I had surgery on my meniscus for days ago. This facility made the my whole experience run smoothly considering the the time of the Covid-19. They made sure everything that needed to be done was done. They were informative. All that were involved on surgery day were absolutely professional, kind and with a sense of humor. Highly recommend
The staff is extremely professional. From the time you walk in to the time you leave, everyone explains very clearly what is going to happen, To me that is important. They are very personable. Other surgery centers I've attended through the years I always felt treated like a number. Wouldn't go anywhere else for surgery. I plan on having my other hip done and Mission Valley is my first choice !
The surgery center, the staff and the surgery experience was great for my mom. Everyone is professional, patient and pleasant. The nurses take the time to explain instructions and make sure the patient understands. Thank you everyone and thank you Dr. Cutuk and Dr. Walker
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of knee pain in adults over 50. By age 70, about 27 percent of adults have knee osteoarthritis. Some common symptoms include swelling, loss of mobility, stiffness and chronic pain.
Hip and knee replacement surgeries are among the most common procedures performed today, with over 1 million surgeries performed each year. With baby boomers aging, the demand for total hip replacement and total knee replacement surgeries will continue to rise as more Americans are diagnosed with osteoarthritis.
According to the CDC, over 54 million adults in the United States have arthritis, and the number may approach 78 million in 2040. The most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis, which affects over 32 million Americans.
All of the staff, from clerks to nurses, were patient and kind to everyone. They took time for each person, listening to them and explaining things as needed. I'm sure they have to explain the same thing many times every day, but they did it very lovingly.
