  • “I have been doctoring with my foot/ankle since April, with another foot doctor. My daughter suggested that I should get a second opinion. Since I had knee replacements at your hospital and I am a patient of Dr. Dale, I called for a appointment with your Foot Doctor. What a wonderful Dr. Sticha is, he knew what was wrong with my foot in about 10 minutes, had X-rays that confirmed his diagnosis. Put me in a brace for Adult Aquired Flatfoot. The pain is gone and I am able to go on my walks. God Bless you, Dr. Sticha!!!”

  • “Dr. Sticha is so AWESOME!!!!! I really like it when my doctors have good 'bedside' manners and do not talk down to their patients. Dr. Sticha has a great 'BEDSIDE' attitude and he treats me like I am important and not a dumb hick. Keep up the good work Doc. I tell everyone who has a foot problem conversation with me to call and make an appointment to see Dr. Sticha and all the staff at Heartland Ortho. I also see a Dr. Eric Nelson and he is really great also. ”

  • “I have had very positive experiences with Heartland specifically Dr. Sticha. The entire staff treated me with kindness and professionalism when I had surgery on my left foot (5th metatarsal) and my triple ankle fracture on the right side. Surgery is never a pleasant experience but the Heartland staff answered my questions or concerns, handled me with kid gloves and gave me excellent care. It is a well-run office as I never had any trouble getting into to see the doctor and there was virtually no wait time once I checked in. Dr Sticha even came out to talk to me after I had left his office when I remembered I had another question. My ankle was broken in Arizona and the flight home to have Dr. Sticha perform the surgery was worth the discomfort and effort. I wanted the surgery to be in Alexandria with Sticha and it worked out well for me. I would recommend Heartland to anyone.  Thanks.”

  • “After almost two years, one previous surgery from another provider and visits with multiple doctors I had lost hope. I couldn't fathom living with the pain I had been experiencing the last two years for the rest of my life. Then I met Dr. Sticha and the staff at heartland orthopedic specialists. These folks are amazing! Turned my life around! The most knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, dedicated  and talented medical professionals I have ever been treated by. Dr. Sticha is a superhero in my book!”

    – Gail B.
  • “"After having ankle pain for 3 weeks and a few visits with Dr. Sticha, found a diagnosis for my foot. I had an MRI, which gave me results after two x-rays. He was very supportive and thorough. He also wants me to follow up with additional treatment to determine bone density." -- Judy H. ”
    – Judy
  • “"My appointment was on time. I was quickly in and out. They informed me of my options. I was also given effective treatment." -- Cheryl K.”
    – Cheryl
  • “"I made an appointment to find out about pain I was experiencing in my ankle. I thought perhaps it was coming from the bunion that had been changing over several years. I had heard good things about Dr. Sticha, but had never met him. What I liked the best about him was that he was straight-forward, told me what the problem was, and that it might help to have sole supports in my shoes. He wrote up the prescription for them and I was done. No mess, no fuss. That's the way I like it!!!! Thank you and I would definitely return if I have any other orthopedic issues." -- Diane A.”
    – Diane
  • “" My overall experience was great. I was well taken care of. I always felt like I was important and that they wanted to know how things were progressing with my injury. I am very thankful for the care." --Amy H.”
    – Amy
  • “"Everyone seemed very competent at my first visit, especially Dr. Sticha. My surgery went well, my pain was managed, especially staying ahead of it, proved to be best! I especially appreciated calls I was able to make with another patient, with same surgery only two weeks earlier.  It was ALOT more major than I had expected, recovery time longer, but in the end I feel blessed to have competent professional staff through my whole experience." -- Sally B.”
