Surgical Associates of the Mid-Cities

"I have had an amazing experience with this office. From Erica getting me scheduled in to see the doctor sooner than originally planned for. Jodi being great and helping to schedule my surgery and following up with me. Dr Klienschimdt performed my surgery, not only did he arrive to get started early (which was awesome) he was very informative and caring. My out patient procedure went beautifully and I would 100% recommend him and his office staff to anyone. Thank you all so much for being so patient, caring, informative and most of all, a GREAT doctor!"

"I had a great experience here from start to finish, including the front office staff. The staff was courteous and professional. My surgeon was Dr. Elieson, and I could not have been more pleased - wonderful, skilled surgeon who seems to genuinely care about his patients and their overall well-being."

"I am just finishing up my 2nd visit at this practice for similar procedures in the last 7 years and I am extremely grateful to have had the best doctors (Thomas Purggett and Cristina Cueto) offering the best overall service that I could ever hope for. More recently my PCP doctor asked me if I had a preference for surgery and without batting an eye I told him I'd like a referral to this practice. I was assigned to Dr. Cueto and once again (just as the 1st visit in 2016 with Dr. Purggett) a stellar performance by the office staff, Dr. Cueto and her Medical Assistant Lourdes as I was kept very well informed throughout the ordeal and everyone I met took the time to answer extra questions of mine, even though I've now been through this kind of surgery 3 times total. Dr. Cueto's exceptional attention to detail, my comfort and keeping me informed about the procedure both pre and post op were outstanding and this conveys a welcomed relief to someone like me thats always a little nervous about surgery. She is a very kind person that took some extra time to converse with me about my situation and such a joy in this day and age to have a doctor that DOES actually care about your personal well being. I wish this surgical practice was a national treasure (as it should already be) simply from the exceptional care and concern I've received twice now, but at the very least this is a highly polished/smooth as floating water and well presented practice that I can recommend to anyone desiring the best surgical doctors, staff, and personal care. Together these medical professionals have returned some of my missing life back to me and have given me an ongoing sense of hope so long as I do my part. MANY thanks to all of you once again.!!"

"From the start, everything was handled above expectations. This is a great team - very professional and polite. Each of the team followed through and was on top of all aspects related to my surgery and needs. Dr. Cristina V. Cueto MD was outstanding in every regard and leads a great team of professionals."

"Dr. Cueto is an amazing physician. She saved my moms life and I’m forever grateful to her. She is incredibly knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure my mother was completely healed. My moms surgery was difficult due to certain circumstances and Dr. Cueto overcame them with ease. I would recommend her to any of my family and friends if they were in need. I wish all physicians would love and take care of their patients the way that she did my mother."
