Patient Testimonials

Always wonderful! I play volleyball with my son a lot and not being able to do that was going to be hard for me. Dr. Flikkema truly understood my physical pain but also an emotional pain. Thank you to Dr. Flikkema and his team!

This was the first time I ever broke a bone. I got referred to Dr. Nielsen and he told me I had to have surgery. I cried because who wants to be cut open. However, he did a wonderful job making sure I was comfortable throughout the process. Dr. Nielsen and his team are amazing! I don’t ever want to break a bone again, but they made my recovery experience better. Thank you to the whole team!

Grant Blasczyk was very thorough and took all the time necessary to assess the source of my problems during our first appointment. He explored several different physical therapy exercises before recommending the most beneficials ones for me to continue. He also took the time to confirm that I was doing them appropriately before I left. He offered some simple corrections to make sure I am getting the most out of each exercise. I am excited to continue my sessions and exercises with him.

Dr. Jeremiah Johnson, along with Madison Styrlund and the rest of his team, made my recent partial knee replacement a truly positive experience. Initially, they performed a meniscus repair, but sadly, I re-tore that same meniscus. However, they offered me excellent options with great care and knowledge. They were incredibly patient and thorough throughout the process. The partial knee replacement was a success, and my recovery has been going wonderfully. I am now back to walking regularly and looking forward to getting back to running and skiing within the year. Dr. Johnson and his team have had a profoundly positive impact on my life, and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

I had a great experience at TCO Hudson for my physical therapy. My PT, Ben Danovsky, was super knowledgeable and encouraging. While the recovery was long, I progressed each week. I was happy to come to PT and see the improvements. I highly recommend TCO and Ben for any physical therapy needs.

Dr. Jeremiah Johnson and his care team went out of their way to ensure maximum care was given. I had a hip repair six-months prior to my hip replacement that did not go well when I saw a different physician outside Twin Cities Orthopedics. I was nervous to have another surgery so quickly to correct prior mistakes. However, I have been super happy with the results of my surgery and would completely trust Dr. Johnson with any future surgeries at TCO.

I had both of my knees replaced by Dr. Bircher. Post surgery went very well and I had no issues. My recovery time was quicker than I expected. Dr. Bircher was easy to schedule surgeries with at specific times that fit my needs. I am very pleased with the results.

I was a nervous about what might be going on with my ankle pain. It was getting worse, and I began to have trouble walking. Dr. Bisch put me right at ease. He was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. He also had a very caring manner about him, which helped with my nervousness. He did a comprehensive exam and ordered the necessary tests I needed. He was clear when discussing my next steps. He truly listened to my concerns about long term implications. His goal was more than just a quick fix. Dr. Bisch helps people get back to what they love to do. I feel very confident and relieved that my ankle issue would not have long-term impacts on my life. I am grateful to have received such great care.

I was referred to Dr. Arntson by three different people who had such praise for his work. I trust my friends so I knew I could trust Dr. Arntson. He is kind, gentle, and knows exactly what he’s doing during surgery. I would have Dr. Arntson do any future surgeries if they would arise.

When I was having trouble standing after sitting for long stretches of time, I thought it was just an old age thing—I’m 71! Turns out, my knees were bone on bone. I saw Dr. Cooper and his assistant, April. She was wonderful. I was nervous because I’d never had a surgery like this before, and she kept me calm and explained everything. She told me to build up my protein and do certain exercises before surgery, so I’d have a smoother recovery. After the surgery, I had a lot of bruising, which she’d warned me about. I got off pain killers after a week and was walking alone after two weeks. April was there every step of the way to reassure me everything was normal and that I was making good progress.
