I had simple knee ACL surgery but I don't believe Dr. Olsen did the surgery, he sent in his trainee that did a HORRIBLE job on my knee. They said I could run after 6 months and later on, would be able to walk well, that the pain and swelling would stop. That was a 'happy' thought that has never happened. AFTER surgery in about 2016 first thing I remembered was being in SO much pain all I could do is scream and CRY when I came to! They gave me NOTHING for the pain, only when I got into my room was I able to take one of MY OWN NORCO pain pills so I could stop crying my eyes out. Anesthesiologist did not do his job right and major nerves were affected and had the gall to send me a $300 co pay bill for a job not done.
The nightmare continued with knee swelling, intense pain when I walked so I kept wearing my knee support to try to hold down the severity of it. If Dr. Olsen did this surgery he should be disbarred forever. 2 years later, same story, KNEE swells horribly even when I only walk through the house, pain is intense with much of any use and sometimes without any use. 2021, same condition and the muscles beside the knees are in intense pain, no improvement. This was a very poor job, if his helper really did do the surgery he should be thrown out of the medical field as well. This is a HORRIBLE THING to do to a person's life! HORRIBLE! read more
