On surgery day, he even moved the incision site a little to avoid my hand tattoo! He's pretty awesome! I did have some issues because my surgery was near Christmas so my sutures should have come out in 5 days. But I was scheduled for 12 days post op to get them out. I ended up going to urgent care the day afyer Christmas and got out on 2 weeks of antibiotics because it got infected and a couple areas tore and made a hole. Even the urgent care doc said those stitches need to come out ASAP! Stitches came out Monday, even the tech was saying they were left in too long. Oh well. Besides from the scheduling mess up, the fact I'm not in constant pain is wonderful! Thank you Dr. Laroche for helping me!

They are all about covering their behind and not providing the best care. Run by lawyers, not…read moredoctors. Tone deaf about their policies. Horrible cumbersome technology as well. 1) After reading about possible solutions to physical problems with your joints, it is apparent they are going to do the bare minimum in order to keep a low risk management profile. The lawyers run this place, not the doctors. 2) They want you to check in ahead of time via internet. Ok fine. But instead of a questionnaire where you check a box about cancer, diabetes, etc and hit submit at the end (like MOST doctors), you have to answer each question individually with a slow tedious dropdown with lots of clicks and processing time in between. Prepare to spend 45 mins. Again, its all about legal risk management for them. 3) They have more questions than the average doctor and frankly most of them are not relevant to your condition. Risk management. 4) They require you fill out the same tedious questionnaire and upload your insurance and driver's license EACH VISIT. I repeat EACH VISIT, even it if was just a week ago. Most doctors just want you to verify your contact information and emergency contact. Not them. 5) Additionally, they want you to show up 30 MINS BEFORE the appointment to "CHECK IN", even if you have already done with their tedious website and were there a week earlier. ***THEY WILL NOT SEE YOU OTHERWISE***. 6) So you get there and check in 30 mins early, but they make YOU wait at least 30 mins past the appointment before they call you back. So a full hour of doing nothing. And then you will wait another 15 mins before the doctor finally shows up. 7) They will NOT see you for more than one condition per visit. If you have a problem with your knee and your shoulder, they require you make separate visits with the long check in process despite the burden on the patient. TONEDEAF.

I just wanted to put in a few kind words in regards to my care at this medical facility. I was in…read morean auto accident and broke my clavicle. I was referred to UMC Orthopedic & Spine.

I went to see Angela Greenhalgh yesterday and she was the most uncaring and dismissive "doctor"…read moreI've ever seen in my life. It was my first and last time seeing her. She entered the room and didn't even introduce herself so I didn't even know her name for this review until I got my patient paperwork. My primary doctor referred me to Orthopedic & Spine Institute concerned that I have spinal arteritis. I told this to Greenhalgh and she just scoffed and said that I was too young to have such a problem. I'm 41 with quite a few deteriorating illnesses since childhood there is nothing "too young" but my body or condition. She didn't ask about the background of my medical condition or family history. When I told her about the neuropathy in both of my legs she looked at me shocked and said "you had diabetes??" opening my patient file would have shown her that fact, my generational diabetes is the first thing listed in my patient folder. She tried to A1C shame me when I told her my A1C is 7.6 then back tracked when I told her my A1C was 14.8 and I've been working hard to revert my A1C. She told me my problem would go away if I loss weight and exercise. -Again- because she didn't ask me anything about anything she would have known that I work out everyday already and go to Physical Therapy for my frozen shoulder and am already at my target weight goal. I'm already the smallest and most fit me of my life and the back problem came after. She never examined me physically she only looked at the x-rays and she said that it showed that my spine bones are deteriorating but apparently the solution for bone loss is to stop being fat She told me I was too young for back problems at least 4 times and that I just need to lose weight at least 3 times. Complete waste of time and money. I went to see my primary today and told them everything and they're referring me to a pain management specialist and a different orthopedic place. It's too bad because I already go to UMC Orthopedic & Spine Institute to see Dr Iman for my frozen shoulder and he's great. I was really excited to finally be seen about my back problems and just throughly disappointed in Angela Greenhalgh lack of skill and treatment. It just goes to show that one bad apple can ruin a whole tree because I never want to go back to this establishment.

He has always given me his undivided attention and was very open about my options. However, one of his staff members (Heather) last name unknown was always rude and above all LAZY. Her answers to my questions were answered with "I don't know" . That is unacceptable especially when a person is already stressed over the surgery. I'm sorry but if you don't know the answer then reply with "I don't know but let me find the answer". She had an entire month to prepare for my surgery paperwork, etc. Instead called me the week of surgery asking for EKG, bloodwork, etc. I replied with "yes, that was faxed over one month ago". She replied with "let me check". Ding....ding...yes, she received! I had to ask her if my physical therapy was set up already and of course not. Not to mention my pain medication nightmare. I went without pain meds at the most crucial time that I needed them. By the time I received something I was not allergic to....it was too late. There is so much more but I think you have the gest of it. I did my research on the surgeon but it's too bad we can't research the staff. I did express my concerns to Dr. Douds. I hope no one else gets the unprofessional treatment that I did. But don't be surprised!

On February 22, 2024, I had an appointment with Dr. Poelstra at 9:45 a.m., I arrived on time at…read more9:40 a.m. However, I had to wait till 1:20 p.m., before I saw the doctor. The doctor determined that I had severe stenosis on L4, L5, and needed a Laminectomy. So he arranged for surgery at Southern Hills Hospital on February 28, 2024 and my arrival time was set at 6:00 a.m., I had no one to take me to the hospital, so I contacted Lyft which arrived late at my residence. I arrived at the hospital at 6:25 a.m., at which I was admitted to the hospital after finishing the paperwork and doing routine blood work. Then I was escorted into a waiting cubical where the nurse attempted to place an IV into my right forearm. After poking me for several minutes, another nurse who was present in the room kept shouting at me that I was not relaxed and that it was my fault that they couldn't find a workable vein. They nurses finally pulled out the IV and had a more senior nurse come in to do the IV procedure. While the more senior nurse was looking for a workable vein, suddenly at 7.00 a.m., Dr Poelstra walked into the cubical and threw a temper tantrum and immediately cancelled the surgery blaming me for having been late and for getting annoyed at the nurse who had been shouting at me that it was all my fault. He was harsh and ordered me to go home. In my opinion, Dr. Poelstra was totally unreasonable since he had kept me waiting for hours for his office appointment on February 22, then when I was a few minutes late for the surgery, he punished me for something that was out of my control. Subsequently, I was escorted out of the hospital by hospital staff akin to a criminal.

My email account is shared with my wife, Ann. So, John is writing this review:…read more I first met Dr. Seiff when I was in the ER at Saint Rose Hospital in January of 2023 due to unrelenting pain in my lower back. I learned I had spondylolisthesis! I had been under the care of a chiropractor due to my lower back pain, but this was so incredibly paralyzing pain, I needed a wheelchair. The outstanding part of my history is that Dr. Seiff carefully and thoughtfully explained I needed PLIF posterior lumbar interbody fusion of my S1 to L5 vertebrae. Following the surgery and six weeks of PT, I returned to my active lifestyle! Fast forward to the summer of 2025 I was invited by my brother-in-law and nephew to quad ride in the back country of Southern Utah. Unfortunately, at 62 and a history of degenerative disc disease, I should have declined the offer. Well to make a long story short, it took a few months and the use of a cane and my stubbornness before I made an appointment to see Dr. Seiff again. I suffered a herniated disc of my L4, which required another emergency surgery, because I also had the onset of Cauda Equina Syndrome! That had a nightmarish sound to it! So, on October 8, 2025 I had another PLIF and I am the proud owner of new titanium rods, screws and a new bone graph for my L4 this time. In conclusion, I am profoundly thankful that Dr. Seiff has put my lumbar spine back together twice! I love this man for his professionalism and dedication to me and understanding the importance of returning to a healthy lifestyle! However, I will now act my age and forever avoid long back country quad rides, no more downhill skiing, and other over the top activities that might compromise my spine again. Finally, I am especially thankful to Dr. Seiff because I have returned to being able to play with my six grandchildren! Thank you Dr. Seiff! He is truly a wonderful man

This is my first time at this office, two hrs later and no injections! I haven't started any treatment yet, although I thought I would be getting a TPI. During my appointment, I was informed that they would have to request the notes from my cervical medial branch block doctor and my previous pain management doctor. This was a little disappointing given that I waited two weeks for this appointment and had previously provided my MRIS. There was no previous mention about my prior doctor's notes. I was also informed that they need to check for pre-approval for my tpi. Again, I explained to this doctor that my insurance doesn't require pre-approval. I called my insurance as soon as I left this office and they informed me that they will contact pain specialists of Nevada in the morning since they were already closed to inform them of their procedure. Dr Nguyen discussed other options with me like an epidural. We also discussed their MLS laser while I was there. I did explain to Dr helmi that I had some red laser treatment at a prior chiropractic office. He claimed that laser was a superficial laser that only went skin deep. Their laser supposedly goes deeper. Two days later, I called in and spoke to I Sandy.
