I'm very pleased with thr services provided to me in this health system. The staff is courteous and professional. I cannot say enough about Dr. Surace. He is a game changer. I came from a hip replacement procedure from UPMC. It did not go well and I was set back in my recovery. After researching second opinions , I came across The Cleveland Clinic and Dr Surace. The amount of skill, professionalism, and care he showed will keep me coming back here. His continued followup saved me from ANOTHER surgery recommended by my initial UPMC surgeon. Surace is a game changer!
