Julia and the staff at Alta are great...I felt listened to, and that my concerns were taken seriously. I would definitely recommend Alta if you need orthopedic care.

Couldn’t be happier. I had severe pain in my thumb and was able to make an appointment within a few days. Saw Laura who took a few X-rays and gave me a cortisone injection which hit the spot. She is always kind, caring and very good at her job. Thanks again Laura for helping me in my time of need.

Cody K. • November 19, 2025

Dear Julia, From what we can determine, the results of my EKG were not sent to your office. I left a message for Madyson but basically, I went to a cardiologist for the irregularities in my EKG. He would not approve me for surgery without a cardiac workup which I am now completing. But It will not be done by November 4 and the surgery cannot take place on that date, Probably, It will now go into the new year. Sorry for the mix up but thanks for your help. Best wishes, Mary Seliger

Ruston C. • August 29, 2025

Laura has always been amazing! She is such a positive person and has a kind and gentle soul, it's impossible to leave without feeling that she genuinely cares about your well-being. I'm so fortunate to have somebody like, Laura, tending to my healthcare. With most physicians and physicians Assistant's anymore, Communication is limited to what is being read off of a computer screen, It's almost as if there is already an assessment and a plan before you even walk through the door. Laura is amazing, there is true eye contact and communication, you will leave your appointment feeling like you are being taken care of!

Max O. • August 27, 2025

Reception Staff was pleasant, welcomed me with a smile during check in. Laura the PA was awesome! Kind, patient, explained everything she would do during my visit and gave me post op instructions. Removed stitches without any discomfort and scheduled my next appointment on the spot. Excellent patient service!
