My wife had a hip replacement at the hospital 9 days ago with Dr. Ames. Such a great experience at the hospital with the doctor, nurses, staff, and food! Came home the next day and under home health from Southwoods. Catherine (therapist) and Abbey (nurse) could not be any greater than they are. A pleasure to work with them. She’s had very little pain and is walking around the house carrying her walker or cane. This has been as good an experience as we could have imagined for these circumstances!

“I can’t believe what a kind man Dr Ames is. Made sure it was my hip causing pain and not my back. On the 2nd appointment he scheduled me for hip replacement. I can actually walk now without a limp and without pain. Dr Ames himself called me twice at home to find out how I was doing and to answer a question! My brother needs a hip replacement and I’ll be making sure he used Dr Ames! Top notch Dr you can’t go wrong using him. Thanks Doc.”

“I had a hip replacement with Dr. Tyler Ames. The entire process from seeing Dr. Ames in the office, to the care that I received from him after the surgery was phenomenal. The staff at his office as well as the home therapists, home health care, and out-patient therapists also need recognition. Thank you Dr. Ames, and the entire staff at Southwoods Health for all that you do!”

“Dr. Ames is a wonderful, talented surgeon with a great bedside manner. He is very knowledgeable about his craft and a kind, caring doctor. Everything went well with the surgery and I feel like my quality of life has been improved tremendously since surgery — due to him!”

“I just had my one year check-up on my first knee replacement and 9 month check-up on my second. Dr. Ames is nothing short of performing miracles. I had so much trouble walking without being in pain. Two weeks after my first surgery I was driving, not using a cane or walker, and not taking any pain medicine! I had the second knee done three months later, and one week I recoverd as well! I feel like there is nothing I can’t do. My knees work like they did when I was a kid. If you had to pick a doctor to do your knee, you don’t need to look any further, believe me. I am 60 years old and he gave my life back to me and I am so very thankful.”

“I had a right total hip replacement surgery done 12/2024 with Dr. Tyler Ames. I’m feeling much better, he did a great job! I had to stay overnight in the hospital and the staff at the Surgical Hospital was also so nice and kind to me, they treated me amazing. I used Southwoods for my home health services, PT and OT, too. I would recommend Southwoods Health for all of these services.”
