I went into TRIA because of complications from a wrist fracture. I saw Dr Vareka who did not even examine my wrist, read any past medical records form outside providers. He disagreed with my long time neurologist diagnosis and had the audacity to say to me "How many fractured wrists has your neurologist taken care of?". Seriously? My response to TRIA is, How many neurological issues have their orthopedic physicians taken care of?I will NEVER return to TRIA. I prefer to have my physicians give me a diagnosis in the field that they are board certified.

I hurt my left wrist while playing racquetball. I suffered through the nite in pain-- and not sure the extent of any injuries!A walk in to TRIA clinic-- no appointment-- was asked to fill out long form BUT then seen fairly quickly by Orthopedic Doc--an XRAY soon there after...Yep-- a cast for bone fracture..Wonderful treatment. Professional-- not speedy but very prompted.

I slipped and fell on the ice late on a Thursday night. I did not have a primary care provider. I was in too much pain to go to the hospital that night. While looking up urgent care providers on my insurance provider directory, I came across Tria. Tria's walk-in clinic is open 7 days a week from 8am-8pm. As soon as I walked in on crutches, I had 2 employees ask if they could get me a wheelchair. We were processed in, had x-rays, issued a CAM boot and left within 1 hr. I have been back for 2 check ups for my fractured fibula. Each visit took less than an hour.The staff is usually cordial and Dr. Noll has been great to work with. Did I mention I am a registered nurse?

I made the big mistake to give TRIA a try only due to location. What a big mistake. Doctor would never call me back when I had concerns, I could not even get a nurse address my concerns. Physical therapist tried to "crack my neck". HELLO, I had a neck fusion. Apparently physical therapist did not know that you NEVER crack a fused neck and the MD didn't care enough to return a phone call.

This clinic does not want to see you unless it involves surgery. They will not call you back if you have questions concerning treatment that they recommend.

Not impressed with the coffee bar, fireplace and the support staff who act like they are your best friend.More importantly I prefer to be seen by a physician or physical therapist who are good at what they do. I did not get that at TRIA. I saw three TRIA physicians who all misdiagnosed my medical issue and a physical therapist who caused me an increase of pain due to her own misdiagnoses. But, if the "look" of the clinic is what is important to you, TRIA has spent your money to get that "look".

I saw Dr. Mazzuca for a second opinion. Wish I would have gone to him first! I could see that he cared about me and spent all the time I needed in talking about my options. His nurse is also wonderful! He did not try to push me one way or the other on my final decision. I will go to only him if I have any future medical issues with my feet.

My 14-year-old son had ACL reconstruction surgery at Tria. Dr. Bradley Nelson is an excellent doctor. After the surgery he sat down at talked with us and answered all of our questions and did not make us feel rushed. The entire staff at Tria treated my son with care. He had never had surgery before and they did everything to make him feel comfortable. I would recommend Tria to anyone who needs orthopedic care.

I saw Dr Husband there who recommended I didn't need surgery for a chronic problem, but conditioning exercises. I like surgeons who only operate when necessary.

I have mixed feelings about TRIA in regards to their walk in clinic. I have been there numerous times and the first two times (Unrelated Visits) I went there it was fantastic service and the doctors really seemed to care. The thrid time I went there the wait time was awful and Dr was very rude and barely even looked at me so I was rather disapointed. Maybe it had something to do with how busy they were or something, but I felt like it was far from the first two visits I had there before.

This clinic is all about turning a buck. It's absolute ridiculous, having to pay $30 co-pay for 20 minutes of doctors and therapist time. I spend twice as long in the waiting room than visiting with the doctor. I don't recommend this play to anyone.

We have been there several times and have been very impressed with how professional everything is run. The doctors have been excellent. They know you want to keep playing whatever sport, and help you get back in the game as quickly and safely as possible.I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I was amazed that a healthcare place had people who greet you when you enter in the door, the facility was beautiful.
