Dr Gerlinger and his team are A plus! I went for four years suffering from knee pain. I had to stop hiking, and found it difficult to carry my grandchildren or climb the playground equipment with them. I am 6 weeks out of a partial knee replacement today. I am writing this from my seat on the plane where I just finished racing through the airport to make this connecting flight! No problem and no pain. So very grateful to this highly skilled surgeon and his top notch team. Also, big shout out for the daily messages. So very useful, as they answered all my questions as they arose.

Dr. Gerlinger has operated on my husband and we fill very comfortable with his decisions. Came to him for left hip pain. With the movement I have without pain, I don't need surgery. Moving forward with nonsurgical back doctor.

At 8 weeks I am feeling good. Doctor Gerlinger and his staff were great to work with. They answered all of the questions I had before and after the surgery. The physical therapy site I went to, that Dr Gerlinger recommended was excellent.

Dr. Gerlinger really helped me to decide to move forward with hip replacement surgery. Alissa also was just great in explaining things as far as the surgery. I’m so confident that it will go well. His entire staff is kind and calming.

Dr. Tad Gerlinger is a great clinician. He performed complex surgery on me in 2016. I returned in 2024 for a different matter. He & staff are great communicators. G . Andros

Four weeks ago today I had a partial knee replacement with Dr. Gerlinger from Midwest Orthopedics at Rush in Oakbrook. I was home recovering within hours after the procedure. His practice encompasses daily texts which explain what you should be experiencing throughout each day. Those texts were spot on every day! He has you start physical therapy one week after surgery, which my recovery is ahead of schedule. In my opinion, I believe Dr. Gerlinger and his staff are top notch, a best in class practice that I would highly recommend.

Had knee replacement surgery with Dr. Gerlinger. He did an excellent job, after three weeks the scar has almost disappeared. Have had a great experience from start to finish. His staff does a great job as well.

Helped my knee to stop hurting thru a combination of drainig fluid from my knee followed by a steroid injection. Very capable and easygoing demeanor. I highly recommend him.

I was very pleased with the results from my visit. A non- surgical route seems possible and I’m all- in on that. The steroid injection led to relief from pain and increased mobility within a few hours after the procedure. Hopefully my insurance approves the hyaluronic acid injection. I’ll pay for it out of my own pocket if it doesn’t. Thank you for your great care!

Dr Gerlinger and his team made my partial medial knee replacement the best surgery experience I have ever had. They are diligent about keeping you well informed and well supported throughout the process. Other Doctors told me to wait to get a full knee replacement when I was older, which meant forgoing my favorite activities now. I am a very active 59 year old who only had missing cartilage on one side of my knee, so with Dr Gerlinger’s expertise in partials, I felt strongly that this was the best solution, and it turned out wonderfully.
