Patient Testimonials

I had been having knee issues for years, starting with a meniscal tear and resulting in arthroscopic surgery twice. I was told that I would eventually need a knee replacement and when that time came Dr. Lewis came highly recommended. What a beautiful job he did with my knee. I’m 8 weeks post-op and delighted with the outcome. Thanks to Dr. Lewis and his PA, Libby.

Dr. Mair has been an exceptional care provider. From diagnosis to treatment and surgery, he exceeded every expectation. He is always responsive, supportive, and encouraging. I am so grateful to Dr. Mair and his team for getting me back to an active, pain-free state. I would recommend him to anyone, without a doubt. Thank you!!

I can’t recommend Dr. Hunt enough. He’s a doctor that will not only listen to you, but will work WITH you to come up with the best treatment plan. Dr. Hunt has worked on both of my knee replacements and one of my shoulders. The range of motion that I got back exceeded what I thought! Dr. Hunt and his entire team are great. They’re dedicated to ensuring that your treatment and recovery go well. In fact, I recently moved out of state and discovered I needed to have a patella ligament reconstruction done to my knee and there was only one person I wanted to do it! Dr. Hunt and his team worked with me remotely to diagnose and get the surgery set up. I returned to Minnesota for the surgery and am now well on my way to recovery. Thank you Dr. Hunt, Nick, Sara and all the TCO staff!

Dr. Harris gave me my life back. I cannot thank him enough for that! I hope he knows what a gift he is to the world. I am so grateful to have found him.

The past three years with a progressive arthritic hip, had been frustrating and painful, putting a real damper on my abilities and quality of life. I stubbornly hoped therapies, good diet and bone supplements might provide enough relief and they didn’t. I finally sought out Dr. Owen O’Neill to move forward with surgery. Within weeks following surgery, I became ecstatic at how miraculous the outcome was. I quickly was able to work, play and do all that I wanted, and completely pain free! Dr. O’Neill, his P.A. Isabel, and team hold a stellar reputation. Their expertise and especially warm and compassionate report, along with that of the diverse staff and nurses at Fairview, all helped contribute to my incredible experience and outcome.

Dr. Engasser and his team at TCO put my life back on track. Thank you for your professionalism! l am pain free after 35 years of constant, 24 hours of pain every day.

Dr. O’Neill and the whole team at TCO are amazing. They are attentive, caring and make you feel like you are the only patient. I was walking with assistance shortly after surgery and walking unassisted 3 days later. My recovery was swift and I was back to normal life 3 weeks later. Every time I needed to speak with Dr. O’Neill or the TCO staff, they were available 24/7. I recommend Dr. O’Neill to anyone that needs hip surgery. He is now taking care of my knee and I have full confidence in him.

Due to some neck issues, I had nerve pain going down all the way down my left arm. Dr. Duncan did an amazing job explaining why my nerve issues were happening. He explained my options very thoroughly, with the last option being surgery. He ended up performing the surgery and it was a tremendous success. My nerve issues were gone, the healing time for my neck went faster than expected, and I haven’t had this much neck radius movement in years. One of my other big concerns was the possible long-term scar on the front of my neck. Thankfully there is no scar at all! I can’t even tell where it was. Overall, I couldn’t have had a better outcome. I was given excellent medical advice and treatment by Dr. Duncan’s entire team.

Lindsey Brown, ATC evaluated our 15 year old son who was concussed while wrestling at a high school tournament. She spent a great deal of time with us and her genuine concern for his well-being was not just apparent during his visit, but included several calls to follow-up regarding his progress. Lindsey’s knowledge, thoroughness, warmth, along with consultations with Dr. Ryan and the High School ATC, helped ease our concerns tremendously. We highly recommend Lindsey and Dr. Ryan and appreciate them greatly!

I am a retired 66 year old who likes to be active and I’ve had knee pain for years. The pain got to the point where I knew I needed a treatment plan. After some research, I chose Dr. O’Neill and am very happy with my choice. After trying a cortisone shot, which unfortunately did not help, I ended up having back to back total knee replacements, with the first knee surgery in July 2021 and the second knee surgery in December 2021. Dr. O’Neill and his staff explained the whole process, from the surgery itself to recovery expectations, and physical therapy. Both surgeries went GREAT!!

Recovery was just as Dr. O’Neill said it would be and much easier than I personally expected. After my July surgery, I was able to go fishing at Lake of the Woods with no issues after 6 weeks. I also went on a fishing trip in Canada with friends at 8 weeks post-op. I just had my 8 week follow-up for my second knee and all is well. I am looking forward to a busy summer enjoying the outdoors.

I strongly recommended Dr. O’Neill, his staff and the TCO Physical Therapy Program to anybody with knee pain. Thank you Dr. O’Neill. What you do is really a miracle!!
