BIO

Devastating injury can be a real motivator. For Allie Janas, seeing patients with serious orthopaedic injuries heal and transition home was the inspiration for her career path. More than a decade ago, when she began her nursing career as a trauma ICU nurse, she witnessed firsthand how an efficient and evidence-based orthopaedic team could change the course of a patient’s future.

Throughout her well-rounded career, Allie has seen and treated a variety of acute and chronic injuries. She has diverse experience in all orthopaedic subspecialties – including conditions and injuries of the shoulder, elbow, hand, hip, knee, foot and ankle – and is passionate about constantly developing her skills to improve patient outcomes.

Allie’s approach to patient care is rooted in compassion. Sensitive to the emotional, financial and physical toll an injury may have on a patient, she is dedicated to providing high quality, patient-centered care. At Great Basin Orthopaedics, this includes keeping her patients informed so they can be at the forefront of decision-making, as well as collaborating with the surgical team to develop high quality health care plans with an emphasis on the patient experience.

Allie was born and raised in Carson City, Nevada, where she developed an appreciation for all the activities our beautiful area has to offer. When Allie and her husband aren’t exploring the outdoors, they can be found spending time with family and friends, or proudly supporting their daughter – a multi-sport enthusiast who participates in hockey, gymnastics, soccer, dance and basketball – from the stands.

It's been a few years since I went here with a broken arm and I can't thank them enough for the excellent care I got!!! I was able to avoid surgery and avoid my arm getting to stiff since he didn't put me in a full cast. The staff was super friendly throughout the whole building from the receptionist, the nurses, the x-ray techs and the dr. Literally everyone had a smile and that's rarer these days
Carissa Byram

Always professional, courteous and compelling for me, the patient, to do exercises that enhance performance. I am challenged to exercise Amy's list of items so I can get better through each appointment. VG!

I will follow Amy wherever she goes. I relate to her because of her approach, and I trust her judgment and treatment plan(s) without hesitation.

I was never a patient, but as an intern I enjoyed my time working here. The Doctors who run the practice are top notch. Work environment is structured organized and cheerful. I was offered a position but they couldn't get it approved but they gave me the help I needed to get my degree!
Austin Noriega
Totally AWESOME STAFF!! You will be glad you used them—you owe it to yourself to check them out, rather than only the HUGE “other” Ortho guys. I tried them both and I am BLESSED that I ended up with GBO. They are passionate about improving your life and helping you fully recover! Six stars out of five, 11 stars out of ten!!
David Michael Bel
I was so impressed with the friendly and caring people. I would say it was one of the best appointments for anything I have ever had! Thank you!
Sandy Jennings
If you live in the Reno area, you just can't do better than Great Basin Orthopaedic. I'm someone with knee problems going way back decades, as well as other orthopedic issues, so I think I know what I'm talking about. Don't settle, get the best, go to Great Basin, or, as they call it GBO. I promise you will be glad you did.
Wanda H.
I love how smoothly everything runs here. My doctor is amazing the nurse is great too. From checking in, to follow ups to my surgery (ACL) everything went so smoothly and even my post op care. I wish all my doctors outside ortho would go so smoothly! Great job guys!
Sharon B.
It was a great visit. I felt heard and cared for, and left feeling very satisfied. I immediately texted a friend to recommend GBO.

Doctor Timothy Dooley is the 'ideal' doctor, someone who validates my pain, listens to my problem and treats me with respect and courtesy and he laughed at my silly jokes. Smile and personality that put me at ease! Thank you for being you.

Amazing office, professional, staff is happy, website is user friendly and the medical expertise is A++! Keep up the great hard work you all do in helping others.
Polly A.
The x-ray tech Kathy was a pleasure. I was crying from the pain and she even took the time out to hug me.

Great Basin Orthopedics repaired my elbow accident and recently performed a total hip replacement. The elbow outcome was excellent using GBO's Physical Therapy services and I am hopeful the hip will be better than new in a short while. Stephen Capel was my therapist for the elbow and is now for my hip. I have full confidence with him.
James Tiner

Dr. Kieckbusch showed me the x-rays and explained the problem and said when I was ready he would correct the problem. Very good personality and explained it so I understood it. Will definitely go back when I'm ready.

This place has truly been a godsend since my ACL surgery. Amy knows how and when to increase my activity levels. So lucky to have her helping with my recovery.

If you have hand issues ~ Dr. Dooley is who you want as your physician. Knowledgeable, honest and validated my concerns. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Staff is superb and helpful.
