Patient Testimonials

I had my left shoulder replaced two years ago by Dr. Hunt. The entire team at Twin Cities Orthopedics is so good at what they do. I am having my right shoulder done soon. If the right side goes as well as the left, I will be very pleased! Dr. Hunt is awesome in every way. Thank you all!

Dr. Koch is at the top of her game! She knows what she’s doing and she does it with style and grace. She is very matter of fact and expects great outcomes. I have had nothing but great outcomes with her and her entire staff. I am lucky to have her as a care provider. Thank you to Dr. Koch!

Dr. Johnson, Jen, and all the staff at Twin Cities Orthopedics made my knee replacement go very smoothly. I am very happy with the results. I would highly recommend Dr. Johnson to anyone.

Dr. Banks helped my husband on his path to recovery. He kept encouraging him to hang in there. It gave my husband confidence that he would be able to return to a better life. We really appreciated him!

Dr. LaPrade and his team have been fantastic in helping me navigate all the issues with my knee injury! I couldn’t recommend them and Twin Cities Orthopedics more. I plan on working with them whenever I have an injury like this as they are true professionals in every aspect. Thank you to Dr. LaPrade, his team, and the staff at TCO!

Dr. Traynor provided phenomenal care and gave me the confidence to go back to regular life following such a severe injury. From intake through my three-month check-in, he provided great care and insight into recovering from my injury. He showed nothing but professionalism and expertise.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Nessler and the entire TCO team. I had my left knee replaced and have been so happy with both the care I received and how well my recovery has gone. Dr. Nessler made me feel comfortable and confident going into surgery, and I truly felt like I was in very good hands. In fact, I had such a positive experience that I’m already scheduled to have him replace my right knee in January 2027!

I also chose the EXCEL Recovery Program and spent the first night after surgery at the Omni Hotel. It was wonderful! Having that extra care and support in such a comfortable setting made the first night after surgery so much easier. I am very thankful for Dr. Nessler and everyone who helped me through the process. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone considering a knee replacement.

My right knee was turning inward after an injury from a fall many years ago. My leg looked like a side way V and my knee felt unstable. It felt like it would give out at any time, especially walking downstairs. Dr. Kelly was referred to me by a friend and previous patient. He gave me a total knee replacement one year ago. Now, my leg is straight, and my knee is very strong and stable. I am very grateful for Dr. Kelly’s knowledge, expertise, great bedside manner, and friendly personality. I have recommended him to everyone who asks about my recovery. If you are considering a knee replacement, go to Dr. Edward Kelly at Twin Cities Orthopedics. He is the best!

I have to share my experience at TCO Hudson! I never thought that I would be sad that my post-op therapy was coming to an end. From the two smiling faces of Jennifer and Aric at the front desk to my physical therapist, Scott Peterson, I am so grateful! The whole staff and culture of the facility was uplifting. Scott was patient and supportive. He provided me with knowledge and inspiration to keep working towards my goals. I also want to thank Dr. Robert Knowlan and Peter Larson for their support through all my concerns.

It has been three months after my total knee replacement. I could not be more pleased with my results thanks to my TCO surgeon, Dr. Owen O’Neill, and his caring staff. Dr. O’Neill had a clear care plan that helped reduce my anxiety about what to expect and how to prepare. I highly recommend him to anyone considering a total knee replacement. I have terrific flexion, weight bearing, and stability that I haven’t had in my knee for years. Farewell to my old knee brace! A big thank you to Dr. O’Neill and his team!
