Patient Reviews

Dr. Eggert is the most caring doctor I’ve ever encountered. He makes himself available to you. He calls you before and after surgery. He has a great team that really care about you too. They made sure I got the equipment I needed and the therapy I needed. However, you’re not just passed off after surgery is over. He follows up with you to see how you’re doing and he wanted to know what I thought they could have done better. I couldn’t think of a single thing. I had my knee replaced and I couldn’t have robotic because I have too many other mobility issues. I was concerned that my healing would be affected, However, I had nothing to worry about. Dr Eggert performed a perfect surgery for me. He not only replaced my knee, but he made my leg straight too. I couldn’t be happier. My Physical Therapists are amazed at how well my knee has healed. It hasn’t even been three months yet and I’m doing so well. Thank you Dr Eggert. I’ll. be getting my second one done soon!

He broke down my knee revision procedure like a well-designed play. I left appointment with all questions regarding revision answered and a great plan moving forward! Game on!

Everything about this TKR process has been great. The facilities at OSI are extremely nice and Dr. Eggert and his staff are exceptional. The follow-up by Dr. Eggert has been very much appreciated. The daily text messages really helped me maintain my motivation – by keeping me informed of weekly goals and exercises. It’s now been seven weeks since my surgery and my knee is almost back to normal! Thank you!

I gave a 10 rating/ exceptional service! Dr Eggert and his team have been the best surgery experience I have had. I was surprised when I received several follow up calls from Dr Eggert and his team. I was in a lot of pain but I felt better knowing that my recovery was being followed by Dr Eggert and his team. I especially appreciated the daily texts of encouragement and exercise messages. There were also texts to encourage me during my recovery. I really enjoy speaking to Dr Eggert. He and his team listened to what I had to say! Best Doctor I have ever had!
