South Coast Orthopaedic Associates PC

Great place. Tricky location. All the way in the back as opposed to first office when you turn into the complex.nHowever, once there the staff was kind and I got seen in no time at all. The place is super clean.nThe doctor was friendly and throughout the process was effective and professional. We quickly came to a diagnosis(I have been waiting what seemed like forever prior to visiting here)nI'm just super happy with this place.

The best ortho doctor ever. Or should I say surgeon. Dr. Hobson is not only skilled but is kind and attentive to a patience needs. His after care is also the best. No surgery then (as others have done) no no show, he and his asst. are there every day and checking on you even behind the scenes. If you are looking for a GREAT medical professional to do whatever if possible to make you better you need to go no further. The staff are also the best. Please know and trust this review.

Excellent care from Dr. Johnson last year for my spine, and this year from Dr. Bell for my knee! Office staff were kind and understanding. A+ all the way around!

Doc Johnson is a arthritis EXPERT! He has zero knowledge on necks and backs. He is a joke and I would avoid him like the plague! All of your pain will be due to arthritis. Unless of course your spine is sticking out of your skin, then maybe he will diagnose you correctly. Avoid.

In 2018 I visited Dr Garry Vallier for an evaluation of a very sore, stiff and inflamed left hip. With X-ray images, his interpretation was that I had good cartilage spacing, and I should use NSAID and glucosamine. His words were.. no doctor will replace those joints. This diagnosis was refuted by two highly respected osteopathic surgeons out of area. Both of my hip joints became painful from cartilage breakdown, and I now have two replacements. Dr Vallier’s diagnosis cost me years of pain, and trips to Portland seeking special services based on his opinion. From this experience I cannot recommend this practice.
