Orthopedic Associates (OA)

“I am extremely pleased with the lumbar back surgery that Dr. Giesler performed. Dr. Giesler is very thorough, and he had explained everything before and after the surgery. The pain running down my legs is gone. Can’t argue with good results.”

“Dr. Giesler was great. He did surgery for 2 herniated discs on March 3rd. By June 3rd, I was back to running 2 miles a day. I have my life back thanks to Dr. Giesler. PA Brian was also great every time I spoke to him.”

“Dr. Ian Wilkofsky is an outstanding doctor who truly cares about his patients. He is one of the best orthopedic surgeons in the United States and the state of Texas. Dr. Wilkofsky was very conservative with the treatment of my left knee. He first tried shots and then completed meniscus repair surgery before jumping in and doing a total knee replacement. I was so happy that he took this approach with fixing my left knee. I strongly recommend Dr. Wilkofsky for any orthopedic surgery, but especially knee replacement.”

“Dr. Heerwagen has done numerous surgeries on me and was very personable and professional. He’s highly skilled and extremely intelligent in his field. I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone who needs orthopedic care.”

“I had emergency lower back surgery completed by Dr. Brady Giesler. Dr. Giesler is one of the best surgeons in the state of Texas, and I am fortunate that he performed my back surgery. I had a follow-up appointment today with Dr. Giesler, and I am having no pain in my lower back, hips or legs. Dr. Giesler is such a caring and loving doctor that he has me doing physical therapy at home with the same therapist, who is helping me with the therapy for my right knee replacement. This is convenient for me and my family, and it will ensure that my lower back will continue to be strengthened.”

“Dr. Willenborg performed my foot surgery. I can’t say enough about him and his staff. Everything went well from start to finish. I’m still in my recovery stage and everything is going well. All the people at the office are so friendly and helpful.”

“Dr. Wilkofsky brought life back to my knee yesterday and both shoulders today with injections! As much as I’d like to do a cartwheel to celebrate, at 70, I’m smarter than that! However, in 2 weeks, I will be riding my mule in East Texas with friends to celebrate! Thanks to y’all for helping all of us!”

“I wanted to say thanks to Dr. Kent Dickson, M.D. and his assistant Kristy. From my initial appointment through follow up, they were outstanding. I was able to get an appointment when I wanted. There were no delays beyond those caused by covid protocols. Dr. Dickson quickly and accurately diagnosed my condition and fixed it during my appointment.”

“Dr. Cantrell is just superb! He is so thorough and always explains everything so well regarding my treatment. He also listens to me which I am so grateful for. I highly recommend him!!”

“I met with Dr. Aaron Schrayer. I was suffering with both shoulder and knee pain. He gave me two injections and within 4-5 days I had no pain. I do need to eventually have a knee replacement, but he has offered me a few different alternatives to help get through it until I am ready for the surgery. I trust him implicitly. He has really helped me. The staff are also very courteous and efficient.”

“Dr. Willenborg is one exceptional surgeon. Can’t give enough praise. Thank you for fixing my ankle and broken bone today. 5 stars!!”

“I was extremely pleased with the course of treatment by Dr. Singhal and his staff. He took the time to listen to my concerns and was very thorough in explaining my options. From preliminary visit to after surgery follow up, everything went well. I would definitely recommend Dr. Singhal.”

“I injured my knee in a fall and needed to see an orthopedic specialist quickly. I was able to get an appointment within 24 hours with Dr. Wilkofsky and was extremely pleased with my experience at Orthopedic Associates. The staff is very professional. They have sufficient front desk staff to get you checked in immediately upon arrival. I waited less than 5 minutes to be seen by the doctor. I’ve had two visits now and both were quick. I have been extremely pleased – highly recommend.”

“The 2 times I went, I couldn’t believe how fast I was in and out, with exceptional care. Dr. Evanich was professional, courteous and informative very caring doctor. Staff was all knowing, the whole place seemed to work like clockwork. Would definitely recommend them!”

“Dr. Cantrell is one of the most caring doctors I’ve ever had in my life. He’s very thorough and communicates very clearly. He’s got an equally wonderful staff. I’m very grateful he’s practicing in our area.”

“What a Wonderful visit! The team was ready for me 2 minutes before the posted time. The team knew exactly what I was there for and remembered everything from my last visit over 5 months ago. I was in and out of the office in less than 10 minutes.”

“Everyone was pleasant and polite. Dr. Giesler took time to explain and answer questions. Left me with a great sense of confidence. Pat Cooper (PT) also took time to best analyze my symptoms and prescribe the best exercises for me. I feel better than I have in 1 1/2 years and now almost pain free. These guys are the best.”

“Everyone from the person who answers the phone to the doctor (Cantrell is my doctor) himself make my appointments wonderful. The office is very professional, caring and you do not feel like a “number”. Thank you for being the best at what you do and how you treat people.”

“Dr. McElroy, his nurse Gene & on-site team are a credit to his profession! To have bedside charisma & cutting-edge surgery skills is too often a choice between the two as a patient. Dr McElroy CARES about his patient’s pain & will not rest until the patient is comfortable. This team went above & beyond to get me in for surgery in a moment’s notice…the entire process was seamless on my end because of his team’s hard work. I pray I will never-ever be in that much pain again, but if I am (or anyone I know is), Dr McElroy is my go-to!”

“Thank you, Dr. Evanich, Eric, and Tammy for taking such wonderful care of my mom! Your team expedited the surgery process and because of that, my mom did not have to suffer in pain from her fractured hip for very long. She is now on the road to recovery and I know she will do great, thanks to you. Five star treatment from the very best!”

“The doctors here-specifically Dr. Schrayer and Dr. Wilkofsky are amazing! Not only are they extremely knowledgeable but take the time to listen! Highly recommend any doctor at Orthopedic Associates!!”

“I am totally impressed with the entire staff. Recently had surgery with Dr. Heerwagen and everything went like clock work. I have no complaints what so ever. He is one of the best surgeons I’ve ever met. He, like his entire Team, cares about their patients and their welfare.”

“Dr. Dickson performed a carpal tunnel release for me. He and his staff were at all times inquiring as to any questions and concerns that I may have had, and thoroughly prepared me as to what I could expect in what time frame. His relaxed demeanor help me to relax as well. He updated my family member immediately after the procedure.”

“I had a full knee replacement with Dr. Evanich. The process is amazing, with pre-surgery education, surgery in the morning and home in the afternoon. Follow up physical therapy and check-ins. I was amazingly well cared for and Dr. Evanich has given me my life, and mobility, back.”

“Great first time visit with Dr Lai, everything went very well and everyone from checkout to medical assistant were helpful, friendly and professional. Loved that Dr Lai didn’t rush the appointment and answered all my questions.”
