Couldn't have asked for better treatment, just wish the results would have been better. BUT with my age, I am ok with that. I am just having to adjust/adapt/deal with that. Thank you.

I had to wait awhile but they we're busy. Once I got into room, all went fine. Dr. were friendly, facility clean.. Only thing it seemed like results took a few days longer but they can't help it if not in.. No complaints

Dr and staff are very nice and professional. I suppose rooms could be updated but I wasn't there to admire the decor. Doc thoroughly explained my options and respected my decision. Highly recommend!

Everything was professional. They kept me informed as to what was coming next right up until I awoke in recovery. All seemed caring and knowledgeable, a good combination in my opinion.

The facility at Osage hospital was perfect. Dr. Rattay explained the procedure with much detail. Surgery went very well and healing has occurred in the manner that he said it would. I would reccommend this team and place to anyone considering this type of surgery.

I am very pleased with the caring attitude of your entire office and staff. Dr. Jones referred me to Dr. Rattay, and for that I am grateful.

Biography

“I wanted to be a physician since I was very young. I was fascinated by the anatomy of bones, muscles, joints, tendons and nerves. I enjoy the diagnostic process and having the ability to dramatically change a patient’s life. I enjoy the interactions with patients and the fact that so many of the most complex hand and wrist problems are referred to me. “I look at every patient without preconceived impressions or prejudice. I try to relate to each individual. I am from Mason City, so I try to connect with each patient in some way personally. I try to sense their emotional needs and direct my words and actions to help them feel more comfortable. My ultimate goal is affect their lives in a positive way – relieving their pain while improving their function and quality of life.”
