Dr. Knutson took the time to talk to me about all that he knew about my problem. He is always personable and never judgmental. When ever I need orthopedic care or advice, he is the only one I consider. I trust him explicitly .

He is very knowledgeable, caring of his patients. He always listens and answers any questions you may have

Doctor Knutson performed shoulder surgery on me. I am still recovering but doing well. I have regained most of my range of motion and strength. He has seen me with other problems but this was my first surgery by him. I feel he has done an outstanding job and I would highly recommend him for any ailment that has been refereed to an orthopedic doctor to be looked at. I appreciate his calm and caring personality and his humor. He truly has the best "bedside manner" as they say of any doctor I have ever seen and I am 50 years young lol and have had other surgeries and many doctor visits over the years. I live over 1.5 hours away from his practice and it has been worth the extra miles to be taken care of by an real professional. Thank you again Doc Knutson and also the great staff at The Center For Orthopedic Excellence.

Excellent. I was seeing another doctor who refused to submit the gel injections for my knee issues to my insurance for fear they wouldn't pay. Nor, would he do surgery to repair my torn meniscus. Dr. Knutson mentioned scoping my knee right away, scheduled it, and later on, had the gel injections ready at a recent visit.

Always great

Professional

Just had rotator cuff surgery in February. If you need any type of shoulder surgery or other orthopedic care Dr. Knutson is your guy. He also has a great bedside manner to help make you feel at ease.

Another Thing that is really irking me is a receptionist says oh you have a number of issues so the Doctor will not agree see you. Are there not Privacy Regulations that protect me from people I do not know viewing and discussing my records with me? Maybe it was his PA? Nurse? Well three people at least I have spoken to at his office. All quite officious. I know my issues. I wanted to see him for a fairly minor knee issue. An issue nevertheless. Would be easier to get to see Christian Barnard in Heaven. Dr. Knutsen do re-think your policy.

I have been a patient of Dr Knutson for a long time, he has always been very professional and takes the time to explain his diagnosis and plan of care to get you back at a prior level of functioning.
