Patient Testimonials

I had a very positive experience at TCO for my hand surgery. I felt very well cared for by Dr. Nishant Dwivedi and the staff at TCO. Dr. Dwivedi was very knowledgeable and clear about surgery risks and benefits. He went into detail about what to expect from the procedure, post-op instructions, and follow up care. I would definitely recommend him!

I had a very positive experience from start to finish. I received excellent care from Dr. Nishant Dwivedi, his staff, the hand therapy team, and everyone at TCO. Dr. Dwivedi is very kind and is very thorough when explained things. I had no apprehension going into surgery because I knew what to expect. Today, I can do day-to-day tasks that I was not able to prior to my surgery. I am extremely happy with the outcome, and I would highly recommend Dr. Dwivedi and TCO to anyone!

Dr. Nishant Dwivedi did an outstanding job with my Seymour’s fracture surgery and clinic checkups. He explained everything that would happen for the surgery and was very thorough. If I had any questions, he made sure to answer them honestly. He was very sweet and had a great bedside manner. He also made sure that nothing was being rushed. I highly recommend Dr. Dwivedi.

I have nothing but good things to say for the care I received from Dr. Ockuly and his team at TCO. As a retired MD, I came into this process with some trepidation. The pre-op assessment for both knees were spot-on. Both surgeries were successful. When asked if I could have the second replacement without a tourniquet, he had no problem. I am very please that I have two new knees with no leg length discrepancy. I am able to walk an average of 10,000 steps a day and have started hiking again. The care I received was superb!

Once again, I’m blown away from the superb treatment and outcome of the Twin Cities Orthopedics staff! My anterior approach hip replacement far exceeded my expectations. Dr. O’Neill was kind, thorough, and a “straight shooter.” Any questions or issues I had were dealt with promptly through his staff. The surgical facilities in TCO Chaska are top notch! I am of the age where my friends are also facing hip replacements. I was the only one of three with the anterior approach and had far less pain with a very fast recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Owen O’Neill! I’ve had three other total replacements with TCO and have always been impressed by the professionalism and expertise of the surgeons I’ve worked with!

I had my right hip replaced by Dr. O’Neill in Feb 2025. Everything went very smoothly from pre and post-op. Dr. O’Neill and his team were great. My recovery went as outlined and was ever easier than discussed. I am ready to get my left hip replaced by Dr O’Neill this fall. I recommend Dr. O’Neill, his team, and the anterior approach to hip replacement.

I could not be more pleased with the results of my carpal tunnel surgery performed by Dr. Nessler. I was 100% back to normal the evening of the surgery and the healing process was as easy as possible. After three weeks, the scar is negligible. Thank you for the team’s skill and artistry.

Dr. Bircher and his team were extremely helpful in putting my mind at ease. Being 73 years old and never having any surgeries prior made me nervous. However, I felt like they were holding my hand the entire way. I would recommend their team to anyone considering a knee replacement. I am comfortable with the team doing my second knee replacement in the near future.

I am 67 years old, and I had a knee replacement done outside of Twin Cities Orthopedics. After my surgery, I still had issues with my knee. I could hardly walk or bend, so I decided to go to TCO. I had a consultation with Dr. Saterbak and she recommended that we do a revision. When I came to see her, I felt so defeated. She did the revision and now I feel like I have my life back. Thank you so much Dr. Saterbak!

I have been seeing Dr. Arntson for five years. He is very kind and a good listener. He provides good information and solutions. He performed a full knee replacement on my right knee, with great results. I had very little pain and discomfort, and excellent mobility ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Dr. Arntson to anyone.
