I decided on TCO Blaine due to their close location to my home and their new facilities. I contacted my insurance, and they are in-network!! I was able to make my first appt within 7 days of calling. Check-in was a breeze. The lobby directory told me to report to the 2nd floor clinic. Big enough lobby with a big TV and coffee bar. My wait wasn't long. The reception, Medical Assistant (Makenzie??) and Medical Doctor (Dr. Ridley) were friendly and welcoming. After my exam, it was recommended that I return for hand therapy. Appointments are made on the 1st floor so I headed down to that suite. A gentleman helped me make an appointment for 4 days later (today, Friday). So today was my 2nd time here. Today, I met with Katie, an occupational (hand) therapist. She was great! She worked on my wrist, arm, and shoulder to see where I was having pain. She gave me verbal and written instructions/ homework/ daily exercises to do at home for the next couple of weeks. So we'll see how I feel in 6 weeks. It may be one and done, or I'll need to see her again. Haven't received a bill, so I can't speak on that yet.. But overall, I've been happy with how I've been treated.

I would not waste your time/money with these clowns at Summit Orthopedics. I live in Blaine…read moreMinnesota. I went to Summit Orthopedics in Blaine, Vandais Heights and Plymouth offices. The long and short of it is that Kevin Lingren told me to go see Dr. Ed Santos. Dr Ed Santos told me to go see Dr. Saber. Dr Saber then sent me back to Ed Santos and Ed Santos sent me back to Kevin Lingren. I still have no resolution or understand what is wrong with me and it has been 6 months. I am very frustrated with Summit Orthopedics. Just to provide some background - the weekend of May 18, 2024 this started. By that Monday I struggled to walk up the stairs. The first week the pain was in my lower back. I was still able to function normally albeit slowly. Second week I started having trouble sitting. Third week I could not sit at all. It was so painful I had to lie on the floor all the time. The pain was very severe in my left hip and especially in my hip flexors. It felt like it was the entire left hip, front, back and side. First I saw a hip doctor Kevin Lingren on June 7 2024. He took X-rays, looked at them and said my hips are healthy and the problem was probably originating from my spine. No physical exam. He prescribed steroids for me. I made an appointment to see the surgeon Dr Ed Santos. I was impaired greatly and can barely make it through my day. I finally get to see his PA. I complained that the pain was so bad in my left hip flexors, two of them, one in my groin and the one leading to my quadricep. Hurt so bad I could not function. I had to ask for a physical exam. I still don't feel like I had a comprehensive exam, I thought I had more than one thing happening to me but no one addressed another potential issue, they just kept saying severe stenosis. An MRI and PT was prescribed. I could not get into see the PT because they were very busy so I started doing very gentle movements at home. I could not function normally. I could not go to the gym, grocery store or work. I could not function when I got out of bed. I couldn't even prepare something to eat or tie my shoes. I started doing PT movements at home. I watched hours of you tube videos every day to hopefully gain a little knowledge on what might be happening with me, I still had no idea and the doctors did not give me any information beyond stenosis and me having a 6th lumbar vertebrae (which the MRI never mentioned). Since they have the knowledge I would expect that one of these doctors would do a physical exam and could explain what was happening to me. oth hip Flexors were so painful I could not cough or take a deep breath. It hurt too bad to sit on the toilet so I used a female urinal. I couldn't bend over to feed my dogs. I had to lay down on the floor all day every day, either on my back or on my stomach. I ate on the floor. I worked from home laying on my back looking up at the monitors placed on the edge of my desk. EVERY DAY I would watch HOURS of you tube videos to find out how I could help myself and do gentle rehab on myself. My range of motion was poor. My left leg was weak, especially my knee and hip flexors. I fought every day to get it back. I couldn't do anything or go anywhere unless I did rehab. I couldn't take a shower or get ready without having to spend 20 or 30 minutes on the floor to reset my hips. I couldn't drive. I had to wait 6 weeks to go see the surgeon to go over the MRI results. I was in agony. Crying daily. I felt my life was over. I didn't know what was wrong with me. Finally I got to see Dr Santos and he barely spent 5 minutes with me. No physical examination whatsoever. I still was not getting any information. He didn't explain it to me or how/why it happened. Spending time with me to explain this would have helped me a lot. Instead he told me that I basically have stenosis on the left side of my L5/L6. He said he didn't think I would need surgery and he recommended me to go see MD, Dr Saber. I finally was able to see dr. Saber's PA. Although I know the diagnosis of stenosis was accurate, my symptoms are not consistent with stenosis, they are consistent with a soft tissue injury. I passed a lot of the tests they give me because I am physically fit but no one bothered to test my hip flexors even though that is what I have been complaining about the entire time. I failed my left knee jerk reaction. She gave me no physical examination. I was frustrated. I left crying. I was injured on May 20th 2024 and now it is November 10th 2024 I am doing much better but still suffer a little. I still can't really sit in an office chair so I have a sit/stand desk. At home I moved my recliner to my desk. I still have to take Advil and Tylenol but probably half of the day instead of the whole day. I am taking all my information and my MRIs to go see a real doctor at Twin Cities Spine Center. The reason I am better now is because of ME. I want these drs to hear this. They did not help me during a time when I needed it.

I have had two fairly severe Trigger Fingers for many years - Right hand middle and ring fingers…read more These were both getting worse, one frequently locking up on me. Inconvenient and painful! I researched Hand doctors and even had surgery scheduled but a previous bad experience in an operating room left me with much apprehension so I cancelled that. I found Dr. Jon Norberg in an internet search offering just what I wanted - Office based "wide-awake" surgery for these hand (and other) conditions. After a consultation I made an appointment and had both finger pulleys "released" on August 17. 2022. It was easy as can be, with me keeping all my clothes on and hand sterilized/arm draped. He uses a local anesthetic of lidocaine and epinephrine and my hand went totally numb - and as I was very interested, he even let me watch the whole procedure, explaining what he was doing as he went. The small incision that took care of both fingers was made along the crease in the palm of my hand and now I can hardly see it.....no ugly scars vertically or horizontally, and it looks like my hand did before the procedure! Dr. Norberg did an excellent job, and I don't give praise out easily. He's really good! I had the three stitches taken out a week later and aside from having to keep the hand dry for a few days and do some special stretching exercises, it was all good. Every day showed more improvement and with only slight lifting restrictions, my hand was immediately working as it was supposed to, no more trigger fingers, no more pain! Quick and easy! I just went back this week for my 6 week check and he graduated me to the "healed" status. Honestly, the best part about this is that there is no hospital operating room, no stress, it is all done in a small office set up for these procedures, all local anesthetic and as such is quite a friendly atmosphere. Dr. Norberg and his staff are also all very personable, all confident and low-key. I felt like I was among friends and that made for an awesome experience. Dr. Norberg and staff, thanks so much for all you have done for me and for making these "wide awake, office based surgeries" more available to patients like me. To anyone with apprehensions (or not) and looking for easier solutions to hand, wrist, elbow and upper arm problems, I highly recommend you check with Dr. norberg - IMHO, he is the best I have found!

The Park Nicollet on line systems to offer and support their services completely suck. They mention a "reserve a spot in line" feature, but then never offer a way to access it. The published on-line current wait time was 45 minutes, but there wasn't even a line when we arrived and workers said it was very quiet with no patients. The workers there can't do anything about PNs crummy systems so I won't blame them. Check-in was quick and easy performed by pleasant helpers. I had less than five minute wait to go to the exam room for some initial questions by a very friendly nurse, then was whisked to X-ray. No waiting for X-rays, finished in less than ten minutes, then back to the exam room. Doctor came in a minute later, walking me through the X-rays and diagnosis, very competent and friendly. No one ever hopes for a diagnosis of two broken ribs and a six to 8 week recovery, but getting to it quickly, with a minimum of hassles, performed by competent friendly health care workers was a very good experience for me.
