The staff at Central Michigan Orthopedics is fantastic! My daughter had an injury right before a major holiday, and they got us in right away. Our appointment was quick but thorough, with almost no wait time. The staff called later the next week to check on her and make sure things were going ok. I have full confidence in Dr. Moutsatson and would recommend him to anyone!

Always a great experience. Can schedule like an urgent care and get x-rays there, getting care faster and the process moving faster. Dr. M. Moutsatson did an amazing job on my knee scope and catching a shoulder problem before surgery. Dr Cairnduff saw me today and I felt just as comfortable and confident with her.
