Patient Testimonials

Dr. Lewis and his orthopedic team have conducted all of my surgeries. The latest surgery was on was my right hip. I was in constant pain. On a scale of 0-10, I would rate my pain from 7-9. I had my hip surgery on November 8^th and my pain level went down to nothing. TCO and Dr. Lewis are the best. I can’t say enough praise about them. Thank you for making me pain free. I can now enjoy my retirement and get back to my volunteer work.

Thanks to Brian Ishola and the Training HAUS team, I have experienced the best of the best treatment during my ACL recovery. They have been with me every step of the way. My family and I feel lucky to have access to their many services. My customized workout plan pushes me and makes me feel confident about my return to lacrosse and volleyball!

I would like to thank Christian, Nicole, and the staff that have worked with me through my ACL recovery at Twin Cities Orthopedics. It has been a little more than nine months since my surgery, and I am excited to say that I can start light practices ahead of schedule for soccer. I could not have done this without their help and the ACE strength program. They have helped me gain strength back in my right leg and have gotten me through this recovery better than anyone else could have. They kept me motivated and pushed me to my full potential throughout my whole recovery, physically and mentally. I feel much more confident returning back to my sport (soccer) being a part of the ACE strength program with Christian and Nicole as my physical therapists.

I could not be happier or have enough good things to say about the care, concern, and time that Dr. Hunt provided leading up to my surgery and afterwards. The entire EXCEL Program experience was top notch from beginning to end. The entire team was fantastic every step of the way. The best part is that I have a whole new knee and physical therapy is going great. I would highly recommend Dr. Hunt, his team, and the entire EXCEL Program. They make it effortless with everything packaged together!

My experience with TCO and the EXCEL Program was very positive. I was somewhat apprehensive and had some anxiety prior to surgery. However, Dr. Arntson helped relieve those feelings by explaining everything to me. He is a wonderful doctor and made me feel so comfortable. It was obvious to me from the moment I walked into the surgical center that all of the staff, nurses, therapists, and my doctor want to be here. They gave me the best medical care I have ever received in any medical setting.

The PT staff were a tremendous help and provided me with exercises to do at home. As a result, my recovery has gone very well so far. The nursing staff was outstanding and answered any questions that I or my coach asked. I am looking forward to a more active life and thank everyone at TCO and the EXCEL program for their exemplary care.

I am a first time patient with Dr. Olmsted and was somewhat hesitant going to a new surgeon. However, I am pleased to report that he made me feel at ease, he listened to my concerns, and told me how he would remove my cyst and the after-care involved. It was minor surgery and with antibiotics, the incision healed rapidly and the stiches were removed painlessly one week later by his assistant, Matthew Anderson. Dr. Olmsted is a STAR and I am happy to be one of his patients.
I also want to thank Twin Cities Orthopedics staff and nurses for their friendly, happy service and care. It was a delight to be cared for by such wonderful folks.

Dr. Kelly and his staff were awesome. I will be playing golf next week in Florida.

From the diagnosis to getting back to my normal lifestyle, TCO has provided a top notch process. The care and understanding I received from Dr. Hoel and others has been a great experience!

I’m very happy with the results of my shoulder surgery performed by Dr. Dieterle. I was able to play a total of 63 holes of golf before my 2 month anniversary of surgery!

What wonderful care and information I was given before and after my surgery. Dr. Hartigan and his team are very knowledgeable and could answer all of my questions.
