Very qualified orthopedic specialist, took time to explain everything.
Dr. Creighton and his associate listened very carefully to my story. He was able to pinpoint the bone and tiny joint in my hand that was the culprit. I’m very satisfied with my service Today!!!

Excellent explained info!
Very professional and spot on w/diagnossis!! Over an hour wait to see the Dr.
All my experiences with FOI doctors/staff have been extraordinary. Doctor Sellman kept me walking for two years then referred me Dr Maxson for surgery on both knees. I hit balls this week for 1st time in 2-years. Dr. Maxson referred me to Dr Creighton I saw today for hand problems. I could not be happier or recommend these Doctors or Organization more highly.
