Patient Testimonials

Being only 53, I assumed I should wait out the pain in my knee, until I ‘was older’. Dr. Chris Meyer asked me an important question, ‘immobile now, or worry about being immobile at 83?’. I signed up for the surgery as soon as we could work out the details! The care has been top notch, the recommendations were spot on and follow up was fantastic!! Now at 5 months out, instead of rating my pain with every step, I have an occasional sense of fullness in my knee. It’s still healing for a year, but best move ever! Thank you all, TCO!

Dr. Michael Nemanich and his team (Josh, Sarah, Jenna) far exceeded my expectations. Through three years of conservative treatment for an arthritic knee and subsequent total knee replacement, I was always treated with respect and caring, offered options, and included in my treatment plan.

My surgery, hospitalization, and therapy were seamless and successful. I am grateful to be pain-free and active thanks to my surgeon’s expertise and experience.

If you are considering a knee replacement and are seeking a skilled and compassionate surgeon, Dr. Michael Nemanich is the perfect choice.

After meeting with Dr. Conner to discuss knee replacement I felt very comfortable. Dr. Conner took the time to explain the procedure and what to expect after surgery. Dr. Conner’s patient coordinator Shawn is the best. I had the surgery November 2, 2018 and nine weeks later I’m in Hawaii walking 6-8 miles a day even hiking across lava flows pain free. Thank you Dr. Conner for helping me do the things I enjoy.

My superior capsular reconstruction by Dr. Norberg was great! The surgery was very successful and I am very happy with the results.

Couldn’t ask for a better team. I would recommend Dr. Peter Sanders and his PA, Matthew Bennett, to anyone.

Thank you Dr. Wetter and your assistants. They did a great job, no long waits, everyone was very nice and professional. I highly recommend. Carmen B.

I recently had a total knee replacement through Twin Cities Orthopedic and the EXCEL Surgery & Recovery program. My surgeon was Dr. Zachary Arntson, I could not be any happier with the results. I was so scared to do this surgery but it had to be done. I could not walk without being in a lot of pain. Dr. Arntson was compassionate, very informative and really listened to my concerns. After 5 weeks I am going back to work, It feels so good to be able to walk without pain. If you are thinking about doing a surgery soon I highly recommend meeting with Dr. Arntson you will not be disappointed.

I am able to feel less stress because the new knee feels good. I enjoy golfing and I am able to play as often as I want/can. A better quality of life for sure. Thank you TCO and Dr. Meyer.

My daughter Emily sustained an injury during basketball. We called TCO to get an appointment, and were able to be seen almost immediately. We first met with Fred, who genuinely showed compassion to Emily, and made her feel comfortable. He took the time to discuss the process which was about to take place to evaluate, and eventually treat the injury. We then met with Dr. Cole. He talked to Emily in a way which made her understand what was taking place, and kept her at ease. It was determined that Emily did have a fracture, and the TCO team went into action creating a plan. The care coordination was extraordinary. We met on regular intervals with Dr. Cole and his care team. Fred often followed up, in between visits, to understand our progress. I called Fred with questions, and received timely responses. The overall experience was fantastic. I know where will be will coming, should an event like this take place in the future.

I had a wonderful experience with TCO, especially Dr. Meyer and his team. I have shared my shoulder surgery experience and referred other people looking for an Orthopedic Surgeon.
