Very good experience. Went in for cataract surgery staff was great ! Friendly, knowledgeable, explained the details of the process. Anesthesiologist was superb in that I told her I was a bit nervous about “seeing things happening”. The entire process was handled very professionally. As well I can now see. Thanks to the surgeon Dr Moraitis

This is the best by far surgery center in western mass. Clean compliant and excellent staff. I be been there twice for two different procedures and wouldn’t go anywhere else. All the bud corporate hospital surgery center’s don’t even compare with this place.

Had arthoscopic knee surgery 8/27/20. With covid no one was allowed to come with me and my anxiety was super high.... The surgery ctr was extremely clean, professional, kind, compassionate and patient with me. Love my surgeon, anesthesia dr was wonderful, along with all the nurses esp Bridgett. I wish I could remember the other 3 nurses I had in OR and recovery... excellent! Thank you for taking great care of me and getting me through a stressful day! Onto recovery! Xoxxo

Analysis Shows Rise in Osteoarthritis
About 58.5 million U.S. adults have doctor-diagnosed arthritis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). By 2040, the CDC reports that the number is expected to increase to 78 million.
I recently had cataract surgery at the Surgery Center of New England. I have never had a procedure done where the process was this smooth. The entire staff was extremely efficient, knowledgeable and caring. In and out. Same high praises go for Springfield Eye Associates. Dr. Moraitis and his entire staff go over and above to make sure that everything before and after the surgery is their priority. I called the office on a Friday at 2 o'clock and needed a new contact lens and reported a floater. I got a call back 15 minutes later and was in the office immediately. All issues were taken very seriously and I saw 3 professionals and walked our a half hour later with all issues solved. Eye sight is precious and I rust that I am in good hands. You should too!
