Patient Testimonials

I want to express my utmost gratitude to you, your team, and the whole TCO team. We ended up in your care under very unfortunate circumstances with a little girl who was very traumatized by her injury. The TCO team was so gracious, patient and caring. I could not thank you guys enough. From the person who answered my call at the call center and got us an appointment with Dr. Moeller, while keeping me on the phone for 30 minutes to figure out how to make it happen on the same day. Wow what persistence and care to maneuver all the pieces to make it happen. To the care team in the office who was so respectful of my daughter and her needs, not once minimizing her feelings, or being annoyed at her crying. To you, who stayed with us while we called insurance to figure out if your clinic was in network for our insurance. And of course, Dr. Moeller who took such great care of our little girl while having to change surgery locations.

Honestly from the bottom of my heart thank you so very much. Thank you for the work you are doing. Your efforts and care does not go unnoticed by our family.

Please pass along this message to your higher ups. I want your superiors to know what an outstanding job you are all doing.

I want to thank Dr. Arthur once again for wonderful care. He saw me in August for a torn meniscus and recommended rest, icing, and elevation before my “bucket list” trip to Egypt. His recommendations worked! My husband and I had a fabulous trip to Egypt and Petra, then went on to meet our daughter and her children in Dubai, staying at Atlantis. No exaggeration, I climbed thousands of steps in Egypt, Petra and at the Dubai water park with my granddaughters, and I had no pain. Thanks for keeping these “old” bones moving!

I wanted to reach out to say thank you to Dr. Johnson and give him an update on my left knee. His last-ditch insistence and guidance to increase my Allopurinol dosage before proceeding with an unnecessary scope seems to have addressed a problem that was having a huge negative impact on my life. Dr. Johnson is a true professional and someone I will absolutely go back to with any future issues if they occur. He was always very transparent, honest, positive, patient, and understanding with the care he provided. Thanks again for the great care provided by Dr. Johnson and the TCO staff.

I  lived with knee pain for at least 74 years. The past 5 years have been really bad. I finally decided to do something about it. I can’t thank the staff at TCO and Dr. Arntson enough for changing my life. I had a total knee replacement 6 weeks ago and what a difference it has made! I can now go up and down flights of stairs normally. Long walks and talks with my husband are a daily treat, since before I really couldn’t walk due to the pain. I can walk the aisles at the grocery store. Cooking recipes that require over 5 minutes to cook are a pleasure since I can stand to make them.

However, most importantly, I can be the grandma my grandchildren deserve and love. I only missed 3 weeks of babysitting due to surgery. Those first hugs when I returned were worth it. This surgery was life changing for me. I only wish I would have done it sooner.

Dr. Engasser did an extraordinary job on my ankle. I can now walk with no pain, enjoy my golf, and live my life to my fullest. I highly recommend him.

The medical community is very blessed to have Dr. Knowlan & Peter Larson, PA-C  serving this area with their expertise and professional care. Dr. Knowlan has done all of my orthopedic care. To attest to his knowledge and care, I’m able to play golf again! My age is 90 years old. I am very grateful.

I am not sure words are enough to thank Dr. Christie Heikes and team for their care for daughter over the last several years. As a competitive gymnast, it feels like injuries come with the territory. It’s never easy and always emotional. Multiple sprains and two surgeries later, they are our trusted team for ensuring Maliyah continues to reach her goals despite the injuries and setbacks. They truly care about her and her success. The care we receive and the concern for not only Maliyah’s physical well-being, but also her emotional well-being, is second to none. There is no other team we trust to care for our daughter.

Dr. Arntson did a left hip replacement for me. It went perfectly. There was a  little pressure but no pain. Recovery went well and I am back to playing racquetball at age 65. The whole experience at TCO was great. Thanks to you all!

I was dealing with a hip injury for two years and it got to the point where it became debilitating. I came across Dr. Ridley at TCO and I’m sure glad I did. He found a labral tear and Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and determined that surgery was an option because I tried everything else (hip injections and therapy). He did the surgery and repaired my labrum and shaved down some bone. Recovery went better than I could’ve ever imagined! Dr. Ridley was the best surgeon I could’ve had. His bedside manner was great, he was so passionate in what he does, and explained everything about pre-surgery with such detail. He did such an incredible job! I feel like I have a brand new hip and I was back on my feet after a month (with physical therapy). THANK YOU DR. RIDLEY FOR GIVING ME MY LIFE BACK!!!!

My first visit with Dr. Meyer yesterday was incredible! He has definitely restored my faith in the medical profession with his incredible bedside manner and his knowledge of Dupuytren’s Contracture. His confidence in his diagnosis surpasses all others and to me, that says it all. Kudos to Doctor Meyer! We need more handsome Dr. Meyers in this world who cares about his patients and medical profession.
