It probably was not a well-kept secret on my part that I was nervous before my procedure. But thanks to the wonderful staff at TRIA my worries we laid to rest as soon as as I checked in for surgery. Marisela at the reception desk and the nurse, Jill, who got me settled in the pre-OP waiting room were so kind and reassuring. Anesthesiologists Dr. Swaim took extra time to explain the sedation that was ordered for me. Technician Chris easily and painlessly found my vein. Another nurse, Jill, made sure I kept comfortable with the warm air blanket while I was waiting to be wheeled into the OR. Anesthesia nurse, Carol, thankfully started the sedation so I didn't remember a thing other than the door of the pre-op room opening and being rolled out into the corridor. All of a sudden I woke up in recovery where nurse Deb gave me clear and detailed instructions how to care for my foot once I was released. A couple weeks later I met with nurse Helen who skillfully removed my sutures in the blink of an eye. I again wish to express my heartfelt thanks to you and your staff. - Brigitte H, Eden Prairie, MN
I was not diagnosed properly with my achilles tendon injury which lead to a rupture, so I went to see Dr. Mazzuca who was very personable and amazing. He knew exactly what was wrong and did not waste time and ordered a MRI, then surgery. I felt very safe and well taken care of by Dr. Mazzuca and his staff. The wonderful thank you card from the staff at TRIA was icing on the cake. I have a long road to recovery and am looking forward to my future appts at TRIA. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!! - Linda S.
