Patient Reviews

“I had been to physical therapy for my back pain, had injections that only lasted a few months. I was told my hip was a big part of the problem. After surgery I have no back pain and I had suffered with the pain for 14 months or more.  It was like a miracle.     ”

“Dr. Boyea is one of my favorite doctors he is always smiling. He is kind and has worked on me quite a few times. The office girls are very nice and also the nurses are friendly and helpful. I've never had a bad experience at the office. ”

“Dr. Hansen is great. Upfront, honest, and professional. He will be doing my hip replacement surgery in June and I am not the slightest bit nervous about it, as I am extremely comfortable with his credentials, his competency, and his credibility as an orthopedic surgeon. He is knowledgeable and treated me as an equal—no hint of condescension. I appreciate his professionalism. ”

“This is my second experience with Dr. Jelinek. Three years ago I had my left shoulder operated on. Since then I tore my rotator cuff on my right shoulder. I knew I wanted Dr. Jelinek to do this surgery also as he knew my past history. Once again he did a great job. Very little pain this time and I am recovering well. Thank you Dr. Jelinek and your staff for you great care and kindness during my injury. You guys are amazing! ”

“Dr. Hansen was the most kind, compassionate person for my mother who fell & broke her hip. He replaced her hip and spent a lot of time explaining things to us. I would highly recommend him. ”

“Greg and his nurse are always courteous, friendly and efficient; also willing to answer any of my questions in a clear way that makes it easy to understand. I have found all of the staff, including those working in the reception area, to be especially courteous and helpful. ”

“While moving a machine I ruptured a disk in my lower back. My regular provider, Todd Carpenter took me through the appropriate stages of diagnostic care and I ended up with a referral to Lewiston Orthopaedics. Dr. Dietrich and the other PA's that handled my case were kind, respectful and professional. I followed the recovery directions and now am absolutely pain-free. Great bunch of people and great coffee in the waiting room!   ”

“Professional. Was not hurried. Felt like I was number ONE! Gave lots of info that was good to know. ”

“I really appreciate having a locally owned orthopedic practice that provides high-quality specialized care. What makes them different from other orthopedic practices is that each of their providers has a specialized area of the body they treat rather than a "do it all" approach. So if and when the need for surgery arises, you can be assured this doctor has the most experience performing your procedure. I want to go to the doctor who does the most of a particular type of surgery, not one that can "do it all" but doesn't perform as many. ”

“Dr. Hansen is the best doctor. I have been a patient of his for about 2 years. He listens and has great follow through. I have had problems with my shoulder for about 10 years and finally when I started seeing Dr. Hansen he found the problem performed surgery. Still have a way to go before perfect but so much better. ”
