Patient Testimonials

Great job by Twin Cities Orthopedics staff and Dr. O’Keefe! I tore my meniscus and they had me back up and moving right away. Thank you for the great experience and for treating me like I was your #1 priority!

Dr. O’Keefe & Dalton Neil, PA-C were very helpful and informative as to what I was experiencing. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is having knee issues. Blaine Orthopedic Surgery Center nurses were very nice and made my surgery visit very tolerable. Thank you to all!

Dr. O’Keefe and TCO staff do excellent work. I am extremely satisfied and wish I had done this sooner.

This was my first visit to TCO and my first visit with Dr. TJ Ridley. From the minute I entered the building, I had a good feeling and felt comfortable. Each of the staff members I encountered before meeting with Dr. Ridley were kind and welcoming. My visit with Dr. Ridley was exceptional. He was very interested in hearing my story of the pain in my foot. He was thorough in his questioning. When my results came in, he explained so I could understand what he saw in my tests. Dr. Ridley was clear in his prognosis and he immediately had a plan for me to implement. At this time I have no upcoming appointment as long as I follow his recommendations. I highly recommend Dr. TJ Ridley to anyone looking for an orthopedic physician who is highly qualified and one who truly cares about his patients.

I had a great experience. Dr. O’Keefe made my first surgery go great! Everyone at TCO is extremely helpful and was awesome. Thank you!

Dr. Arntson replaced my left hip with the anterior procedure. I was able to walk pain free immediately with very few restrictions. There has been very little pain, especially at the incision site. Now, 6 weeks post-op, there is no pain and no restriction of movement. I am very pleased with the results. Why did I wait so long? Thank you Dr. Arntson!

I chose Dr. Mair because of the amazing work he did on my bride’s right knee replacement. When I came to him with severe left hip pain, he reassured me that he would be able to help me get back to a normal lifestyle. At 58 years young, I have a lot I want to do so full recovery is my goal. From the very start, every person I met at the TCO clinic and along the way, have just been so dang caring and have given me so much of their time.

From the day of surgery to my continued follow up appointments, the TCO staff have been with me. I have had several setbacks (from my own doing) and they have been there with advice, therapy, phone calls, urgent care on Sunday, etc. to check on me…even over the weekends. I deeply feel that they genuinely care about my success, which has been very meaningful since replacement surgery includes work and rough moments at times in the healing.

I just finished my 90 days of the program and met with Dr. Mair to review X-rays and progress. I left knowing that I am on the right track and that he is there if I need him, even though the program is completed. His personal accountability to his patients is so refreshing and, to be honest, very valuable in the healing process. I am gaining strength, flexibility, and leaving the pain behind more each day. I fully believe him when he told me I will be out pheasant hunting and chasing my granddaughters. I highly recommend Dr. Mair and TCO.

It has been 3 years already since both of my hips were replaced by Dr. Owen O’Neill. What an awesome guy and surgeon. I am so happy and continue to explore new activities that were not an option to me prior to surgery. I would like to schedule an appointment just to give him a hug. Thank you, Dr. O’Neill!

It’s been 3 months since my shoulder replacement and it’s been awesome. From surgery to physical therapy, things went well and I’ve had less pain each day. Shout out to Ron Fisher (you’re awesome), Dalton Niel, PA-C (thank you), and Dr. O’Keefe (best surgeon ever)!

I had the best experience and treatment with Dr. Asp and his team through the TCO EXCEL program. I had my right knee replacement surgery on March 8, 2021. I did just as I was asked, which included pre-op and post-op exercises, along with physical therapy. I healed very fast it. I was driving within in 3 weeks and am now biking, walking, and my knee feels great. It really helps to have a great surgeon like Dr. Asp. I want to thank him and his team for a great experience. I have to get my left knee surgery done too, but I am not as concerned because of the experience I had. Dr. Asp and his team are the best!
