Dr. Seybold is an excellent surgeon who truly listens to the needs of the patient. He is compassionate, positive, and has a sense of humor. Dr. Seybold and his PA, Holly Chappel, are “all in”. Thank you for allowing me to get the care I have received.

My story starts about eight years ago when I started having pain when walking. Three and a half years ago, I realized I needed to actively treat my pain which was consistently getting worse. Mobility had all but gone and I thought I needed some adjustments so saw a chiropractor. Quickly I realized that was not helping. I saw three different doctors, had X-rays taken, received several steroid injections, and took multiple MRIs. I was going to physical therapy for two years, including massage therapy. Finally, I went to a hip surgeon that refused to perform surgery because I was “too young” at the age of 52. I was in so much pain, so I got a second opinion the next week.

Dr. Nessler took new X-rays and showed me why I was in so much pain. I was amazed at how bad my hip joints were, both were bone on bone. I held my breath waiting for him to tell me I was too young to have the surgery, but he didn’t. Instead, he said he could do the surgery and that it was really my only option to alleviate the pain. I broke down and cried because it was the first time I felt heard, and I finally found someone to help me.

Getting surgery done scared me but not having sit done scared me even more. I had my right hip replacement done in November of 2024 and the left hip done in February of 2025. Having hip replacement surgery was the best decision I ever made. During my first walk around the hospital after surgery, I found that my joint pain was completely gone! I am now 3 months post-op and doing very well. My mobility is back, and it is getting better every day.

Dr. Nessler gave me my life back. He and his team (Anne Meyer and Lisa Marcellus) were professional, patient, knowledgeable, and kind. I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon or care team. I would send anyone in need to Dr. Nessler without hesitation. Thank you, Dr. Nessler, for everything.

My daughter had surgery with Dr. Dwivedi to repair her right thumb fracture after she was involved in a car accident. During the many visits we had with him, my husband and I both think that Dr. Dwivedi’s bedside manner was beyond amazing. We absolutely love him! He is beyond the best of the best. He takes his time with patients and is wonderful! We would definitely recommend him.

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Dr. Meisterling and his entire team for the wonderful care that I received. I needed a surgical repair and follow-up care from an unfortunate trip and fall injury resulting in a torn rotator cuff. Dr. Meisterling listened to me and answered my questions in a very direct and professional manner. He handled my arm very gently during my post-op follow-up visit, which I appreciated. Everyone I encountered was so kind, thoughtful, and helpful as I moved through the process of surgery and the physical therapy that followed. I would highly recommend TCO and Dr. Meisterling’s care team. They are a 10+ out of 10!

I had made an appointment in December 2024 for surgery with a general Orthopedic surgeon for my right thumb joint due to arthritis. He had quickly described the surgery to me, and I asked him if he thought I could have both thumbs done by the end of the year. He said that he thought it should be fine. I had made an appointment with Dr. Dwivedi to talk about surgery for my left thumb joint, since the original surgeon didn’t have any openings.

My first impression of Dr. Dwivedi was that he was warm, caring, and gentle. He took his time explaining the surgery, the Ligament Reconstruction, and the Tendon Interposition (LRTI) in a detailed way that I fully understood what to expect. He highly recommended that I did not get both thumbs done so close together. With his thorough explanation, I understood and agreed. I chose to reschedule my original surgery for my right thumb with Dr. Dwivedi and I couldn’t have been happier. I was nervous the day of the surgery, but he was upbeat, calm, and reassuring. I trusted him completely. The night of the surgery, he even called me to see how I was doing.

I am a person who asks a lot of questions until I fully understand things and he was very patient. He seemed happy and excited to share his knowledge with me. My husband and I could tell that he is passionate with his job and takes pride in his work. Every appointment, I was met with his gentle handshake, warm smile, and friendly demeanor. My sister works at the surgery center where the surgery was performed, and she has heard so many great things about him. My hand therapist also said she has heard the same about Dr. Dwivedi. I am so thankful that I chose to have the surgery performed by Dr. Dwivedi! I would highly recommend him and will have him do my left hand sometime this year.

Dr. Edward Kelly performed Reverse Total Shoulder Replacement on both of my shoulders. My arthritis and torn rotator cuff attachments limited my ability to do many things before. I now have increased range of motion in both shoulders – motion I have not had in over twenty years. Until I experienced “no pain” in my shoulders after surgery, I didn’t realize how much pain I was in every day.

The whole process, from my first visit through recovery, Dr. Kelly and his staff were there caring for me in a friendly and professional manner. The preparation for surgery, the facility, and everyone involved in my surgeries, were beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Dr. Kelly and his staff! Don’t wait, get it done sooner than later! Having use of my arms makes me feel that I am back in control and can now look forward to more years doing what I want to do. Thank you, Dr. Kelly, and Staff!

I had a hip replacement with Dr. Carlson in January. Everything went excellent and I had minimal pain after the surgery. I had good communication with the doctor through the entire process.

As a nurse, I have seen many doctors. Dr. Lewis is the best! He is a wonderful guy, has great bedside manner, and is a master at what he does. My knee replacement was great, with no problems at all. He has taken care of my whole family over the years. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Lewis if you are looking for perfection.

My first experience with Dr. Ockuly was five years ago when I needed a hip replacement. He took time to explain the x-rays and promised me he would do his best to fix my hip. It was a very successful surgery. Four weeks later, I had finished PT and could walk without any assistance. Next came a completely torn shoulder that could not be fixed except for a total reverse shoulder replacement. At first, Dr. Ockuly wanted me to try PT. Eighteen weeks later, Dr. Ockuly told me I was doing better than what surgery would do. Now I’m facing replacement of both knees but not before having a few years of alternative therapies.

I highly recommend Dr. Ockuly to anyone needing surgery. He is very knowledgeable and experienced. He takes time to explain the situation and what plans are available for treatment. His entire team is caring, competent, and really treats you like family. His PA, Annie Merrill, is an invaluable member of his team before, during, and after surgery.

I have been to Twin Cities Orthopedics a couple of times for different pain issues. They have always been very professional, kind, and gave me different options for dealing with my ailments. They spent the time to explain my options and really listened to me. I would never go anywhere else. I totally trust Dr. Ockuly and his PA. Thank you so much!
