As a new patient it Was my first time there. I was greeted with a friendly smile. I was very impressed with how quick they got me in to see the Dr. The nursing staff was excellent & friendly. The Dr. Explained to me how my condition looked & how he is going to fix it. If the clinic is that good, can't wait to get my procedure done at the Hospital!! Highly recommend Ortho-Indy A+
