Patient Testimonials

Visited TCO in late November 2019 and saw Dr. Hunt for a sore shoulder. I thought it was related to an old rotor cuff repair but instead was a wore out joint. I had the shoulder replacement done 12/11/19 and was home in one day. Other than the surgical block I needed no other pain meds. Dr. Hunt and the EXCEL Program were great.

I have been a patient of Dr. Diekmann for almost 20 years. Every time I see him, even if it’s been two or three years since my previous visit, he always acts like I’m his only patient. He always makes me feel comfortable, listens to my issues, and involves me in my care plan.

I am very happy with my experience with Dr. Owen O’Neill and his staff. On March 5th, 2020 I had a hip replacement surgery. Prior to the surgery I was in a lot of pain when I walked. I enjoy taking walks and being active. The surgery has changed my life. I am walking pain free. I had put off doing the surgery because I didn’t want to be out of work and have a long recovery. I was amazed how fast I was up and walking again. I am 57 and was born with hip deformation. I am so grateful for Dr. O’Neill for giving me my life back. My only regret is that I didn’t do this years ago.

I had fusion surgery, C7-T1, on February 27th. I was in a lot of pain over the last two years in my upper back and traveling down my right arm.

My treatment plan over the last two years was chiropractic care, therapy, and ibuprofen. My pain got so bad in early February this year that I was unable to work, sleep, or enjoy time with family.

I told Dr. Deal that I was ready for surgery. Dr. Deal and team were amazing to help get me scheduled sooner than later. My pain level leading up to and the morning of surgery was a 10+ in my back, arm, and fingers.

I awoke from surgery and had no pain in my fingers, arm, and back. Yesterday, was my 3 month follow-up appointment and when asked what my pain level is (0-10), I was thrilled to report “0” in all areas.

I wish I would have had the surgery earlier, yet am very grateful to Dr. Deal for walking me through the process and electing to have surgery on my terms.

I will recommend Dr. Deal and team at TCO to anyone. FANTASTIC experience!

I’m able to walk and cycle without pain as well as sleep comfortably. It’s really amazing how immediate the results are felt and how fast the healing occurs. I would definitely do it again if needed.

I am so thankful to be able to enjoy family walks and recreation with my family and friends again! Dr. DuBois is an amazing doctor who I would highly recommend to others!

I am amazed at the results of my total hip replacement by Dr. Christopher Meyer! I had difficulty getting into the car, going up or down stairs, bending, getting dressed, etc. I even noticed I was not standing straight. All of the pain is now gone, I can move freely, and I’m standing tall! So happy I could get this surgery twice (both sides)!!

Dr. Hess operated on my shoulder to remove calcific tendonitis and did a fantastic job! I couldn’t be happier with my results. Physical therapy went amazingly well and I have full range of motion back and no longer have pain or trouble sleeping because of my shoulder. He is a hero!!

I am so pleased and grateful to Dr. Coetzee and his team. As an extremely active person with a very serious injury, I knew that finding the right surgeon would be important to return me to the activities that I love and are important to me. I’m thrilled to be back to my sports, including long distance running, which I never thought I’d be able to do again. I felt Dr. Coetzee listened to my recovery goals and took me seriously as a patient, rather than just seeing a busted ankle. Thank you!

I was in so much pain prior to the surgery I wasn’t able to do much of anything. I no longer have that pain and am able to do everything I’m allowed at this point. It’s wonderful to be without pain.
