My February hip surgery was not my first at Southwoods, but it was my first with Dr Ames. I was impressed with his knowledge, skill and professionalism. He and the whole staff are a credit to Southwoods.

Everything was unbelievable at the Surgical Hospital! I’m talking everyone involved with my care – from registration to the nurses to the team caring for me after surgery, all the way to probably the least-heralded workers, food service. I can’t thank you enough for the excellent food and care Southwoods provided me!

“I recently had a hip replacement done by Dr. Tyler Ames. He explained everything in great detail and made sure all our questions were answered. The prep nurse, nurse and therapist were all incredible. Once I got home, the home nurse and physical and occupational therapists couldn’t have been nicer. Kudos to Mr. Muransky for running a top-notch operation!”

“I had a knee replacement at the Surgical Hospital at Southwoods with Dr. Ames. All I can say is what a great doctor and what a great hospital! Everyone was beyond nice, helpful and compassionate. Other hospitals in this area have no comparison. Maybe they could learn a thing or two! And a big shout out to my home health therapist, Rebecca. Unbelievably caring and on time, each and every visit. She is an extraordinary person. Thank you Southwoods!”
– Robert from Cortland
“This is my third time having a procedure done at Southwoods, and I must say this is THE BEST level of care in the Boardman and surrounding area for a procedure. The staff is awesome and Dr. Dessecker is just fabulous! Southwoods makes you feel at home. Great level of care, awesome food, and the cleanliness is a 10+. Nowadays, we are limited on local options and many patients end up going to Cleveland. I will be the first to say you do not have to go a distance for a great outcome! Please choose Southwoods; you will not be disappointed!”
– Latoya from Youngstown
“I was referred by my PCP and couldn’t have been happier with Dr. Tyler Ames. Thought I had a bigger problem with my knee than I did. Dr. Ames was able to diagnose me immediately, and after two sessions with a physical therapist I was back to normal again. Easy breezy. No surgery was needed, just simple stretches and my knee is back to normal. Want to give a shout out to the entire staff at the Southwoods orthopedics location on Belmont. Really friendly and professional. I truly recommend this facility and Dr. Ames!”
– Tari, from Hubbard
“My experience during the 30 hours I was a patient at The Surgical Hospital at Southwoods has to be the most unexpectedly positive medical experience of my life. All of the staff – from the front desk to housekeeping to the nurses – were so caring, attentive, friendly and professional! They were the BEST! I sent a letter to Mr. Muransky to recognize the individual staff members (whose names I got) that took such great care of me. Everyone made me feel as though I was the only person in the building. I can’t imagine that anyone would look forward to any type of surgery, but if surgery is the only option…then Southwoods is the only answer! Thank you so much for taking such good care of me!”
– Nancy from Girard
“Dr. Grisafi is a ‘top-notch’ spine surgeon! I can’t thank him or his staff enough for everything they’ve done for me. No more walking in pain, standing for just short periods in pain – I am back doing things I did before my back pain started. They have given me a wonderful gift – my life back! My family and friends are truly amazed at how well I am doing. I can’t thank them enough. Wishing continued success to the Southwoods team!”
– Charles from Beaver Township
“I would highly recommend Southwoods Hospital to my family and friends. My surgeon, Dr. Stefancin, and his staff were very nice as well. Once I was ready for my procedure, we met the surgical team who were also very nice. The therapists who worked with me were so helpful on my exercises. The food was excellent and so was the staff. Southwoods is beautiful!”
– Betsy from East Liverpool
“I felt safe and secure and that the staff cares from the first day of coming to the hospital until I left. My family felt that they were welcome and could not believe the treatment we received. It was the best – teach other hospitals your method.”
– Carolyn from Girard
– Roseanne from Greenville
– Tammy from Boardman
“From my first appointment thru surgery and each follow up appointment, I was provided excellent care with genuine concern. The entire staff is amazing. Each of them are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The office staff went above and beyond in helping with the paperwork for insurance. Dr. Grisafi told me the nerve pain would be gone after surgery – and it was! My one night stay at Southwoods was also a great experience. The nurses and aides were very helpful and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Grisafi and his staff. Thank you to the entire staff!“
– Vickie from Hookstown, PA
“Dr. Ebert and his staff are phenomenal! I highly recommend!”
– Brandy from New Middletown
