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.

Quick, Thorough and Convincing
Was taken in at the indicated appointment time. Was treated courteously and quickly (and humorously) by the attending associate. Dr. Tressler came in shortly. Sized up my situation, put me thorough a couple of physical tests and told me my hip was in good shape and my problem was with the base of my spine and a pinched nerve. Referred me to another OSMS doctor and was gone - all in less than 15 minutes.

Care was negative. Waste of money on appointment.
Our experience with OSMS was not positive. We waited almost 45 mins before we saw a doctor. Our appointment was at 2:30pm; a doctor came into our room at 3:10. Prior to OSMO we had been to a urgent care facility and had x rays taken. The urgent care doctor saw no fractures but recommended we see a specialist due to swelling. So I made an appointment at OSMO to see a specialist. When booking the appointment I explained 2 times what my daughter needed to be seen for. I was booked with Dr. Tressler. When Dr. Tressler came in he told us the same thing urgent care told us.. no breaks and you need to see a specialist. Ridiculous! He was supposed to be the specialist I was coming to see. Dr. Tressler provided no answers. He questioned everything that could be wrong in an arrogant voice and made me feel like an inadequate mother. I felt like he wanted me to answer what was wrong with my daughter. If I knew I would not have come in. He didn’t show any empathy or concern.

Dr Tressler is an amazing surgeon!!
This visit was a follow up for a total knee replacement I had almost a year ago. I am so grateful. The surgery enhanced my life significantly. I can do so many of the things I had to give up because my knee was so painful. It limited my everyday activities. My only regret is waiting so long to have it done! Thank you Doc!! You gave me my life back!!
