Patient Testimonials

I met Alicia Barnick, CPT in mid-November of 2020. I was scheduled to have knee replacement surgery in February of 2021. I wanted to get stronger before that surgery and took advantage of TCO having a Personal Trainer. Alicia and I hit it off right away. She was very caring and concerned with my physical needs as she helped prepare me for surgery. Since 2020, I have continued working with Alicia through her Pilates sessions. She is always attune to what I need whether it be strengthening or stretching my muscles. She challenges me but is also very attentive to my physical setbacks which include low back pain and my right hip before and after hip replacement surgery in 2022.

I have had many physical highs and lows, and Alicia was always there supporting my efforts. Alicia is a great asset to TCO. I hope that she is appreciated for her commitment to her clients and her hard work for TCO. Alicia is one of the biggest reasons why I have had such long lasting physical strength and stability.

Dr Bircher and his team did a great job replacing my arthritic hip. I had no trouble recovering and my hip feels great.

Dr. O’Neill and his team is simply the best. From the first appointment all the way through surgery and follow up, everyone was professional and took their time to answer any questions about the procedure and PT program. Dr. O’Neill did a wonderful job and I am pain free and back to my normal activities. I highly recommend Dr. O’Neill and his team if you are looking for a first class orthopedic surgeon and support team. I couldn’t be more pleased with the whole experience.

I saw Dr. Bhatt and I was very impressed (10 out of 10) with the care and knowledge she has in the hand and elbow area. She was easy to speak with and talked about my pain without using all of those big medical terms. I would highly recommend her.

I was a patient of Dr. Sufka at another location. He is very thorough and takes his time discussing your issues. He is very gentle with injections, including the ones he performed in my shoulder joints. I will definitely see him again!

Dr. Bloom is the “real deal!” He listens, he validates, he teaches and a long-term plan is developed by the time you leave his office. His kindness and understanding surrounds his patients and you immediately believe he won’t give up on you.

Dr. Nessler did my hip replacement soon after I saw him and it is wonderful. I can walk with no pain. Thank you, Dr. Nessler!

It’s been exactly 2 years, but I am more grateful every day for having chosen Dr. Meyer and his staff. Dr. Meyer is recognized as a highly skilled and conscientious physician. His serious, yet caring approach, as well as saying, “YOU tell ME when you’re ready,” gave me the confidence to move ahead, and the appreciation for having done so.

Dr. Bircher did an amazing job to fix my original hip replacement that left me with an uneven leg and fractured femur. His expertise corrected the leg length and gave me a stable implant. He is an excellent surgeon that cares about his patients! His whole team is fabulous!

I had a knee replacement in Michigan in 2012. About 6 years later I began experiencing pain and had an X-ray which showed loosening of the prosthesis. Foolishly, I let it go, moved to Minnesota, and limped along. Finally in 2023, I consulted Dr. Bircher who discovered my prosthesis was literally hanging by a thread. He explained all the risks of surgery as well as the advantages, and he performed the operation in October 2023. The results have been fantastic. I was in an immobilizing soft cast for 3 weeks but already walking with a walker within days of the surgery. I have had no pain. I have been doing home therapy and outpatient therapy at the excellent TCO facility in Plymouth. I have a new lease on life. Dr. Bircher is a compassionate surgeon with tremendous experience and I can recommend him highly. You cannot go wrong with Dr. Bircher.
