Patient Testimonials

I have had phenomenal experiences with TCO, and my last surgery was no different. I had to go up to the Wyoming clinic last minute due to some pain. Dr. Karlstad’s PA, Cole Smith, called me personally and fit me in. The front desk receptionist even went above and beyond making me coffee the morning of my appointment. I wish I knew her name since she was amazing! Lisa and Rachel from Dr. Karlstad’s team were also phenomenal. Honestly, without them taking my calls, helping me handle paperwork for the surgery, and comforting my nerves, I would have been a total wreck! Dr. Karlstad has now done two hand surgeries for me and both were successful! I highly recommend Dr. Karlstad and his amazing team!

Dr. Davis saved me from a lifetime of pain and has given me my life back. I was unable to stand, walk, or even lay in bed without being at a level 10 pain all the time. My first surgery was a C5, C6, and C7 total disc replacement. After the surgery, I regained the use of my hands. I was immediately sold on Dr. Davis and his entire team. Every one of them is an expert in their field.

I had three more surgeries replacing discs and adding some screws, cages, rods, and a spinal stimulator. Now, I can make it through my week without the use of opioids. After years of pain medication, endless steroid injections, and many muscle relaxers to manage my pain, I can now enjoy spending time with my grandkids. I owe it all to Dr. Davis and his team! God bless them and their work.

We had an outstanding experience with Dr. Dwivedi as our hand surgeon. From the very first appointment, he demonstrated an exceptional bedside manner—kind, patient, and genuinely caring. He took the time to explain the procedure in clear, easy-to-understand terms and made sure all our questions were answered thoroughly.

What truly stood out was how detailed he was in preparing us for both the surgery and the recovery process. He walked us through exactly what to expect, which helped ease a lot of anxiety and allowed us to feel confident and informed every step of the way.

Dr. Dwivedi is not only a skilled and knowledgeable surgeon but also incredibly friendly and approachable. His positive attitude and professionalism made a stressful situation much easier to handle. We’re so grateful for the excellent care and would highly recommend him to anyone needing hand surgery.

Dr. Dwivedi is amazing. I had a very positive experience with my hand surgery. I feel I am completely healed and have gained back my strength. I have had other surgeries in the past, and I truly can say out of all the surgeons I have had, Dr. Dwivedi is the most compassionate doctor of them all. You can tell that he truly cares about his patients. He is the best in the business!

Thank you to Dr. Meyer for fixing my hand. He is truly an amazing surgeon and fixed what no other doctor was able to do. I am beyond grateful, and words cannot describe how thankful I am. I am so glad I was able to find Dr. Meyer. He truly is a miracle worker. Thank you to Dr. Meyer and his Team for giving me my life back.

Dr. Nishant Dwivedi did such a great job explaining my situation for severe carpal tunnel, which I had thought was from my previous knee surgery. I am really pleased with him and my hand therapist. I followed his recommendations, and I now have equal strength in both hands. He is a very good listener. Overall, it was a really good experience.

I had a very good experience overall. After having surgery for trigger finger, my symptoms have completely gone away. Dr. Nishant Dwivedi is a great listener. I would highly recommend him!

Dr. Nishant Dwivedi was amazing! My adult son, Nate, fell and broke both wrists. Both were severely damaged. We met with Dr. Dwivedi for a consultation and scheduled surgery which was quite extensive. I was so impressed with Dr. Dwivedi’s bedside manner. He was polite and patient in answering all our questions. He did not rush and was very thorough in explaining the surgical process. Nate is recovering well and his X-rays after surgery were very favorable thanks to the skilled hands of Dr. Dwivedi. Thank you!

My daughter had surgery with Dr. Dwivedi to repair her right thumb fracture after she was involved in a car accident. During the many visits we had with him, my husband and I both think that Dr. Dwivedi’s bedside manner was beyond amazing. We absolutely love him! He is beyond the best of the best. He takes his time with patients and is wonderful! We would definitely recommend him.

I had made an appointment in December 2024 for surgery with a general Orthopedic surgeon for my right thumb joint due to arthritis. He had quickly described the surgery to me, and I asked him if he thought I could have both thumbs done by the end of the year. He said that he thought it should be fine. I had made an appointment with Dr. Dwivedi to talk about surgery for my left thumb joint, since the original surgeon didn’t have any openings.

My first impression of Dr. Dwivedi was that he was warm, caring, and gentle. He took his time explaining the surgery, the Ligament Reconstruction, and the Tendon Interposition (LRTI) in a detailed way that I fully understood what to expect. He highly recommended that I did not get both thumbs done so close together. With his thorough explanation, I understood and agreed. I chose to reschedule my original surgery for my right thumb with Dr. Dwivedi and I couldn’t have been happier. I was nervous the day of the surgery, but he was upbeat, calm, and reassuring. I trusted him completely. The night of the surgery, he even called me to see how I was doing.

I am a person who asks a lot of questions until I fully understand things and he was very patient. He seemed happy and excited to share his knowledge with me. My husband and I could tell that he is passionate with his job and takes pride in his work. Every appointment, I was met with his gentle handshake, warm smile, and friendly demeanor. My sister works at the surgery center where the surgery was performed, and she has heard so many great things about him. My hand therapist also said she has heard the same about Dr. Dwivedi. I am so thankful that I chose to have the surgery performed by Dr. Dwivedi! I would highly recommend him and will have him do my left hand sometime this year.
