Friendly, attentive and informative
Dr.Garland was very understanding and very patient with all my questions. He was extremely caring on removing my stitches when a couple of them were hard to remove.The girls putting on my splint were also very kind as was the girl taking my x-rays.I liked that I was able to see my x-rays before I left.Thank you….
Provider and medical assistant were both very helpful and kind. This was my first visit there.
Dr. Bruegel is phenomenal. I wouldn't change a thing and if I need arm or hand surgery again, I would want her to do it

I'm always pleased with the care I receive from this provider's office. Doug is excellent.
Explained diagnosis and treatment options for swan neck finger fracture clearly. Additionally, this Dr treated a superficial hand/skin wound, dressed it and offered treatment advice.
Dr. Bruegel is an incredible surgeon and a more incredible person.
Early appointment and out in 25 min for my after surgery.
No waiting time, very friendly and attentive staff, the doctor was very kind, guiding me on what to do next after my surgery, the care I should have, emphasizing if I had any questions... in short, I totally recommend them... very grateful for the service.

Please turn off volume of television in waitong area, its loud and no one watches it...perhaps mute and put on closed captions? Very annoying
Dr.Bruegel was very thorough compassionate and attentive. I was very pleased with my care and grateful for her expertise. The office staff also was wonderful. I was able to get my appointments quickly including getting me on the OR and OT schedule in a timely manner
Very satisfied with everything.
Excellent care from Dr. Brugel and her staff. My surgery was so smooth and she did a meticulous job on my right hand. I am already doing exercises at home and I start OT next week. I have full range of motion my right hand which is remarkable. I haven't had this in a long time. It feels great!!
All staff were professional.
Doug always does a great job explaining what the problem and best practices are to heal the injury.
I was able to get an appointment with one day notice. Mr. Garland was an excellent communicator, showed me my X-rays to explain the source of pain, and reviewed treatment options. He administered a hydrocortisone injection skillfully and explained follow up care. I would recommend him to friends.
Excellent exceptional care by Doug! Great experience!
Very concerned and caring
Keep up the good customer service and professional doctors
Doug was very caring and attentive. He really listened and explained everything in great detail.
Doug and his team are proficient practitioners. That's why I chose Southcoast for this service.
In addition to giving me a packet of post-opinstructions, I would have appreciated himreviewing at least the exercises with me.
I am greatly grateful for the support I had received from the surgeon and the team, thanks for your help
