Very professional, patient with my questions and explained the extent of my injury and the process needed to get back to full health.
Every part of this appointment was exemplary, the entire staff very professional, Dr. Merrill bedside manner “best I have ever had” he showed concern and explained everything in detail. The M.A. and P.A also very professional the P.A explained those procedure in detail and made sure I was comfortable before beginning.
Very informative I was very nervous to get injection but she made me feel relaxed and pain free.
I was seen quickly, my questions were answered in detail and a future plan of treatment was worked out with an understanding of next steps. All Of the staff were awesome!
Went to see Doctor Merrill for shoulder surgery. Took x-rays MRI. Discussed it with him said he wasn't sure if he can fix my shoulder. Sent me to physical therapy. It's been a year now. Haven't heard from them. Would never recommend him ever now.I have to go to a different doctor wasted all my time and money
Joseph was very thorough in his assessment of my injury and helpful in suggesting a care pan. I was nervous about getting a steroid shot in my shoulder but, he did a really great job seeing my mind at ease.
All staff friendly, helpful, and professional. And my knee pain is reduced! Planning replacement in New Year. Thank you
Explained everything very well and in terms I understood. Took time to go over everything and did not rush.
Joe was very nice, informative and very professional in his office visit. Thank you

I am so thankful for your professional knowledge and answers to my issues. I highly recommend you Joseph and Tri City Orthopedics

I had a very good visit with Joseph Webb. What a kind and caring man!!! It was a pleasure to meet him for the first time. He is very attentive to your aches and pains!! I will definitely see him again!! I highly recommend!!
Dr Merle’s was very helpful. I feel very comfortable with the course of action he recommended. I look forward to continuing to work with him and his team.

Doctors are great and so is the staff. The did what they could to avoid surgery but the end I needed to do it and they made it easy and helpful. Only place to go.
Tri-city orthopedic has been the only facility to treat and do work on both of my knees. They are professional, kind and caring. I consider them to be a very important part of my medical family.
I was very pleased with the service that I received at TCO. I was happy that you were able to see me even though I was from Arizona. I am back home now and seeing the orthopedic doctor here and starting physical therapy. Thank you so much.
The entire staff I dealt with were all so curious and helpful. The Doctor was very informative and comfortable to chat.
Professional, personable, knowledgeable, and always very good to his patients. Cheri just scheduled her second knee surgery!
The dr and front was very professional. Kudos to everyone. Thankyou for helping me yesterday
The care provider's are professional, well informed, a pleasure to be with. Dr. Nelsen is very personable extremely caring about my needs. Just the BEST experience I've had in a Doctor's office in years. Looking forward to my next appointment.
Was greeted immediately by reception staff and checked in. Very friendly. Again met with Joe to discuss my MRI on my knee. Joe is very thorough and knowledgeable about my situation. He answered all my questions and addressed the process. Very happy with TCO!
Very very nice doctor, good listener and empathetic. Precise with explanations and capable to assemble data and records in short time . Determined and secure on actions to take . Very grateful to her for having solved my case just in one appointment and addressed sequentially for the best.
My pain was different than previous visits so you sent me to the spine doctor to see about a pinched nerve, I saw him today 10/23 and he is sending me for an MRI lots of muscle inflammation and he does think I have pinched nerves Now just wait for the MRI
As always a good experience and thorough coverage of options. Now noodling on the options.
Great guy..I think he’d just come from surgery I almost didn’t recognize him with his cute little OR hat on..lol
Joe Webb is absolutely the best.. caring, compassionate. will go above and beyond to take care of needs.
Was very pleased with Tri-city Orthopedic. From setting up appointment to checking in. All handled professionally and quickly. Joe Webb was great. Made me feel very comfortable right away. Very knowledgeable.
In and out quickly with all the information I needed. Very pleasant cordial visit.
The place is quite clean, spacious and orderly. The doctor and the medical assistant were both very friendly and understood their trade.
I was treated promptly and professionally. Everyone was very kind and gracious
Provided excellent care and service!! Injection given was well placed and effective at multiple visits. I highly recommend his care. I have received excellent care at several providers in this group.
Fantastic experience. Let me list the high points. 1. Got in without getting referred by my dr. I love self referral. 😀 2. Had an appt the very next day that worked for me. 3. Got seen by a friendly professional who didn't rush. 4. Got medication that was very affordable that has made a huge impact already. I ❤ tri city orthopedic.
