Patient Testimonials

Being 53 and living an active lifestyle include hockey, hunting and a physically demanding job, I started to feel pain and loss of mobility in my left hip. A visit to a surgeon was in order. Upon leaving the consultation with a different doctor I felt like I was keeping him from something more important than me. That was not the case with Dr. Arntson. Upon leaving I knew he was going to be my surgeon. A total hip replacement was performed with the anterior approach. Amazing!! Within 8 weeks I was back to work doing my job delivering beer and ready for the fall hunting season not babying my new hip at all. I highly recommend Dr. Arntson and his staff so much that when my right side is to be replaced he will be performing the surgery.

Dr. Arntson was honest, informative and an excellent surgeon. He was clear in the objectives my partial knee replacement would achieve. He made no outlandish promises of a “fountain of youth.” I am relatively young at 53 years old and wanted a procedure that was viable to help me enjoy my work/recreational life but also allow flexibility if 15-20 years down the road if I needed more surgery.

The Dr. Arntson and staff are excellent with providing information you truly need and respecting the educational background you also possess (I worked in physical therapy 18 years and am currently Hospice RN). I am post-surgery day 3 and have not used any pain medications and have minimal swelling. Today was also my first day evaluated by TCO Physical Therapist Eric who is also eager to listen to my goals and questions following surgery. So far 6 stars out of 5!

I have been employed in Healthcare for 27 years and never experienced this level of world-class expertise combined with people who truly care! Dr. Arntson and TCO have assembled a unique team of people dedicated to improving my work/life balance.

Sincerely,
Patrick G., Hospice RN

Dr. Owen O’Neill performed a rotator cuff surgery on my right shoulder. Fabulous! I was back to my work the next day and playing bass that weekend! Almost back to normal after 3 and a half months. Thank you so much Dr. O’Neill, your staff, and all the personnel in both of your Twin Cities Orthopedics and the Two Twelve Medical Center. I so appreciate it. I highly recommend Dr. O’Neill and the rest of the staff at Twin Cities Orthopedics!

Sending our thanks to the entire staff of Twin Cities Orthopedics for sponsoring the high school physicals program. My son had his physical at the Blaine office. The event was well organized and represented Twin Cities Orthopedics in a fine manner.  The staff that my son and I interacted with were wonderful. We as a family wanted to share with you our appreciation for your sponsorship of this program.  You have a great team! Our sincerest thanks!

I had my first hip replacement in August of 2017 and my second one done in June of 2018. Dr. Brian O’Neill is simply the best of the best. I had so much pain leading up to both surgeries and after both surgeries, I needed no pain meds other than Advil and Tylenol. Dr. O’Neill literally gives you your life back.

Dr. Vorlicky and his staff are amazing. It’s been eight weeks and my new knee feels great. I am ready to schedule the other knee and I know I will receive outstanding care.

No matter if see him for care of my arm fracture or Bakers cyst, he is kind, reassuring and very knowledgeable. I recommend Dr. Butterfield and TCO to anyone who needs orthopedic care.

I had total knee replacement done on both knees. First one on February 1 and the second on April 5 of this year. I am totally satisfied and would recommend Dr. Sanders. He and his staff were very kind and explained the procedure well. I did my physical therapy at the TCO in Waconia which got me up and around quickly. I am able to walk again with no pain and am totally enjoying life again. Thank you so much Dr. Sanders!

Dr. David Anderson is simply the “BEST “. With his expertise in surgery and his guidance throughout the whole procedure, I have been given a new lease on life. I limped and struggled for many years with extreme pain located in my right knee. Dr. Anderson performed such accuracy that I have the strength and confidence to do enjoy life – PAIN FREE. Thank you Dr. Anderson for having the super ability to not only change my life but also you are a GREAT communicator.  THANKS AGAIN!

I had both of my hips replaced by Dr. Chris Meyer at Ridgeview Medical Center. I had an excellent experience and felt that I was well cared for throughout the process from Dr. Meyer’s physician’s assistant, to Dr. Meyer and his surgical team, and finally to the Ridgeview team post-surgery. I am an extremely satisfied customer!
