“Dr. Duncan Ackerman repaired my left shoulder five years ago. I am now facing total replacement of my right shoulder. I have no doubt who I am going to have do the surgery.” ~ Ed B. in Bismarck, via Healthgrades
“I would absolutely recommend Dr. Timothy Bopp to anyone seeking a professional and kind orthopedic surgeon. He has worked on multiple members of my family and they have all been very happy with their experience. He is very knowledgeable, willing to answer questions, and shows a genuine concern for his patients.” ~ L. Ever in Bismarck, via Healthgrades
“Dr. Chad Carlson was very knowledgeable regarding my condition. He did not rush me into surgery, opting for other palliative measures first. However, when the time for surgery came, he did not hesitate. The procedure was explained very well and completed in a very competent manner.” ~ Keaton in Minot, via Healthgrades
“Dr. Joe Carlson answered all my questions and offered support for all concerns I had before and after surgery.” ~ Self-verified patient, via Vitals
“If you are at the age where joint replacements may be needed, consider The Bone & Joint Center. Dr. Joe Carlson did a second total knee replacement on me this week. He has to be the best knee doc from Minneapolis to Seattle. I have total and complete confidence in him.” ~ Ron Stromstad, via Facebook
“Dr. Derrick Cote and physician assistant Kellie Laumb are the most amazing medical team anyone could ever have. I love them to pieces.” ~ Vicki Snell, via Facebook
“As I was walking my dogs today, I marveled at the fact that it was just 3 weeks ago I had hip replacement surgery with Dr. Brian Dahl. He and his staff were amazing before, during, and after the surgery. Dr. Dahl never treated me like ‘just another surgery.’ He took the time to address my concerns and learn about me and my lifestyle, so he could do what was best for me. Every day is a little better and I feel like I am getting my life back again. Thank you, Dr. Dahl, and thank you to your wonderful staff as well. I hope it's a long time before I need my other hip done! However, I highly recommend Dr. Dahl to anyone I know with hip or knee pain.” ~ Connie Udby, via Facebook
“I had a life-changing experience at The Bone & Joint Center. This year, I have had two successful hip replacements; I had bilateral congenital hip dysplasia. Now, I am a new woman. Despite seeing other doctors, my painful condition had gone undiagnosed and my pain was brushed off. It was a pain the completely hindered my life. I recommend Dr. Brian Dahl. He is a highly educated, experienced, articulate, and empathetic man.” ~ Jessica Spilovoy Irelan, via Facebook
“Dr. Tim Juelson gave me my life back. So many doctors didn't know if it was my hip or my back. He agreed to look at my hip and found and repaired years of damage no one else could find. He is trustworthy, kind, honest, and a great professional. I also then trusted him for my daughter's condition and, again, he explained what he would do to fix her condition. He isn't going to do surgery until he looks at all of a patient’s options. Dr. Juelson is a great person and doctor.” ~ Lori Whitman-Utter, via Healthgrades
“Dr. Tim Juelson has worked on both of my knees, with great end results. What I like best about him is that he is no-nonsense and very straightforward. I just got done with my follow-up after the second knee surgery. He answered all of my questions, even though he was running behind. I would highly recommend Dr. Juelson. The front desk staff and physical therapy department are great as well.” ~ Christina Port-Markwardt, via Facebook
“Dr. Tim Juelson should be your first and only stop for surgery. My results have been outstanding. I did a lot of research before choosing him. If you're active and want to get back to what you love – this is your surgeon.” ~ Brandi Hoff, via Facebook
“I had an upper extremity, proximal humerus injury on Labor Day 2018. It was very painful, but Dr. Brock Norrie provided excellent care, listened to everything I had to say about the injury, and then developed a plan. I appreciate that I can see him when he is here at the Minot CHI Clinic.” ~ unnamed, via Healthgrades
“Dr. Troy Pierce and his staff did an excellent job fixing my shoulder using a noninvasive surgery technique, despite it needing significant repair. I am very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Pierce to others.” ~ Dave A. in Bismarck, via Healthgrades
“Dr. Troy Pierce and his friendly staff were exceptional. He came highly recommended by others and he did not disappoint. I am grateful for his expertise and am now able to maintain my active lifestyle with much improvement in my shoulder!” ~ John, via Healthgrades
