  • “My daughter was the one being seen. I appreciate that Dr. Mangold took the time to talk with us, answer any questions (sometimes twice), and was flexible with PT locations. The staff person at the window doing the intake was great, and the exiting staff personnel was very friendly and accommodating. ”

  • “I was very pleased with Dr. Lee. She took the time and patience to listen to what I had to say, then explained a game plan which I could understand and feel secure about. She also took the time and showed a genuine interest in me as a whole patient, even when our conversation veered off the topic of my shoulder. I am happy to call her my doctor.”

  • “Dr. Guinto allowed me to be grateful for my life again. No, I’m not a drama queen. With his knowledge and precision, he gave me a steroid shot in my hip, and I am loving life again. I had osteoarthritis in one hip from water skiing into a dock when I was younger. With just getting spine surgery in October from scoliosis, I couldn’t do a hip surgery because I had no muscle tone. Dr. Yuh referred me to Dr. Guinto. They were both refreshing, putting me first, and I can’t thank them enough. I can’t forget the whole staff that was so kind to me. I thank the nurses for sending me a card on top of their kindness. My goal is to water ski next summer after finishing my PT.”

  • “Dr. Guinto is such a blessing. I suddenly developed severe muscle spasms three months after my spinal surgery. My excellent surgeon, Dr. Yuh, referred me to Dr. Guinto, and I was able to see him the following week. During my initial visit on a Thursday, he felt my back and said yes, we need to get you in right away. He even accompanied me to the scheduling nurse to ensure I was seen at the first possible appointment. He also said another doctor has the sonogram machine at 9 am, so let’s get her in at 8 am. He was caring and attentive throughout the procedure, helping me breathe through the pain, continually asking how I was doing, and responding to the muscle spasms (twitches). What a miracle he and his staff have been to me. He gave me clear instructions on my post recovery and reiterated that I should call with any questions or concerns. Sierra Pacific Orthopedics is amazing. Everyone from the front office check-in to the 2nd-floor check-in receptionist is fantastic, friendly, efficient, and caring. Certainly, a dream team, and I would highly recommend this facility and doctors to anyone experiencing pain and needing answers. ”

  • “I felt Dr. Simons was very thorough. He took his time and made me feel as though he cared. When I told him my symptoms, he listened and asked me questions. It felt good to finally see a doctor who understood that I was really in pain and not have to Zoom in where doctors can’t touch those spots that are hurting. I have been in severe pain for five months and felt Dr. Simons took his time. ”

  • “It's been six days out of surgery, and I am so happy with my results. My knee replacement from 16 months ago was such a failure. I was so bummed it never was right. Dr. Simons told me it was no problem and he would have me feeling better a week after surgery. I was told that the last time. Wow, what a difference with the right surgeon. Total revision, I'm walking with no pain and couldn't be happier. This doctor was a miracle worker.”
