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.

Doesn’t listen, bad bedside manner
I cannot be sure that Dr Jenssen even read my chart. He entered the room with a bad attitude and pre judged me as a welfare case. He treated me accordingly. He mis-diagnosed me completely and was rude and never even talked to me before he left the room. Now I suffer everyday because of this man.

Great physician.
Dr. Jansen listens attentively and asks appropriate questions. I have used him as an orthopedic doctor for 30 years and he has treated many of my friends very successfully. I appreciate his work and highly recommend him.

Dr J is absolutely the most caring, compassionate, and master surgeon I’ve ever known. I’ve known him since my first surgery over 15 yrs ago. Since then he has brought me through two complete knee replacements with amazing results. I am so grateful for his expertise and excellent bedside manner. Thank you McBride Orthopedics for quality medical teams we can be confident in when the need arises.

Dr. Tom was amazing as always with my little girl, Sophia! He was kind, thoughtful, and caring. He showed empathy for her and her disappointment after being injured in her volleyball game, and laid out the plan for her to get well and back on the court. Top notch doctor and even better man! Chuck

I have had 3 knee surgeries in the last 3 yrs, in addition to being a great surgeon and restoring my health he is also a very kind and compassionate doctor. I hope I will never need another surgery but if I do I will go to Dr. Janssen.

I had my right hip replacement 5 years ago my right hip came out of the socket over 100”s of times, 8 months later Dr Jannssen thought maybe he should do a replacement. I went to McBride’s emergency room many times and every visit they sedated me, I would come home and it would be back out of the socket already during the 8 months I had to learn how to put the hip joint back into the socket. He had me going to therapy for my right hip then I went to his office for an X-ray the right hip was out of the socket. The right hip began to give me some problems a year and a half later but the pain would be intermittent and not severe. But now I have excruciating pain in the right hip on today’s visit my right hip wasn’t hurting at that time. He taken X-ray and an X-ray of my back and asked if I was having lower back pain or taken medications and I said no. He is requesting a MRI on my back and said if the back surgeon say it’s not my back, then he can do a right hip replacement again.

I have had 3 knee surgeries performed by Dr. Janssen. He is very thorough and knowledgeable. He tried all options before suggesting surgery for me on all occasions. I will need 1 more surgery (knee replacement) and I will definitely have him perform it if he is still practicing when the time comes.

Dr. Janssen replaced both of my hips in June and December of 2016. The care I received from him and his staff was exceptional. The results have been life changing. I highly recommend him to anyone considering orthopedic surgery.

Dr Janssen preformed shoulder decompression surgery on me yesterday 2-14-17 at Surgery Center of Oklahoma. I must say everyone at the Surgery Center was awesome. So far my experience with Dr Janssen has been great he has been highly informative and strait forward. I will leave another survey when I get released as to how the remainder of my visits go. Thanks for taking good care of me in surgery Dr Janssen
