Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Vadala is the best hand surgeon I have been to. I have had two other hand surgeons that I would give a one star rating. she is excellent, not only in her Surgery skills, but her communication skills, her warmth, and understanding. Torrie Swift at the front desk is also very warm, helpful, and understanding. They make a great team!

I went to tri-city orthopedics a few years ago
Dr. Vadala was the doctor I had and also did the surgery. She did a great job for what was going on. I still have problems with my wrist and still pretty painful and irritating but that isn’t because of her. She did an amazing job on the surgery that my wrist is much more tolerable than it would be if I had listened to the doctors from L&I. She is very professional, kind, and helpful in setting up a routine for at home therapy to make the best of the situation. Definitely recommend her for surgery if it is necessary

Dr. Vadala is an amazing surgeon. She performed a carpal tunnel release on my right hand. I have had no numbness in the hand since surgery. Also, there is no scar. In addition, she is very personable and answers all questions. She will be performing the same surgery on my left hand in two weeks.
