopic on the same knee. Eventually, the knee needed more attention and he believed the new drug Synvisc-One would be an excellent help for my situation. At that time, Medicare wouldn't give permission, which irritated him considerably. It must have taken him the better part of an hour to finally get the insurance to accept the new drug. If they would not have accepted this drug, I was more than willing to pay for it myself. However, Dr. Hansen was insistent that I not pay for it. Before I left the Clinic, I had the Synvisc-One, and Doctor Hansen was smiling again.
I know this is a long and detailed account. However, I've told this story many, many times in the months and years since. I have wanted to say thank you to him about every time I am in, or around, the clinic. My sincere appreciation to the man and the doctor!


Dr. Weaver was professional and courteous. He took the time to answer my questions. He administered an injection in my knee that was quick and painless.


Dr. Washington handled my issue perfectly. I was very pleased with his professionalism and efficiency.


I came in for my second hip injection. PA, Obray, and the assistant made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I got right in and out. I was able to watch on the screen to make sure the needle went deep into my hip joint, and it did. The doctor and the staff are very polite and professional.


Everything was excellent during my visit with Dr. Gosey.


Dr. Hansen is the best, he explains everything in ways you can understand, and he shows concern about a patient’s wellbeing. I trust his call and judgment. Thank you


Dr. Watson has been absolutely fantastic. He listened to my concerns and gave me possible causes of my current issues as well as treatment options. He took time to get to know me and my history without rushing through my appointment. Dr. Watson is personable, thorough, and very knowledgeable.


As much I wished I didn't need last surgery to hand at least the doctor is a great guy and physician/ surgeon. I've had good results; the staff is always pleasant. Thanks, Dr.Boyea and staff for all your kindness.


Dr. Ripley is an amazing find in this small market. I've spent the past 45 years in major cities with various primary care doctors. They were all fine, professional, straight shooters, decent staff. But now, retiring back to the valley where I grew up, one of my concerns was finding a primary who treated me as a human and is up to date on the latest worldview, perspective, technology, information, and research. Dr. Ripley definitely checks all those boxes. I'm thankful to call him my primary physician.


Other than being a little bit sore after my first surgery I had a great experience with the Dr. and all of the staff. I am looking forward to the second surgery hopefully being done before the beginning of the year.


As always, Dr. Jelinek listened to all my concern's and seemed are genuinely interested in getting to the bottom of what's causing my problem or problems. He never gives you the impression he is as busy as he is or attempt's to rush you so he can get on to his next patient. The Man genuinely concerned about his patients and he explains his finding's in a way a Laymen can understand and this is how I am treated by him every time I see him if I could give him ten stars I would


Bret Paulson was very professional and would highly recommend him.


Very informative and relaxed atmosphere. Brett Paulson listened and really heard my concerns.


Needing surgery on both hands due to carpal tunnel, Dr. Jelinek and Candice correctly outlined a path to complete recovery. I had surgery on one side and then the other about a month later. Today, both of my hands are near normal with the pain and numbness wholly gone. I am delighted with the outcome of this surgery. Dr. Jelinek is awesome! Professional! And, spot-on with his diagnoses of the problems I have had as my body seems to be wearing out. I believe he has an excellent support staff. Candice is an excellent complement to his team providing the same excellent diagnoses and customer service. This appears to be a great combination! I believe that when construction is complete with your facility, Dr. Jelinek and his staff deserve executive office space!! Having visited them in the "other office space" has still been excellent but appears to be the furthest from the front door and have been making the best of their conditions. Dr. Jelinek has provided surgery on both my knees and hands, I have been a patient of him since 2009. He is an excellent doctor! Whenever I see him around, he always has time to speak with me and still has a happy attitude, indeed a great person! I hope he stays around for a long time!


Friendly, professional, thorough. Great visit, everything explained in detail. I wish I had asked more questions, but it was a lot of information to take in and process.


When I saw Dr. Washington, the wait time was short. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I felt like they would do whatever they could to help.


They are resourceful. Dr. Boyea is very much willing to help. And polite.


Professional. Was not hurried. Felt like I was number ONE! Gave lots of info that was good to know.


All went well with Dr. Ripley.


Dr. Ripley and his care team were nice and professional. It was a good experience all the way through.


I saw Dr. Weaver for a knee issue. My blood pressure elevates any time I am in a doctor's office. His nurse gave me a chance to settle and retook my blood pressure. She also came back in to hold my hand when I got an injection. Dr. Weaver answered all my questions and was very easy to talk with.


Kaden and I were of a single mind as to the problem and solution. Kaden added that post surgery I should seek inserts to manage foot problems.


Dr. Weber interacts so greatly with my kids, and he’s always allowed me to ask questions and address any concerns. Although they’re children, he includes them in the session.


Always very happy with service provided. Takes the time to explain & tell me options.


Dr. Boyea was kind, as usual, and listened to me. He answered all of my questions with medical options for treatments. He got to the point of my pain issue, and I was given a steroid injection, which helped immensely. This was one of my best visits ever.


The staff was friendly and accommodating. Dr. Boyea was informative and very knowledgeable. He diagnosed the problem and explained what the surgical procedure would be in the future. I was very comfortable with the visit and the surgery that will take place in the spring.


I have had an excellent experience with Dr. Jelinek and his staff. He has correctly identified my problems, recommended solutions to repair my problems, explained the entire process from surgery to recovery and physical therapy. I have no doubts about his recommendations; he has been spot on! I recently had surgery on my wrists, and again he has performed an excellent job. My recovery has been as he explained. He has an excellent support staff that providing excellent customer service and is pleasant people to be around. I hope, after the construction of the facility, Dr. Jelinek receives an executive style office and furniture for himself and staff. He is deserving of this request! Thank you for such excellent service and a down-to-earth person.


Dr. Neil is very personable, kind, considerate, and knowledgeable in what he does. He understands the foot and what causes it to be dysfunctional or function excellently. Thank you, Dr. Neil, for getting me to walk again.


Dr. Boyea is professional and empathetic to me (as a patient). Too many doctors in this day and age are not that way. Dr. Boyea is truly a breath of fresh air.


He listens! He's concerned about my issues.


Dr. Washington is knowledgeable, thorough, respectful, and kind. He examined me and determined I needed to see someone else about my condition, so I felt he was honest.


Dr. Roth always answers my questions and helps me to find a solution, whether it's a referral or prescribing a medication. She also addresses any concerns I have about my children, especially when I am worried or upset. I love both her and her nurses. Lauren and Abbie, with whom I feel I have a personal relationship, make going to doctor appointments much easier and less like a chore. Both my girls absolutely love their nurses and Dr. Roth. We are so grateful for them.


I visited Dr. Mallory for a follow-up from an occupational nerve study. She was very precise and informed. I chose Dr. Mallory as my new primary physician.


Dr. Jelinek is relaxed, friendly, comfortable, and knowledgeable.


I can't thank you all enough! This was my second experience with Lewiston Orthopaedics and both times everyone in the office was friendly, courteous, and professional. What I appreciate most is how everyone is so committed to getting me taken care of and back on my feet as quickly as possible!


Dr. Hansen is great. Upfront, honest, and professional. He will be doing my hip replacement surgery in June and I am not the slightest bit nervous about it, as I am extremely comfortable with his credentials, his competency, and his credibility as an orthopedic surgeon. He is knowledgeable and treated me as an equal—no hint of condescension. I appreciate his professionalism.


Time and time again, I have had great experiences with Dr. Ripley. He is very excited about his work. He does research if we encounter a topic he needs clarification on. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.


They are very accommodating, listen to what you have to say and answer all your questions.


Rychael was very personable and thoroughly explained things to me in a way I could understand. Though I will likely need to see someone else for treatment, I felt like he cared about helping me get that path lined out and moving forward.


Great staff. Made a person feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend this facility.


I fell from a ladder when I was younger and because of it I've had bad knees for many years. I went to Dr. Hansen who replaced both knees and did a wonderful job.


Dr. Boyea is one of my favorite doctors he is always smiling. He is kind and has worked on me quite a few times. The office girls are very nice and also the nurses are friendly and helpful. I've never had a bad experience at the office.


Brett did a great job smoothing some anxious feelings of our five yr old daughter who was traumatized by her injury.


Great experience. Everyone is so friendly and helpful!


I had a grossly deteriorated left hip. It was all I could do to walk and lots of pain. Dr. Hanson got me right into surgery within a couple of weeks. The surgery was excellent. I have less pain right after surgery than 8 months before. I was off walker, using a cane in 10 days after surgery. My surgery surgery was on the 17th and I walked a 1/2 mile on the 2nd of the next month! Tell me that's not success! I would recommend Lewiston Orthopedics to anyone.


Dr. Ripley is a very friendly doctor who cares for his patients. He explains things very clearly so you can understand.


Very impressed with Bret Paulson. Interacted with me during the entire procedure and I felt confident in his treatment of my swollen knee. Thank you.


Brett Paulson pays attention to tiny details. He is evident in his explanation for treatment and exhibited s excellent "bedside" manner.


Dr. Ripley is awesome, compassionate, kind, and thorough.


I broke my ankle on Christmas Day. Dr. Gosey saw me in the ER and got me into surgery the following day. My older brother is an orthosurgeon and consulted with Dr Gosey. He agreed with the plan exactly. Dr. Gosey checked on me several times before surgery to clarify plans for surgery and made sure I understood the follow-up care and instructions. The surgery went very well, and Dr. Gosey had me home on the same day as the surgery. It was a bit more extensive than I had hoped for. That said, the follow-up x-rays a week later showed perfect alignment of my plate and screws. Because we live in a different state, my extended follow-up has been with a Board Certified Ortho. His evaluation of Dr. Gosey's work/skill was expressed as “perfect” and “excellent.” I expect a full recovery and to be back at the Ski Slopes next season. Dr. Gosey was a great communicator throughout the process, and his hands backed up his words. Thank You, Dr. Gosey.


Dr. Krisher works assertively with our strong-willed, anxious boy. He takes the time to explain the "what" and "why" of procedures and medications.


Unfortunately, I've had two experiences with orthopaedic surgeries at Lewiston Orthopaedics. A shattered left elbow and a fractured right arm. Both times Dr. Boyea was beyond fantastic. He explained my options with detail and what I could expect for outcomes. Today thanks to his expertise I can hardly notice I ever was injured. He can come to my house for dinner anytime!


Dr. Washington's assistant, Amber, was the first person we saw; she was awesome. She was so delightful and funny. When Dr. Washington came in, he explained my options very clearly. We chose the best option for me. I got right in, and the procedure I chose was done quickly and without pain. I will definitely recommend him to anyone who is seeking a doctor of podiatry.


Everyone is kind and helpful. I have had a great experience.


Jared Fielding was quick, kind, and helpful.


Quick and thorough attention when I needed it.


We love Dr. Weber; he provides excellent care for all of our children and answers all of our questions and concerns.


Appreciative of the consultation with Provider and PA. Found office staff to be very helpful and informative. The surgery experience was of great relief and staff helpful to my recovery. Follow-up satisfactory and informative.


It was an excellent experience. Kaden Thueson explained everything and was very friendly.


The pediatrics department is Catalyst's bright shining star. The front desk staff is always kind and helpful, and the clinical staff is patient, knowledgeable, and excellent. Dr. Roth was incredible as she sat down and interacted with my son. She explained what was going on and then discussed options for treatment. I felt confident in what she was doing and suggesting. It was a great experience all around.


Dr. Boyea is a wonderful doctor who cares and does his job professionally. I am all set for surgery. He gave me an exam and thoroughly checked my lungs, heart, and the rest of my breathing. I am confident that he will be professional and do the job precisely. My husband went to him for two major job injury surgeries on his fingers over 15 years ago, and he is still doing well, and his fingers look amazing.


Very professional and I always feel I receive the best care.


Dr. Hansen has always been an excellent provider. He is very compassionate with me when giving me cortisone injections. He is also interested in my overall health and makes sure all areas of inflammation and pain get addressed.


Very Very please.......... He understood my pain and is helping me get it healed...... I will definitely come back to him. Also the help and atmosphere is very caring and cheerfull.


My son had a visit with Dr. Roth. He has been having some difficulty with neurological issues that nobody has been able to figure out, and she is doing her best she can to help my son.


Dr. Ripley was consistently competent and considerate.


All the staff was charming and Bret Paulson answered all my questions and even some I hadn't thought of. I really appreciated that.


Dr. Watson is a really good and dedicated doctor. He will be delivering my third baby in a couple of weeks. He is very smart and good at what he does, and I wouldn't want any other doctor.


Dr. Ripley was always very professional, friendly, and a pleasure to work with.


Dr. Parkey has always been amazing. We absolutely love him.


Dr. Dietrich was very prompt, treating me with respect, and made sure the Insurance Company needed to pay for the shot he had requested for the pain in my back. He had my best interest in mind, while treating me, and I am so thankful he is part of this office, and is one of my doctors. I am thankful for the caring staff at Lewiston Orthopaedics, and for the professional way the office is run.


Dr. Eggleston is my mother's doctor. I am Mom's caretaker. The doctor and staff are so kind. When mom has difficulties, they are right there for her. They are absolutely top notch in my book.


They take good care of me. And answered the question I have. Thank you so all of you.


Dr. Watson is always friendly, explains everything, is punctual, and is trustworthy. All of the staff is also very accommodating.


I felt important when offering information about my injury and was very happy with the care and time were given to me by Dr. Jelinek. I was relieved not to have surgery as a treatment due to the careful study of new X-rays taken before being seen by the doctor.


I had a left shoulder replaced with a reverse prosthesis. It's doing well so far just three weeks out of surgery. Not much pain, only on certain movements. The team did very well.


Dr. Hansen explained things and was very personable considering this was my first surgery.
He answered my questions and was very kind to include my husband and myself with all the steps involved.
Dr. Hansen also gave me x-ray pictures before and after the surgery at my six-week check-up and this was very
special for me to actually see the results of the surgery. His explanations about the surgery were important to me too.
He has excellent people skills and is very proficient in his expertise.


Dr. Watson listened to my concerns and responded nicely to them. He also did an exam to find out what I was talking about, which went well. He is very experienced.


I used Dr. Gregory Dietrich :
He was my surgeon for back surgery. He is fantastic. When I needed help I began to inquire of others who had had back surgery. The name everyone spoke of was Dietrich ....over and over. So the rest of the story is my most successful surgery the pinning L4 and L5. My recovery has been without problems. He is a wonderful surgeon.
I am totally thankful for his skills.


He was knowledgeable, informative, courteous, and professional.


Thad was quick, professional, and friendly.


Dr. Ripley is amazing.


Dr. Watson is amazing. He is always very friendly and knowledgeable. I could not ask for a better doctor.


Kaden seemed very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions regarding my upcoming surgery. And I had a lot of questions!


Dr. Eggleston and Catalyst Medical Group are always a first-class operation.


Dr. Hansen was very informative in telling me about the issues with my hands and wrists. I greatly appreciated Dr. Hansen's honesty and the options available for my situation.


Dr. Mallory in Express Care is amazing. She listened, noticed I was dehydrated, and hooked me up to an IV for a few hours. After I was tested, I found out I had the flu, and she made sure I’d be okay. She’s just awesome.


Very professional and explains things well.


Bret always listens to my concerns and desires and then works with me on my care plan. He is never aggressive with a "have to" or "must", but instead discusses my options, potential outcomes, and makes sure that I'm comfortable with what we decided to do. I appreciate this in any care provider and Bret does this far better than most!


I was last seen for a series of shots in my knees. Dr. Jelinek was, as always, very pleasant and professional. He's always willing to answer questions and explain in depth what he's doing and why. Excellent physician!


Outstanding professional!!! This Doctor gave me my life back. No, really. And I didn't have to get a second job to pay for it.


I could not be happier. Dr. Ripley makes me feel very important and genuinely cared about. I wouldn't ever consider changing doctors.


Doctor Jelinek was very cordial to me. He's such a nice young doctor. He listens to what you say and will sit there and talk and answer your questions without feeling that you are just another number.


Dr. Washington is one of the best doctors I have ever had. He is thorough, gentle, kind, and takes the time to explain meds and procedures. He also takes the time to make sure I understand what will happen. He is the best doctor ever.


Dr. Watson has been my OB for all three pregnancies and delivered all my babies. He has shown great professionalism, competence, and compassion as our doctor. My husband and I recommend him to all the new mothers we know.


I have always liked Dr. Jelenek. He has always treated me with utmost respect. He is always friendly and smiling which is a good thing when you are in a surgeon's office. He has done my previous surgery and I always recommend him to others when they need surgery.


Thank you, Dr. Lynch, for always listening, being kind, and being helpful with my baby.


Dr. Ripley is very helpful.


Very informative. Explained what was shown in my X Ray's. Very pleasant, not in a hurry, took time to answer my questions.


Dr. Krisher was outstanding, knowledgeable, and helpful.


Dr. Jelinek took lots of time explaining the surgical procedure I would be having. He answered all my questions in a way that was easy to understand. He was very friendly and personable.


Dr. Krisher is an outstanding pediatrician. He listens to you and your concerns. He and his nurse, Karla, are fantastic.


Dr. Hansen was very professional cordial and explained the whole situation with surgery and all. And I appreciate it. This took all the nervousness and doubted out of the procedure.


He successfully repaired both my shoulders with minimal downtime and I believe 90% range of motion compared to pre-surgery 50%. Would recommend your office and Dr. Hansen to everyone.


Dr. Hansen was very informative about my medical condition. Thank you, Dr. Hansen, for your kind and caring manners.


Dr. Roth is great with my kids. She gets straight to the bottom, so I don't have to try and figure out the answers.


I've seen Thad twice now. I am very impressed with his knowledge. He gives me plenty of time to listen and ask questions. I appreciate his demeanor, caring, and genuine concern for patient needs.


Very personable and explained xrays, injury, and planned procedure.


Dr. Roth is a very special person to our family. Having an incredible pediatrician for our three kids is everything. She always makes us feel comfortable, and my kids like her more than any other doctor they have seen. We have had some minor health issues that have felt overwhelming at times, especially when all three kids are sick. She always makes us feel like we are doing a great job as parents and that she knows how hard it can be. She has gone above and beyond several times, and I always leave her appointments feeling much better than before we went in. I hope she will stick around for at least 14 more years.


I felt cared for and very well-informed. I immediately felt that I was in competent hands. Dr. Dietrich was very professional yet compassionate. I would recommend Dr. Dietrich.


Dr. Hansen is the best doctor. I have been a patient of his for about 2 years. He listens and has great follow through. I have had problems with my shoulder for about 10 years and finally when I started seeing Dr. Hansen he found the problem performed surgery. Still have a way to go before perfect but so much better.


He was very professional and knowledgeable. An overall pleasant experience gave the circumstance.


Dr. Dietrich was perfect and explained the results of my MRI. He showed me the deteriorated vertebrae and where arthritis has set in and told that if he did a fusion to ease the pain, it would be covering so much of my back that I wouldn't have mobility and I like to garden and work, and I want to be active. My right leg sciatica bothers me and often wakes me up at night. It is intense to the point where I can't go back to sleep so lose about 2-3 hours of sleep per night. It usually wakes me up around 3-4 in the morning.


Polite, efficient, informational, direct, competent. Well worth the 75 mile drive.


I am very satisfied with Dr. Eggleston and her care team. She takes time to listen and addresses my concerns.


Gregory answered my questions and explained the pros and cons of my options, which I greatly appreciate.


Dr. Krisher is always helpful and thoughtful. I appreciate his caring approach to my children's wellbeing.


He was easy to talk too. Did a great job explain what he thought was happening to me and explained the procedure he did well? I am very impressed.


I could hardly walk before surgery. Three weeks out now, I walk with little pain up and down stairs and in and out of the car. I am so grateful for Dr. Hansen and Bret Paulson. I have my life back. Thank you so much. Life is good again.


Obray is a very caring person. He listened to my needs and took action immediately. It is nice having somebody who knows exactly what he is doing. He helped me with all of my concerns. The timing was expedient. The physical therapist that he referred me to is top-of-the-line. I am currently taking anti-inflammatory medication. My boot is off. His treatment plan is perfect. Thank you.


Dr. Roth has been amazing with all four of my children, and it's obvious she truly cares about her patients.


I had been to physical therapy for my back pain, had injections that only lasted a few months. I was told my hip was a big part of the problem. After surgery I have no back pain and I had suffered with the pain for 14 months or more. It was like a miracle.


Amazing experience. Was able to see my child quickly and have surgery right away. Great bedside manner. Loved he called home and checked on him. Thanks you


Dr. Weaver removed destructive liquid from my left knee because of the swelling. Then he inserted the cortisone. Dr. Weaver has a great personality and can communicate well. He also knows what he is doing and how to do it properly.


Dr. Roth is always attentive, provides great solutions, and provides detailed information about the visit. I appreciate her so much and am grateful for her care for my family.


Dr. Watson was timely and friendly. He remembered details of my past visits and my family as well. He also called me with my blood work results when they were available. I always appreciate Dr. Watson’s professionalism and candor.


Dr. Eggleston is exceptional. Her professionalism, patience, mannerisms, courtesy, and concern truly set a high bar for her colleagues to aspire to. I greatly appreciate her thoroughness, listening ability, advice, and recommendations. I know I am fortunate to have her as my primary care provider.


Dr. Washington is great and has helped my feet tremendously. All the staff is great as well.


I highly recommend K. Thueson and Dr. T. Flock who did my surgery. They are both very personable and very precise in their explanations. They don’t rush through your appointment, they take the time to cover any concerns you may have. They truly care about their patients.


Doctor Eggleston was very helpful, had a lot of information, and explained everything to me. I overall really like my doctor.


Dr. Beardsley explained what they would be doing to my knee. I was shown a model of a knee, and Dr. Beardsley answered all my questions.


Dr. Jelinek was very kind and informative. He explained our plan for the future in a way I could understand.


Dr. Hansen and his PA Bret Paulson are the best. They actually listen to what you are saying and then explain what is happening and what to expect.


From the time we walked in everyone was great. We were greeted fast and everyone we had contact with treated me great. Dr. Flock and his assistant were excellent in taking care of my injury. The follow-up visit was great the the cast lady explained everything to me, I felt like I was very important person. I highly recommended this place and the surgery place I can not thank everyone for the great care I received.


He was very kind, knowledgeable, and explained everything in detail. He was very kind to my very shy 4-year-old and tried to get on her level so she wouldn’t be so scared. Very caring.

I feel very confident in Dr. Eggleston as my primary doctor. She is a great listener, knowledgeable, and assertive in getting any testing done regarding any health issues I’ve had. I certainly feel like I have top-notch care with her as my doctor.


Dr. Watson has been amazing. He delivered my daughter last year in an emergency situation, and I always felt I was in competent hands. He is friendly and caring.


Dr. Roth took the time to listen to my concerns as a parent. She offered a follow-up appointment to ensure my daughter recovered after antibiotics.


He is very friendly and personable! PA Morton is always helpful and attentive to my needs and concerns regarding my health.


Dr. Eggleston is always quite thorough in her exams. She listens patiently and tends to err on the side of caution. When in doubt, she runs tests or X-rays to figure out the problem. If it’s outside her realm, she has no hesitation in referring you to a provider who can address the problem. I love her smile, her courteous attitude, and how caring she is. I have referred many people her way.


I am very pleased with Dr. Washington.


Greg was very knowledgeable and courteous, and just did a great job explaining the surgery.


Dr. Roth has always been attentive, educational, and informative. She makes herself available for follow-through care. She is an excellent provider.


We switched to Dr. Lynch when my kids' other doctor left. We have been very happy with her the few times we have been in. Dr. Lynch is understanding, awesome with the kids, and a great doctor. We couldn't be happier with the service we received from Dr. Lynch.


The doctor is always attentive. Listens and then answers my questions. Never rushes me out like I am a number. His assistant Candace is great also. Patient and answers my questions.

I have been going to lewiston orthopedic for years now had neck surgery and am very happy with dr. Dietrich this last time was for my daughter who is 15. He made her feel very comfortable and explained everything he was doing. Her experience was good. I wouldn't go anywhere else for our orthopedic health. I drive an hour for the continued professional excellent care I've always had. Appointments are always right on time. It's the best ran office I've ever dealt with. I suggest them to people I know.


Dr. Hansen is very professional and friendly. I have never felt like he was rushing during my appointments. He took the time to explain my knee problem and showed me my X-rays. He recommended that I wear a knee compression sleeve and took the time to show me on Amazon which would work the best. One of the best physicians I’ve seen for quite a while.

Dr. Washington is a great doctor who cares about his patients. He always takes the time needed to care for his patients and understand what needs to be done to help correct any issues his patients may have. I had to call one night after hours due to my cast being too tight and cutting off the blood supply to my toes. Dr. Washington instructed me to go to the hospital, and he called the hospital ahead of my arrival to let the hospital staff know what was going on and what needed to be done. Thank you for being a great, caring doctor.
