IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine - IU Health Southern Indiana Physicians

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was considerate and kind from Dr. Surdam to the office staff. Only do better is scheduling for appointments as I had to wait 45 minutes in the exam room for Dr. Surdam. No fault of his as scheduling does not allow the appropriate amount of time in between patients.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Brandon Hood did an amazing job. I had full knee replacement on both knees one year ago. By following his pre-op and post-op instructions, and with his amazing skills, I was able to complete physical therapy in two weeks. My pt was amazed. Pain free and mobile for the first time in 20+ years. He has also operated on two friends of ours with similar results. I highly recommend Dr Hood to anyone with chronic knee pain or mobility issues.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Dr Lindner for eight months now for my right shoulder. I had rotator cuff surgery on it and every month he has had me come back to check on me to make sure everything is doing good and healing like it should. I’m having some problems with it and he is staying on top of it. I’ve never had a doctor do this he is an amazing doctor, person and is good at what he does. He is the best and so is his nurse practitioner. She is so amazing also

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Licini and Andrew Lovell, PA are an amazing team and they provide stellar care to their patients. I had a TKR in October and they were my care team and I am doing amazing and have had no issues or problems. I recommend them to all of my friends, family, and co-workers. You would be hard pressed to find two other providers that have the skill, compassion, and bed side manner equal to them. I couldn't be happier with my care, treatment, and TKR. They gave me my life back. I am forever grateful.

Experiencia fantástica: They are very good here. I was taken care of and they listened to what I had to say.

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Dr Surdam and his team. My pre surgical questions were always answered with kindness and concern. The surgical team was amazing.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Hood was fantastic Highly recommend him to anyone for hip replacement

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve worked with Dr. John Surdam over the last 13 years with both knees and both hips replaced. He is AMAZING!! Tremendous personality and always takes whatever time I need to answer my questions and making sure I have all the information I need. His team is equally amazing. Always incredibly professional and friendly. And I have to give a shout out to the Physical Therapy crew. They ROCK!! Knowing how to push you in just the way you need without being overbearing. With Dr. Surdam and his team you are not just a patient or an insurance number, you are a person. If you ever need any orthopedic services. I cannot recommend Dr. Surdam highly enough. AMAZING!!

Experiencia fantástica: They were certainly attentive Tommy sin, and they did an amazing job explaining thi gs to me and my family. My son was at ease the whole appointment

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Dukes is great! Thanks for your help. Should be back at full strength soon.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Brandon Hood and his entire staff, pre-op, post-op, surgical center, did an excellent job for my total hip replacement. I knew exactly what to expect before, during and after. Recovery was amazing, walking comfortably in less than 2 weeks. Very little pain and incision sight healed well and quickly. Highly recommend Dr Hood for your hip or knee concerns!

Experiencia fantástica: Very clen center and very polite, friendly people was very quick to get me in for my appointment and took care of me quickly the doctor and all his staff were very polite and helpful I would highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Everhart and nurses were of the highest quality.

Experiencia fantástica: I’m very pleased with my knee surgery. It’s been one year today since my surgery, and my knee feels great! I highly recommend Dr Hood and IU Health if you’re thinking of having knee replacement surgery.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Surdam performed my total knee replacement. I would highly recommend Dr. Surdam and the entire IU health orthopedic and sports medicine staff. After 3 months my knee feels great and have scheduled my other knee replacement for next fall with the same team.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Brandon Hood performed both of my knee replacements, but for three years before that, he monitored the progression of disease in my knees, encouraging me to wait as long as possible because of my age. Dr. Hood was always transparent about the damage to my knees and the treatment, as well as the pros and cons of having my knees replaced in my 50s. If not for his care and incredible surgical skill, I wouldn’t have recovered as magnificently as I did—having both knees replaced in three months and walking “normally” within weeks after surgery. And, my scars are straight and almost undetectable. Dr. Hood is simply the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Smithers is awesome. He listens to my problems and always answers my questions. He is very easy going and provides good adviice and solutions. The staff is very nice. I highly recommend going to Dr Smithers

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Surdam is the best. He has performed knee replacement on both my knees. Right one is 12 years old and going strong. Left 3 years and doing great. Thank you so much, Dr.Surdam. I appreciate you so much.

Experiencia fantástica: Had surgery by a previous surgeon which was so messed up. Dr Everhart corrected the issue and fixed my hip. More than pleased with the staff. 5 stars across the board.

Experiencia fantástica: This was my first time at this office. I was impressed with the efficiency of the staff, while being personable. I was seen by the scanning staff and then by the PA quickly. I was given an explanation of the diagnosis and options for treatment. The nurse brought in supplies for treatment and explained exactly what to expect. Todd Nisley agreed to listen to me tell him a short story during the procedure as I felt it would distract me from being nervous. I will definitely recommend this practice to others.

Experiencia fantástica: I was right in & almost right out. My appt was professional & results were as expected. Nurses were kind as was the Dr. Scheduling was easy for my next visit.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! Had both of my knees replaced. Pain free now!! I would recommend Dr Surdam 100 percent!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a hip replacement by Dr. Hood. The preparation, procedure, and follow through were all excellent. At three months I have full use with no discomfort. Thanks to Eddie Getts for great PT. The entire team was great.

Experiencia fantástica: My first appointments with the nurse practitioner and physician’s assistant were thorough and helpful. When hip replacement surgery was ultimately scheduled, I met with Dr.Surdam who explained the procedure carefully and left no questions unanswered. The wait time for surgery was thankfully short — just two and a half weeks. From arrival at IU Health Hospital Bloomington to the pre-surgery procedures to the actual hip replacement, I had an A+ experience. Thanks to Dr. Surdam’s surgical expertise, my hip has healed beautifully. I recently celebrated the three-month anniversary follow-up appointment with Dr. Surdam. I am immensely grateful for his notable kindness, caring and compassion. Thank you, Dr. Surdam and the wonderful staff at Orthopedics & Sports Medicine on E. Creeks Edge Drive.

Experiencia fantástica: I had totally hip replacement performed by Dr Hood things could not have gone any better, after 3 months I'm walking three and a half miles a day and very few things I can't do. Dr Hood and staff gave me my life back. I wish I could given Dr Hood more than five stars. Anyone thinking about having hip replacement surgery need to contact Dr Hood

Experiencia fantástica: This is an excellent place for rehab and recovery! I have been treated with dignity and respect, and everyone is so friendly. They answer all questions I have, and even some I didn’t have!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Surdam did my total knee replacement. I am so very happy with the care and excellent results I received. Thank you, Dr. Surdam, and all your staff for a pain-free knee. I will not hesitate to return to Dr. Surdam for any future orthopedic and joint needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Encouraging. Very confident in getting what I needed. When other health care places dropped the ball these beautiful people help me through it all.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent surgical care from Dr. Surdam, PA Nathan Baynes, and Physical Therapists Eddie Getts and Taylor Millsap for total hip replacement.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Jennifer Trpkovski, DO has excellent communication with patients. Staff is very knowledgable, efficient and patient while answering questions.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent and thoughtful care from Dr. Trpkopski. She asked a lot of questions and listened attentively to my responses. Furthermore, She carefully explained her findings and my course of treatment!

Experiencia fantástica: Had total replacement of both knees by Dr. Surdam. Very good experience, both knees doing very well. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I went into Dr. Surdan with a knee that had a lifetime of damage from a birth defect. He not only fixed all of it by giving me a whole new knee but a whole new life. He was wonderful to work with and great personality. I strongly recommend him to anyone getting a knee replacement.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is always very friendly and you aren’t waiting forever to be seen once you get there. I love them there

Experiencia fantástica: Much gratitude for the excellent work and care by Drs. Surdam and Licini, PA Nate Baynes and the nursing and PT teams. I could not have imagined a better outcome for my hip replacement surgery. It feels completely natural and I’m once again moving actively and pain-free. It feels like the clock has been turned back 15 years. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Received right treatments, and sound advice!

Experiencia fantástica: Extremely good experience for IU health standards. If other areas of IUH were this nice, there’s never be another complaint about them.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr lucini and Dr Andrew is really good doctors they're great doctors the nurses are wonderful there too

Experiencia fantástica: Alexa and her team went out of their way to provide extremely compassionate care when I really needed it. Each team member was empathetic, took time to explain my options, consequence of each option, and they were gentile and thorough throughout my care. When my schedule went sideways (no cause of theirs, I was injured at work and am from out of state), the team reached out to their manager Alexa, on her time off, and gave her a detailed account of my situation and my frustration. Alexa called me until she finally got ahold of me, after my care from them was over, just to be sure I would get the care I needed and that I had a clear path foreword. Then when I called back for Workman's Comp help, the dedicated WC woman helped facilitate care I need back home. I can't express enough how impressed I am with this group!

Experiencia fantástica: Referred here for knee issues. Within an hour I had x-rays done, a professional consultation, a shot, discharge instructions, and medication called in. Although the doctor provided me with an unpleasant diagnosis, he was professional, provided me with current and future options, and answered all my questions and concerns. I feel at ease knowing that this facility and its personnel, who were professional and kind, are here to aid me in my current and future issues.

Experiencia fantástica: I came in on a late Friday morning after the urgent care on 3rd and the student health center said their X-ray technicians weren’t in. Well Now was booked for 4 to 5 hours. I really didn’t want to go to the ER unless I had to. But this location agreed to see me, even though I was in for a potentially broken tailbone and they don’t always deal in lower back issues. Receptionist was wonderful. I was taken back less than half an hour after I arrived despite the place being super busy. The nurse and radiologists were very kind. I was given a pillow to sit on because of my tailbone :) Dr. Latimer listened to all my questions and addressed all my concerns without making me feel ignorant (As a student/very young adult, there’s plenty of people in the medical field who don’t listen to me and talk down to me.) I headed back home within an hour of my arrival.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been here for several things including two complex surgeries by Dr. Wickstrom. I love the time that is take to fid out what is gung on. The PA's Todd and William are awesome and the physical therapy person, Lori was also very good. Very pleased.

Experiencia fantástica: I had the best experience at the walk-in clinic here. The staff is courteous and speedy. I've never been to a walk-in clinic where I was able to be serviced so fast without an appointment. I truly appreciated it!

Experiencia fantástica: I was well-informed given several options and I felt very confident and the choices I had and they were very easy to talk to

Experiencia fantástica: I usually find myself here at least once a year. I'm very accident prone. Sprains, stress fractures, breaks, bulging discs. I'm a hot mess over here. Dr. LaGrange is so nice and so is his nursing staff. They are always on time for appointments. He always listens to my concerns and my objections and gives me options on treatment and education about my condition. He's one of the best doctor's I've seen, I recommend him to all my friends.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing, caring staff from start to finish. Extremely hard working and a safe haven when comes to health and safety in the community; even during this pandemic. Thank You all so very much for every bit of help, support and encouragement!!!‍⚕️‍⚕️ P.S. Be there to get this cast off Monday !!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome spot for my physical therapy needs. Super clean facility and friendly staff. Was able to get in quickly and have used Ryan Taylor, he was able to get me back on track. If you go here you will be in good hands!

Experiencia fantástica: My PA Angela White was thorough and had great bedside manner. You could tell she really cared about me as an individual.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr.Licini is a great surgeon and helped me get back to a normal life with a left knee replacement. The staff and nurses are great and have nothing but respect for all of them. They have helped walk me through every step of the process and couldn't be more great ful!

Experiencia fantástica: Saw a PA today (Kelly) for my broken finger. She was very nice and professional. The nurse was also professional and very understanding. Would highly recommend IU Ortho!
