      Meant with Doctor and his nurse they took pic’s of my right knee after he looked at the x-rays he told me everything looked good and he’d see me in 3 years. All told I was at Rush Oak Brook maybe 1 hour and then on my way. Great Doctor If recommend him to anyone seeking knee surgery.

        My experience with Dr. Gerlinger and his team was outstanding. Collectively they are a well oiled machine which made the whole experience much easier. Dr. Gerlinger is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. Everything was explained so I knew what to expect from surgery, rehab and recovery. I have no pain and have been able to get back to my favorite activities. Even took a few strokes off the golf score. I would highly recommend Dr. Gerlinger.

          My visit with Dr Tad Gerlinger was an awesome experience. He and his fellowship both examined my right hip, leg and knee along with e-rays that reassured me my Prosthetics were not damaged from my resent fall. A shot of cortisone and a script for some therapy completed my visit. He and his team made me feel calm and comfortable. He is polite, excellent communicator and provided me a reassurance the pain should be gone within a short period of time. I will be forever thankful for his skills and surgically rebuilding my pelvis and right hip almost a decade ago that given me the opportunity to enjoy a wonder Life. Thank you!

                Great staff each of whom was very friendly. Dr. Gerlinger took his time explaining the procedure and answered each of my questions. I never felt rushed as he and his staff were generous with their time.

                  Dr Gerlinger is great surgeon. He has done a hip and knee for me previously. Scheduling a reversion of my left knee. Highly recommend him. Top notch.

                    Dr Gerlinger takes his time to discuss what his findings are, he's very professional. Prior to having my knee replacement performed I asked around and talked to nurses my wife knows that work with him in the operating room in the surgery center he operates out of. They said he is a very good surgeon. A coworker of mine had his knee replaced by De Gerlinger and received very good results with his knee replacement. I'm about 5 months post op and an doing well.

                            Having done a lot of research into how to pick the right ortho surgeon and questions to ask, I came across MOR and its plethora of skilled doctors. I then reviewed every bio, checked out every certification, read every review and decided Dr. Gerlinger would be my surgeon if he agreed I needed surgery. He did. MOR is a well-oiled machine -- I had X-rays done before my first appointment was scheduled to begin, then met with his PA before meeting Dr. G. Everyone was knowledgeable and helpful, including Kelly, his nurse, and the office administrator. The pre-op package explains everything in detail; the medicine regimen is incredible and works like a charm if you follow it to the T. Surgery was quick because of the number of hours Dr. G has; his skill and precision became more evident as the days and weeks passed. If you do everything he tells you -- starting before surgery -- you will heal quickly and breeze through PT. Definitely sign up for the texts; they are everything from exercises and gentle reminders to do your exercises daily to a guide on where you should be in the healing/recovery process and when you should be off pain meds. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. G and his staff and if I ever need another one, even if I don't live in the area any more, I would come back just to have him do it. He's an asset to hip replacement!

                              Dr Gerlinger and staff are exceptional! I have had 2 total knee replacements in 3 months. I can not be happier. My range of motion is about 115 and no pain. I can't believe how my knees feel already. I'm a walker and am excited to get back to my life style. The texts offer so much good information from a Dr who cares about you and your outcome. Daily texts give you encouragement along with links if you need more info. I recommend going to the best. Thank you Dr Gerlinger and Staff.

                                My experience with Dr. Gerlinger and his entire group regarding my left hip replacement was second to none!! I have never before experienced such a professional and truly caring group. They are always willing to answer any questions you may have and never make you feel rushed or as though you are bothering them. It is like talking to someone you’ve known your entire life. I would recommend Dr. Gerlinger and his group to anyone seeking a hip or knee replacement.

                                    I have had a hip and knee replacement with Dr. Gerlinger. I wouldn't go to anyone else for surgery. He's very kind and explained everything to me. There were no surprises and I healed quickly.

                                          The staff was very friendly. The doctors explained what was causing my leg pain. Also helped alleviate some of the swelling below my knee.

                                            Dr Gerlinger is a great Dr. He is very professional. He takes his time listening to you and then checks out all that you discussed with him. He is very thorough. He did a total knee replacement on both of my knees and they feel great. I would recommend him to anyone.
