Checked in at front desk and sat down.
After about 44 minutes..I checked the front desk and she said “Oh..Dr Stanislaw is in Granite Falls today “!!!
Why didn’t she tell me that 44 minutes ago when I checked in!!!
I know people might get location mixed up…
Why didn’t they just TELL ME WHEN I CHECKED IN”

I had a lengthy wait today of two hours before I saw the doctor. I would probably have left if I hadn’t already had to pay the co-pay. That said, I do like Dr. Stanislaw. This is the first time I’ve ever had to wait that long.

This was my second surgery with Dr. Stanislaw and I would highly recommend him. Easy to talk to and explained all my questions. Also, the staff are great, especially Alex, Hannah and Kelly.

Dr Stanislaw is very good at what he does. I trust Dr S. to fix whatever part of me needs attention. I choose him to fix whatever skeletal part has gone to the "dark side".

Dr. James E. Stanislaw, M.D. graduated magna cum laude from the University of Notre Dame, where he was Phi Betta Kappa and president of the premedical honor society. He earned his medical degree at the Yale University School of Medicine. His passion for orthopedic surgery led to an internship and orthopedic surgical residency at the University Hospitals of Cleveland Metrohealth Trauma Center and Wade Park VA at Case Western Reserve University.
He served as Chief of Surgery at Caldwell Memorial Hospital and is a founding member of Carolina Orthopaedic Specialists, which is now EmergeOrtho.
He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, board certified and twice recertified in Orthopedic Surgery. He’s dedicated to bringing the latest proven advances and highest possible success rates in joint replacements, hand surgery, sports medicine, and arthroscopic surgery to his patients
His areas of interest include minimally invasive surgery, hand and upper extremity surgery, partial and total joint replacement, and arthroscopic reconstruction of the upper and lower extremities.
Dr. Stanislaw says, “My goal is to offer the very finest and technologically advanced surgical care, as well as attention to the smallest detail. I offer a clear explanation and a concise plan to fit the needs of my patients.”
“I am blessed by God to have a beautiful family of my children Gwyneth, Phoebe, Lilly, and Griffin. They are number one in my heart and understood from a very tender age that they are loved and that their Dad always wants to be with them whether it is school lunch time, a movie, soccer, dance, karaoke, swimming, cheerleading, skiing, boating, wrestling, a phone call, or just goofing around. I enjoy helping my children navigate life and enjoy being a support to them as they pursue their dreams. My children have seen their Dad working out in the gym and boxing, driving a race car, skiing down a mountain, playing the drums in a band, and going to church. Life is a balance, and I always remind them to be courageous and kind and enjoy the journey.”
