What a wonderful place to be taken care of by a lovely, caring and professional team. Everyone was extremely pleasant and polite from checking with Pamela at the front desk. to checking out of this lovely environment where everyone was exceptionally pleasant. My Doctor, Dr. Bub anaesthist and nurse explained everything and ensured my understanding. I felt comfortable and safe in their care. On observation as a medical professional myself, their care exceeded my expectation. Thank you Dr. Bub and the staff of the Surgery Center of Allentown. I highly recommend Surger Center of Allentown. Dr Bub and the team.

The Surgical Center is the best place I've ever had surgery. From reception, pre op post op, everyone treated me so wonderful and I know they really cared about all the patients. I need more surgery in the near future and the surgery center I will definitely return to. If I could give you 100 stars I would. My surgeon,Dr. Weiss is the best orthopedic surgeon, and i will refer the whole center and OAA to everyone. Thank you so very much.. I just had my second surgery by Dr. Weiss and his Team. Outstanding OR experience by everyone. Excellent service from beginning Valet all the way to the discharge Check in Registration was fast and friendly. Rebecca and all the team in pre op was super nice and 100 percent caring and professional. The Anesthesiologist I was talking to in pre op was so very kind and smart. Really understood all my medical needs and records. Post Op experience was absolutely amazing. Everyone truly cared about you did a great job all together. May I say Dr. WEISS is the kindest and most important and knowledgeable surgeon and is always soft spoken with a smile. Smartest Orthopedic Surgeon I have ever had. Thank you Dr. Weiss and everyone involved during my surgery. And as usual, the facility is super clean. I have 1 more surgery to do in a couple months. Looking forward to coming back. Thank you everyone at OAA and The Surgical Center. Wish I could give you 100 Stars. I was at the Surgical Center this March and saw Dr. Wertz. Again 100 stars for the entire staff and Dr. Wertz for a very great experience. Everyone is very pleasant, professional and very caring. From reception all the way to discharge, everyone involved is the best. Thank you all for making my procedure as easy and comfortable as possible. In April 2026 Dr. Wertz performed facet joint injections to my spine. The experience was 100 stars. The facility, staff, and everyone before during and after my procedure was very pleasant, patient, and exceptional. Dr. Wertz is doing an incredible job trying to get me feeling less pain to an already worn out spine I have. Thank you so much to everyone.
