Not ever having cataract surgery, I didn't know what to expect. My mind was put to rest the minute I checked in! From the receptionists to the the prep nurses to the OR nurses and then to Dr. Roth, everyone had a calming effect on me! Efficient, personable, and caring are the words I use to describe the professionals I came in contact with! Back-to-back surgeries with no pain was more than I expected! It was worth the 1-hour drive from Bloomsburg to receive such excellent care! Thank you all!

The Entire staff was Friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in the door. They took the time to listen to not only me but anyone in the room, and still had everything done on schedule to keep everything flowing smoothly. If I had more eyes to be done I would still keep going back to them.

I had wisdom teeth removed today - I warned the staff that I'm resistent to a lot of oral pain meds and that they might need to be more heavy with anesthesia, because any cavity I've had filled in the past I've always been 100% aware for. The novocain just takes longer to kick in for whatever reason. Anyway, cue me waking up before they're fully done with surgery and I can feel them digging around in my jaw while I'm trying to groan that I'm awake as they're suturing up my gums. That felt horrible! I'm so glad I only have to get wisdom teeth out once if the anesthesia dosing here does such a poor job of listening to their clients. If your patient can talk before you're even done taking out impacted teeth, there's a damn problem!

Hands down, the best experience I’ve ever had while in a surgical setting. From Reception to the Nurse Donna who got me prepped and ready, to the anesthesiologist, to the post op Nurses who wheeled me out to the car. I was absolutely terrified! And the tears started rolling as soon as the IV went in because I knew it was only a matter of time. But the women in this facility went above and beyond to keep me calm and as comfortable as possible. I’ll never forget my experience here. Thank you Ladies!
