Dr. Nowell

From Physicians' Clinic of Iowa

I like the Surgery Center Cedar Rapids for several reasons. It is a very small, quant environment, it's almost like your own home. When you walk in, everyone is very friendly and they are used to taking care of joint replacement patients. It is a very friendly environment to have your surgeries. The Orthopedic team at SCCR is extraordinarily good. I feel the SCCR is very patient friendly and they look forward to helping take care of patients from the time they walk into the center. The reception staff is very friendly. They talk to you and answer any questions you may have. They make it comfortable for not only you as the patient but for your family or care giver.
