Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Absolutely excellent
15 years ago, Dr. Jebson screwed together my broken up left scaphoid bone. My hand returned to, and retained, 100% of its original function. I was reminded of his great work when a specialist recently saw an x-ray of my hand. He said the repair was "beautiful" and wanted to know who did it. Thanks much, Dr. Jebson.

Dr Jebson is my hero. After two years and five doctors later all telling me I had arthritis I went to AnnArbor where I met up with Dr Jebson. Found out I had a rare bone disease he discovered right away and has been treating me ever since. I have had to have multiple surgeries which he did. So happy with him. Very kind and good bed side manners. Really took the time to explain things to me. Will miss him greatly for taking care of my hands

Dr. Jebson has been AMAZING!!! My son, a Disabled Veteran, returned home at the young age of 21 with multiple upper extremity injuries sustained while serving in the United States Marine Corps. It was hard to find a specialist that would accept my son as a new patient. When I reached out to Dr. Jebson, he didn’t give it a second thought and has been treating my son for the past 3 years. What I love about Dr. Jebson is he immediately connected with my son and was able to communicate on his level. He was proactive in treating the injuries that were visible and those that weren’t. He is extremely knowledgeable about PTSD and didn’t make my son feel uncomfortable about either of his diagnosis. As a Mom, watching your child fight these battles every day at such a young age is heart-wrenching. To have a surgeon who understands it is priceless. Dr. Jebson has been a blessing to us and will always have a special place in our hearts!!

frequent flyer here. I've had the pleasure of Dr.Jebsens consummate professionalism through the process of two surgeries. My first encounter was for a rather routine boxers break, however, the trauma that caused the boxers break, also resulted in a fracture of my right middle proximal phalanx. My primary care reviewed the X-rays, and immediately referred me to orthopedic surgery, hinting that I may have a larger issue at play. I was concerned, What had caused this pathologic fracture? Dr. J instantly diagnosed the underlying issue as an Endochondroma; a benign tumor. Concerned and frightened of the prospect of having a tumor in me! Dr. J's expertise guided me to a logical and comprehensive solution. Through the efforts of Dr. Jebsens staff, navigating insurance claims,follow up visits (Jethari,David), Stephanie P in imaging, the physical therapy and rehab department, I am feeling and functioning 10x better than before! in short Comprehensive, logical, cordial, with no BS. Thats Dr.J

I went to Dr. Jebson after my 2nd surgery on left index finger did not work out and my options appeared dismal to save the finger I had cut off 3 years prior. After my initial consultation Dr. Jebson was very optimistic about saving the finger and really had a specific game plan for it which really gave me confidence. Surgery turned out better than expected and although the recovery road is never as fast as you would like it, the finger has healed and is in the best shape possible. But is still there with feeling which was the ultimate goal. I definitely recommend Dr. Jebson, he did a wonderful job and was great to work with.

Dr. Jebson has been treating me for several different issues with my arms. He is very thorough and always takes time to listen to my complaints. He spends a lot of time running tests and making sure he has the details of what's going on. He's very honest and tells it the way it is. He has a great personality and has a very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I am extremely glad I found him.

Dr. Jebson did surgery on my right wrist on April 4, 2019, because I broke the radius. I am very happy with him as a person and a surgeon. He is very thorough & takes pride in his work. He is a very caring & friendly person, he takes time to listen to you and answers all of your questions. I would highly recommend him as a surgeon.

I first saw Dr. Jebsen 2 years ago for extreme pain in both of my hands. His diagnosis was right on and now after three surgeries I am pain free and able to use my hands again. From the beginning, all my questions were answered, all my options were explained, and the professionalism of the doctor and staff was exceptional. My wife and I are so very thankful that we found Dr. Jebsen. We would highly recommend him.

Dr. Jebson is my hero. When I fractured my wrist, there was the possibility of needing surgery. Being an orthopedic surgeon, I fully anticipated that he would recommend it. Instead, Dr. Jebson took a noninvasive course of action, carefully monitoring my injury with x-rays and a new cast for the first four weeks. I am grateful to have healed without surgery. Dr. Jebson is professional, thorough, and a great listener. His staff is exceptional and compassionate. They are a great team.

Dr Jebson has a very personable kind listening ear for your problem. Awesome in fixing the issue with my arm and forearm. He knew exactly what was wrong with it and repaired it. Nice to have a surgeon in the office as well as the OR being certain that your needs are met. Answered each question and concern that I had and made me feel that I was in the best of hands .The best of the BEST....

I had surgery for Dupuytrens Contracture with Dr Jebson and it was a complete success. Dr Jebson is a real pro and to the point. This was a revision not of his which I understand is even more serious. He told me what to expect and he was right on. He is a very busy surgeon but the wait was definitely worth it. I am very satisfied.

Dr Jebsen and the entire staff of Spectrum Orthopedics were excellent, from painlessly reducing my wrist fracture through the 2 surgeries needed to stabilize the fracture with a plate and then it's removal.

I saw Dr Jebson for pain in my wrist, which he diagnosed as Kienbock's Disease. I wondered if I would ever have use of my hand again. Dr Jebson is a skilled surgeon, and he performed a complicated radial shortening with osteotomy. He worked beside the physical therapist and the person who made my cast. Along with this, his bedside manner is great. He always was comforting and reassuring throughout the treatment. I have complete range of motion in my wrist today. I am so thankful!
