r to surgery Dr. Gerlinger’ s office provided support materials that included links to websites about how the surgery is done, medications and after care. Recovery was surprisingly quick with physical therapy support. Within 3 weeks I was limping less than I had prior to the surgery. Much less pain than I anticipated.

With the perspective of being 3 months post lateral right hip replacement, I'm delighted to share incredibly positive remarks about the experience I had with Midwest Orthopaedics, Dr. Tad Gerlinger and the support staff involved in my pre-op, intra-op, post-op and post-acute recovery. His ability to engage me as a peer healthcare professional balancing information with empathy was an so appreciated. I'd recommend Dr. Gerlinger, his staff and the Midwest Orthopaedics Group with the highest possible rating.

My total knee replacement surgery has been a great experience. Of course, I had pain and discomfort for the first couple of weeks but the texts I received from Dr. Gerlinger helped me through the tough times. The texts were encouraging and very helpful, I felt affirmed at every stage of my recovery. I recommend Dr. Gerlinger to anyone facing a knee replacement. I will be having my left knee replaced next spring and will have Dr. Gerlinger do the honors.

Six weeks ago I had a partial knee replacement performed by Dr. Gerlinger, and I could not be more pleased by the outcome and the experience in general. Dr. Gerlinger's descriptions of the surgery and the recovery were clear and accurate; the advice and information he provided, both pre- and post-surgery, significantly enhanced my experience and the speed of my recovery. He and his team were highly professional and dedicated to providing to me the best possible results. Within a few days after my surgery I could walk without pain for the first time in years, and after six weeks I am well on my way to regaining full strength in my leg and resuming all the activities I enjoyed before the pain in my knee prevented them. Dr. Gerlinger is a highly skilled and caring doctor for whom I have the highest regard.

Dr Gerlinger and his entire staff are super friendly and efficient. Everything runs like clockwork. A few years ago he replaced both of my hips and one knee. The remaining knee gets done in a few weeks. No stress whatsoever - I know I’m in good hands.

At the moment I am 6 weeks post TKR and I am very happy with the results so far. Dr Gerlinger & his staff are all very professional. I felt they really listened to you as a patient & truly cared about your recovery. Receiving the daily texts after the replacement was a great reminder of the exercises to do in my recovery journey. Thank you for restoring my right knee back to normal.

Dr.Gerlinger is great doctor ,he answered all my questions. And he explains to you about the type of percidure your having and he makes you feel comfortable. I'm hoping that he will complete my second knee surgery because I know he does excellent work.

I highly recommend Dr. Tad Gerlinger. He did a left hip replacement on both my husband and me. We are both very satisfied with the results of the surgeries. Dr, Gerlinger is very professional and friendly when meeting with us and answers our questions with care and concern.

Dr. Gerlinger and his staff were excellent with regard to my hip replacement surgery. They prepared me well so there were absolutely no surprises on the rehabilitation side of this process. After two days, I was walking with crutches and these were discarded after a week. Now after five weeks, I am back to full strength and feel great. I extremely pleased with this process and everything actually exceeded my expectations.
