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.

I had an anterior hip replacement by Dr. Arntson. Everything went smoothly and better than I ever imagined. I recovered quickly. Dr. Arntson has a calm, professional manner that put me at ease. He listens carefully, answered my questions, and overall is very skilled at what he does. The care I received before, during, and after surgery was exceptional.

I had surgery with Dr. Arntson. Overall great experience. My questions fears were answered. The staff from both locations were caring and helped me feel that what I was going through was normal with my condition. They made the recovery time better because they called and checked In with me the day after my surgery. It ended up that i was not taking my medication correctly. They took the time to look up what I should be doing and got me back on track toward healing and recovering. Even my last visit getting the stiches taken out was quick and the lady did it so well that I barely felt it. Well done I thank you all for your hard work and help

This was my last visit after knee replacement surgery, the whole experience was A+. Fantastic aftercare follow ups, excellent PT program. Couldn’t be happier. Was back out XCSkiing without a problem 8 weeks post surgery. Never more than a couple minute wait at any follow up visit & plenty of consult time.

I have been going to Dr. Arnston for awhile now, ever since the pain in my knees started awhile back. He suggested the cortisone shots and they worked for a couple of years. I had been dreading having total knee replacements. He was not pushy at all about getting them. I also had a torn miniscus and had arthroscopic surgery done by him which he did an excellent job. I finally gave in, due to the unbearable bone on bone pain in my knees. He was very thorough on explaining what was going to happen. I am a little over two weeks out and my stitches look great, he has been awesome throughout my journey and I feel so lucky that I found him as my surgeon and would totally recommend him to anyone.

Recently had my left Hip replacement done (right side done 2 years ago). Dr Arntson did both anterior approach. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome of both! Surgery is never really “Fun” but when the end result is no more pain, I can say I’m pretty excited to be pain free! If I find myself in need of anymore new body parts in the future, I will definitely go to Dr. Arntson!

I had terrible swelling and pain in my knee that would not go away. Dr. Arntson was so wonderful in explaining my issue and draining my knee and giving a cortisone shot. The pain is finally gone after weeks of suffering. He is an incredibly caring, careful, sensitive and wonderful doctor!

Dr arntson was right to the point. He told me right out that I would benefit more from other options other than surgery. That was a great fresh of air because usually they just want to do surgery on me and not go through my other options. I was very happy with dr arntson and would definitely recommend him. If anyone is looking for a great orthapedic go see Dr arntson! Very caring .

Three years after my first total knee replacement went awry, I have now had a highly successful replacement -- of the replacement. Dr. Arntson's reputation in the community for being a gifted surgeon made my decision easy when selecting him. What came as an unexpected bonus was that his kindness and underlying sense of humor during office and hospital interactions with him brought me joy.

Dr. Arntson did a total right hip replacement last year and a total left hip replacement this year. Thanks to him and the team at TCO and Mercy hospital I can move with no joint pain. His skill and kindness are greatly appreciated. I would recommend him for any joint issues. His explanation of the procedure and my responsibilities brought comfort to me.

My son was referred to Dr. Arntson, following an accident on the school playground that left him with a broken tibia. We were seen very promptly, Dr. Arntson was not only nice and charming, but quick and efficient. While he left the heavy work of actually doing the cast to his support staff, they were just as nice to my son, who promised Dr. Arntson to behave while he had the cast. He also provided us with a letter, requiring the use of a wheelchair. I was impressed with Dr. Arntson.
