I recently underwent surgery with Dr. Anderson to repair a torn meniscus, and I am beyond impressed with the outcome. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, Dr. Anderson demonstrated unparalleled expertise and professionalism.Before the surgery, I was apprehensive about the procedure and concerned about the potential pain and recovery process. However, Dr. Anderson alleviated all my worries with his reassuring demeanor and thorough explanation of the surgical plan.Following the surgery, I was amazed to find that I experienced zero pain. It was as if Dr. Andersons skillful hands had magically erased any discomfort. The day after the surgery, I began my rehabilitation process, and to my delight, my knee felt remarkably good. I couldnt believe how seamlessly Dr. Anderson had repaired my meniscus; it was almost as if no one had operated on my knee at all.Throughout my recovery journey, Dr. Anderson and his team provided exceptional support and guidance. They were always available to address any concerns or questions I had, further enhancing my confidence in the entire process.In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Anderson to anyone in need of orthopedic care. His expertise, compassionate approach, and remarkable surgical skills have truly transformed my life. Thanks to him, I am now able to enjoy activities without the burden of knee pain. Dr. Anderson is, without a doubt, a top-tier orthopedic surgeon who prioritizes the well-being and satisfaction of his patients.

Easy to make appointment, large waiting area and plenty of parking. Dr. Anderson listened to all questions and concerns. He went over all treatment options and was very thorough. Highly recommend him and the office. The girls in X-ray were very welcoming, respectful and genuinely cared about you being in pain.

Scott Anderson is THE BEST Doctor. I see him for my knees, and now a recent clavicle break. He has excellent bedside manner, is so pleasant, leaves you well informed, and just the kindest sweetest man! I adore him!

HORRIBLE Customer Sevice and Patient Care!I experienced an injury to my right calf while playing softball. The urgent care provided crutches and a bandage and given a referral to Monterey Spine and Joint. I arrived to the office of on crutches. The staff was very insensitive to my slow mobility starting with the front counter. Dr. Anderson was pleasant and informative. He provided me with a boot to help with my mobility and healing but the young lady that showed me how to wear the boot didnt put it on correctly so I couldnt stand in it.I removed the large boot and placed it back into the plastic factory bag it was packaged in and proceeded to leave with my crutches and boot in tow. I couldnt carry the boot and use the crutches. NONE of the assistants for Dr. Anderson, who were either standing around or sitting at the counter, offered to help me to my car. Neither did Dr. Anderson. I tied the plastic bag with boot inside onto the screw nut on my right crutch and proceeded to leave the area. The door leading out to the lobby doesnt have a handicap button so I had to navigate out of the door carefully to avoid falling. AGAIN, no one was helpful. I hobbled passed the receptionist area and out of the office without one offer of help. A complete stranger outside of the office asked me if I needed help to my car which way across the parking lot. ABSOLUTELY would NEVER recommend this Orthopedic office to anyone. Im currently looking for another Orthopedic office because of my very unpleasant experience.

Some days after my accident, I met Dr. Anderson. We were near the time he likes to operate by.Which immediately meant he said, Things are gona happen really really fast.Authorization to imaging scheduling prep surgery rehab, (thanks Bob!) and so much more.I cannot say enough about how well this team worked together to get me buttoned up.On top of that the injury healed extremely well, in large part Im sure due to prompt surgery and a Doctor aiming for perfect.I feel lucky to have landed where I did.

Great experience at Monterey Spine and Joint with Dr. Anderson. The communication from the facility and scheduling was a breeze. I was able to check-in online before the appointment so there were no delays on the day of. Dr. Anderson described the issue with my meniscus tear effectively and made sure I was comfortable with the suggested next steps. We scheduled surgery for the beginning of November and the surgery went very well. Just got off a follow up call (2 days after the surgery) from Dr. Anderson where he checked in on me and gave me more details on what happened in surgery (since I was still sedated on the day of). All-in-all a great experience and I would recommend Dr. Anderson to anyone in a similar situation.

Great post op visit. Very clear explanation, going over at least 10 photos per knee, in color, showing every part of the knee and the meniscus etc. Plenty of time for questions and Dr. Andersons answers were clear, satisfying, and laid out the path to recovery in a comprehensive manner.

Dr. Anderson saw me in the ER following a bicycle accident. The evaluation in the ER, 2 days in the hospital ICU and follow up in the office were complete. CTs were done. Treatment covered the pain. I anticipate a complete recovery

Dr.Anderson actually listens to you. And your pain. Lately Doctors( to me) don’t seem to listen. But he does. He is also very nice. These things I say may be simple. But he takes time explaining my diagnosis, and treatment options. His staff is equally capable! Thank you Dr. Anderson for listening!!

In my opinion Dr. Anderson is an excellent professional and surgeon. On 10/31/22 he performed surgery on my left knee and I couldn’t be happier and thankful with the results and just the overall healing process. He did a remarkable job!Thank you Dr. Anderson for your commitment to excellence and attention to your patients.G. Coll

I had an 80% tear across my meniscus on my right knee. Dr. Anderson did the procedure to repair my knee. He was very professional and his bedside manner is on point. It put my mind at ease to know that I had a very competent doctor working on my knee. The procedure went perfectly and I have no complaints. I would highly recommend Dr. Anderson.

I have been having knee problems since 2012. Dr. Anderson was great at finding what the root of the problem was and made a recommendation for surgery. Two weeks after the surgery, I am in less pain than I have been in a long time. I have started post-operation physical therapy and getting stronger by the day. Thank you Dr. Anderson for helping me get back to pain free.

I appreciated the time Dr. Anderson spent explaining his findings, answering my questions and laying out options. He shared his knowledge and recommendations in an understandable way. His manner was friendly yet professional. My wait time upon arrival was very minimal and I found the office staff to be efficient yet pleasantly personable. A top notch experience!

At Monterey spine & joint Dr.Anderson has been the specialist reviewing my case. I broke my right ankle 2 months ago and Dr.Anderson and the staff have been amazing. I was seen promptly and was explained in detail the next steps that needed to be taken. The surgery was a success and now I’m starting to walk again. I recommend Dr.Anderson and the team at spine & joint. They are attentive, accesible and incredibly knowledgeable. It’s great to have familiar faces on every follow up.

I left Dr. Anderson feeling worse about my injury instead of feeling better. My appointment was rushed, and I got little information about my injury and treatment options. He spent only about 5-10 minutes with me, and didn’t go over any of my imaging. When I was asking questions, he seemed impatient and then then told me he needed to see other patients. I am hoping my second appointment will go better.

In July of 2021 I experienced a serious and complicated athletic injury to my left knee. Initial repair of the quadriceps tendon healed well--unfortunately, a little too well, with considerable scarring and adhesions within and around the joint. I was referred to Dr. Anderson for evaluation, who subsequently saw me for athroscopic debridement and surgical manipulation of the joint in November. But again, unfortunately, I developed adhesions and physical therapy was not adequate to prevent this. Dr. Anderson followed me carefully, and he and I agreed that a second arthroscopy was indicated. He performed this at the end of February this year, and I have had an aggressive program of PT, following his directives carefully--and am now experiencing normal range of motion, a huge reduction in swelling and discomfort, and looking forward to resuming my normal athletic activities within the next couple of weeks. Throughout all of this, Dr. Anderson has been hugely supportive, professional, thorough and precise with every aspect of his surgical care, my postoperative care, and guidance for me and my physical therapy team. His office staff are simply the best--always available to answer questions, deal with concerns, scheduling procedures and follow-up so that there has always been a sense of HIS team being MY team. One more thing. Many staff at CHOMP (nursing, medical assistants) have commented to me personally that Scott Anderson is one of the finest surgeons they work with, that everything he does he does with precision and care, and that he is a pleasure to work with. As a retired surgeon myself, those comments mean a great deal. Im very grateful to have had such fine care!

Had a bad bike crash at Sea Otter that resulted in a lage gash in my arm. Always interesting to look into your body and see all the internals.... Dr Scott sewed me up in a tent on site and everything healed beautifully. So grateful for his calm professional work!
