I had an excellent experience with Dr. Chen. She took the time to listen to my concerns, carefully evaluated my ankle, and explained everything clearly. The experience made me feel very confident in her treatment plan. I would highly recommend her to others, and I truly appreciated the excellent care she provided.

Dr. Owen O’Neill performed my total left hip replacement, and for me, it truly was a life-changing experience!

My husband and I are amateur competitive ballroom dancers, and for years, I danced despite worsening hip pain. With the help of Advil and other anti-inflammatory medications, I managed to keep going until last September, when the pain became so excruciating that I could barely walk. I initially met with another orthopedic practice, where I was encouraged to have a cortisone injection. Knowing it would only postpone the inevitable need for a hip replacement, I decided to seek a second opinion. A friend who had experienced a difficult hip replacement gave me some advice I’ll never forget: “Find a surgeon who has performed thousands of hip replacements – not hundreds, but thousands.”

My search led me to Dr. Owen O’Neill, and I couldn’t be more grateful that it did. From the very beginning, Dr. O’Neill and his team provided a clear, well-structured program designed to deliver the best possible outcomes for his patients. I simply followed their instructions and their plan the way a good cook follows a trusted recipe. Today, just ten weeks after surgery, I’m feeling strong, pain-free, and ready to return to the dance floor.

Recovery wasn’t always easy. It takes patience, commitment, and time to heal. But every step of the journey has been worth it. I now have a new hip, a new outlook, and the freedom to enjoy the activities I love again. I am deeply grateful to Dr. O’Neill and his outstanding team for giving me my life back!

I chose to have my thumb surgery at Twin Cities Orthopedics because they have great physicians. Dr. Dwivedi is one of them! I really liked working him and he did a great job. I was well informed the whole way through, and my healing is going very well. I would definitely recommend TCO and Dr. Dwivedi.

Dr. Dwivedi is a wonderful doctor. He is very caring, understanding, and explained things very well. The nurses and the occupational therapists were fantastic. I am doing the exercises they showed me, and my healing is going well. I am very thankful for Dr. Dwivedi’s care. TCO is a wonderful, clean place to go. I would absolutely recommend them!

I had surgery for my De Quervain tenosynovitis and couldn’t be more pleased. My recovery is going very well, as is my occupational therapy. I really enjoyed working with Dr. Dwivedi. He was very honest and gave me a clear direction on with follow-up and recovery instructions. He trusted me to take care of my body and I in turn trusted him to take care of the steps that needed to happen. Dr. Dwivedi and the occupational hand therapy team worked well together to ensure my proper healing. I would highly recommend Dr. Dwivedi!

I had a distal radius fracture repaired with Dr. Nishant Dwivedi. I have nothing but positive things to say! I now have full use of my wrist, and I am doing everything I did prior to my injury. I was very impressed and pleased with Dr. Dwivedi and the whole process at TCO. My recovery has gone very well and I am very thankful. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Dwivedi!

Dr. Chen is very personable and knowledgeable. She gave me great advice with toe spacers before and after surgery. The bunion surgery recovery went very well! I was doing my home gym lifting workout in my little boot after week one. Workouts helped bring inflammation down with extra circulation. It felt good. She gave me exercises to do to strengthen feet. By one month, I was walking on the beach. I only took Tylenol post-surgery. The incision looks good and feels good. I am ready to do my other foot next December/January with Dr. Chen. Her and her staff were great on checking in throughout the process of my recovery.

Drew Gienau is personable and attentive. He listened to my goals and helped me find technology for every activity I wanted to get back to. Prosthetics are constantly advancing, and TCO is on the cutting edge. I’m back to mountain biking and dirt biking, and am working on getting back on my motorcycle. Without Drew and my care team at TCO, I’d still be in a wheelchair.

In March of 2025, our son, Graeme, tore his meniscus in a snowboarding accident. He immediately started physical therapy with Brett Peterson and then had a full meniscus repair with Dr. Andrew Schmiesing in April. Graeme continued PT with Dr. Peterson vigorously two to three times per week and was back to a full successful football season. In the winter, he made the varsity basketball team and led the team in three-point percentage and field goal percentage as an eighth grader. Without Dr. Peterson’s time and dedication to Graeme, none of this would be possible.

Terry

Thank you, TCO, for a life-changing hip replacement and exceptional care. After years of hip stiffness and pain from osteoarthritis, I had surgery with Dr. David Hartigan in August 2025 and started my rehab. Six months later, I saw major progress when transitioning between walking and completing two 5Ks in 2026. At 65 years old, I am stronger, faster and pain-free. I’m grateful for the professionalism, support, and outstanding results from the entire TCO team.
