I had a right shoulder joint replacement. Dr. Hunt did a phenomenal job! I had the nerve block which lasted three days and I had no pain. Icing helped with swelling as well. I was at the TCO EXCEL recovery suite overnight. Everyone there was very kind and took good care of me. They are where attentive to my needs. I highly recommend TCO!

I have been seeing Taylor for shoulder pain, and she is excellent! She is very knowledgeable, understanding and a joy to work with. Aric at the front desk is great! He is very friendly. He knows me by sight and has me checked in before I even get to the desk! I would highly recommend TCO Hudson!

Dr. Fritz and his Care Team did a fantastic job with our 6-year-old daughter! She broke her humerus just above the elbow. Dr. Fritz and his Team were helpful, understanding, knowledgeable, and in tune with what our daughter needed! Our favorite part of the process: our daughter had a loose tooth that the Team thought should come out prior to surgery so she wouldn’t swallow it during surgery. The tooth fairy came to visit during surgery! We highly recommend Dr. Fritz and his Team at TCO!

Eric Barth, the imaging team, and the check-in staff are all top notch. Eric spent time checking all possibilities and took the time to explain what the images showed and could not show. He helped suggest the next level of testing. I left with a less painful shoulder, which is getting better every minute, and a clear understanding of next steps. Thank you TCO team!

I had shoulder surgery performed by Dr. Ockuly after an injury, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the care I received. From the initial consultation to post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Ockuly was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly reassuring. He explained everything clearly, made me feel confident in the process. He treated me with care and respect.

Thanks to his skill and attention to detail, my surgery was a success. I am now well on my way to a full recovery with plans to return to college hockey next season. I highly recommend Dr. Ockuly to anyone in need of orthopedic care. His expertise and dedication made a tough situation much easier to handle.

I saw Wanda Lickteig after spending two years with a tennis elbow problem. Wanda is wonderful! She is a great listener and communicator. Overall, she is a great therapist. I whole-heartedly recommend her to anyone!

Highly recommend Dr. Leafblad and the TCO staff. I had my shoulder replaced in February 2025 and now I am done with physical therapy. They are great with all they do. I couldn’t be more satisfied.

Dr. Ockuly performed a total reverse shoulder replacement for me in May. Prior to my surgery, I was not able to work over head or shoot my shot gun. I love to go bow hunting and was not able to shoot my vertical bow. He told me I would be shooting my bow by Fall. It was true and I couldn’t be happier. The TCO team was excellent.

I was suffering from extreme shoulder pain in both shoulders for about 7 years which got progressively worse over time. It was caused purely by arthritis with no history of damage from an accident or injury. I went to my local TCO clinic in Vadnais Heights for an opinion by a trained physician and was introduced to Dr. Nels Leafblad.

During the appointment, I was impressed by his medical background and that he treated damaged shoulders. A thorough evaluation determined my need for a total replacement of both shoulders. Feeling more at ease with Dr. Leafblad, we both agreed to replace one shoulder in 2024 and the other in 2025 if the first was successful. A great decision! Dr. Leafblad’s confidence and positive manner led to a very positive outcome.

Now, here I am in May 2025 with two newly replaced shoulders, a good attitude, and most importantly, no pain. I am completely back to performing house and year work while being also to play golf again. I feel like I was led to TCO and Dr. Leafblad. Now I have a new lease on life at age 78.

I highly recommend Twin Cities Orthopedics for joint replacement surgery. Dr. Leafblad and his staff did an excellent job with my total reverse shoulder replacement in March 2025. The pain from bone spurs is now completely gone in my shoulder. With physical therapy, I am making good progress toward increasing mobility. I am looking forward to having my other shoulder replaced within the next year.
