Patient Testimonials

I had a right shoulder joint replacement. Dr. Hunt did a phenomenal job! I had the nerve block which lasted three days and I had no pain. Icing helped with swelling as well. I was at the TCO EXCEL recovery suite overnight. Everyone there was very kind and took good care of me. They are where attentive to my needs. I highly recommend TCO!

I have been seeing Taylor for shoulder pain, and she is excellent! She is very knowledgeable, understanding and a joy to work with. Aric at the front desk is great! He is very friendly. He knows me by sight and has me checked in before I even get to the desk! I would highly recommend TCO Hudson!

Dr. Fritz and his Care Team did a fantastic job with our 6-year-old daughter! She broke her humerus just above the elbow. Dr. Fritz and his Team were helpful, understanding, knowledgeable, and in tune with what our daughter needed! Our favorite part of the process: our daughter had a loose tooth that the Team thought should come out prior to surgery so she wouldn’t swallow it during surgery. The tooth fairy came to visit during surgery! We highly recommend Dr. Fritz and his Team at TCO!

Eric Barth, the imaging team, and the check-in staff are all top notch. Eric spent time checking all possibilities and took the time to explain what the images showed and could not show. He helped suggest the next level of testing. I left with a less painful shoulder, which is getting better every minute, and a clear understanding of next steps. Thank you TCO team!

I had shoulder surgery performed by Dr. Ockuly after an injury, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the care I received. From the initial consultation to post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Ockuly was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly reassuring. He explained everything clearly, made me feel confident in the process. He treated me with care and respect.

Thanks to his skill and attention to detail, my surgery was a success. I am now well on my way to a full recovery with plans to return to college hockey next season. I highly recommend Dr. Ockuly to anyone in need of orthopedic care. His expertise and dedication made a tough situation much easier to handle.

I saw Wanda Lickteig after spending two years with a tennis elbow problem. Wanda is wonderful! She is a great listener and communicator. Overall, she is a great therapist. I whole-heartedly recommend her to anyone!

Dr. Ockuly performed a total reverse shoulder replacement for me in May. Prior to my surgery, I was not able to work over head or shoot my shot gun. I love to go bow hunting and was not able to shoot my vertical bow. He told me I would be shooting my bow by Fall. It was true and I couldn’t be happier. The TCO team was excellent.

My thanks to Dr. Butterfield and his surgical team for the left total shoulder replacement. Dr. Butterfield’s expertise and precise technique has given me an excellent outcome from this surgery in April of 2025. Dr. Butterfield and his team did a total right shoulder replacement in August of 2021 as well. I went to TCO with a lot of pain in both instances and each outcome resulted in zero pain. TCO’s physical therapy staff showed me how to regain full use of both shoulders. Dr. Wetter also replaced both of my hips back in 2016 and 2018, also with no pain afterwards. The four surgeries I have had have been life changing. Thank you!

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Dr. Meisterling and his entire team for the wonderful care that I received. I needed a surgical repair and follow-up care from an unfortunate trip and fall injury resulting in a torn rotator cuff. Dr. Meisterling listened to me and answered my questions in a very direct and professional manner. He handled my arm very gently during my post-op follow-up visit, which I appreciated. Everyone I encountered was so kind, thoughtful, and helpful as I moved through the process of surgery and the physical therapy that followed. I would highly recommend TCO and Dr. Meisterling’s care team. They are a 10+ out of 10!

Dr. Edward Kelly performed Reverse Total Shoulder Replacement on both of my shoulders. My arthritis and torn rotator cuff attachments limited my ability to do many things before. I now have increased range of motion in both shoulders – motion I have not had in over twenty years. Until I experienced “no pain” in my shoulders after surgery, I didn’t realize how much pain I was in every day.

The whole process, from my first visit through recovery, Dr. Kelly and his staff were there caring for me in a friendly and professional manner. The preparation for surgery, the facility, and everyone involved in my surgeries, were beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Dr. Kelly and his staff! Don’t wait, get it done sooner than later! Having use of my arms makes me feel that I am back in control and can now look forward to more years doing what I want to do. Thank you, Dr. Kelly, and Staff!
