My 8 year old Son broke his pinky finger over the weekend and I called first thing Monday morning just seeing what the chances were of getting in and they were kind enough to get us in within 2 hours of my phone call!!!

Wanted A second opinion on an injury, got me in the very next day. The new office on the north location is beautiful.

Dr. Machado just fixed my thumb injured 56 years ago. He explains well and I am thrilled.

Every step of the process was handled very well. I was well informed and well taken care of. The Nurses I encountered were very good at what they had to do, and they were able to make sure my wife and I were informed and comfortable. Thank you for that

Nice to meet Dr Machado

He very good at his job and has a wonderful personality. This is my second visit, so yes I would recommend him to others.

I don’t remember much, but my husband said he explained things very well

very professional and thorough

Awesome!

This was the best experience I’ve had in a medical office in YEARS! Friendly staff and extremely knowledgeable! The PA was very knowledgeable and professional with a funny bedside manner. I felt so confident in his diagnosis that I said I didn’t even need to see the doctor. He told me the doctor needs to see me because I was a new patient. The doctor was amazing! Kind and very good at explaining what is happening and what my options were. It was a surprise to me to have had such a pleasant experience in a medical office. That doesn’t happen very often in these days and times. I highly recommend this practice!

Very professional and helpful.

He is awesome. Such great bedside manners. Feel comfortable with him as my doctor.

Dr. Machado was very kind, helpful, and informative. When he saw my daughter’s x-ray he immediately grabbed his partner for a second opinion. We appreciated his expertise and knowledge he shared with us.

Pleasant doc!

Dr. Machado is an amazing doctor. My husband had a terrible work accident on his hand. He did an amazing job on his surgery. We drive from Omaha to Lincoln because we love how attentive and nice he is. I highly recommend him again we don't mind the 45min drive.

Very efficient

Outstanding care and great attention to detail.

Excellent surgeon. Did my hand and wrist. No more pain and very little scaring

Top notch! Heck of a surgeon!!

Good initial visit Straight and to the point

Did not get a reminder call for the appointment. If they did call, no message was left. I forgot about the appointment since it was made a month ago.

Quick,thourogh and very professional

He told me to wear a brace for 6 weeks! Nothing was mentioned regarding restoration of the use of my fractured left wrist. At this point, I don't see any reason to return to see him if I'm only to wear a "brace" to recover. My wrist and fingers are continuing to stay swollen. The brace is not too tight to cause swelling. My wrist is still painful. I'm not able to use my left hand or fingers. I was told I fractured my wrist. Is this how a broken wrist is to correctly heal?

Dr Machado is a great surgeon! He listens and treats you with respect

He is a great doctor, very good nature,he really makes you feel like he really cares about you

He was short but told me what he was going to do.

Always attentive and professional.

Simply the best-

Dr Machado was very professional and informative.

Great doctor, professional, knowledgeable, thorough and great bedside manner.

Very Nice Person

Dr. Machado is one of the most sincere, caring & skilled doctors that I have ever worked with! After a terrible injury to my left wrist & arm I was given a very bleak prognosis for ever using it again! After surgery & 6 months of care with Dr. Machado I have 100% use of fingers, hand, wrist & arm with NO restrictions. There is a metal implant inside. I consider this somewhat of a miracle & a definite “work of art “!

Wonderful people! Caring and thorough and just a great experience!

I wish I'd have met him years ago!! Amazing!

Very knowledgeable and caring. Took time to provide information pre and post surgery.

Dr. Machado is excellent and repaired my wrist that was badly broken. He is very precise in everything he does. Would definitely recommend.

Dr. Machado is always very nice, and reassuring. I felt my facial surgery was in very capable hands. I hope I won't be needing his services again, but if I do, I won't hesitate to turn to Dr. Machado.

A very skilled, thoughtful, and caring surgeon. I appreciated his time and understanding before and after surgery. He answered all my questions.

Dr. Machado is the best hand specialist in the country, as far as I am concerned. I am delighted that I can play golf again now that I am no longer in pain!

Great experience with Dr. Machado. Very professional and polite.

Excellent surgeon with a great bed side manner. Always spends the time to explain your problem and what can be done.

Was not able to have appointment as scheduled as appointments were running 30-45minutes behind and had issues at the front desk checking in regarding my co-pay.

He's just a great all around human being.

Kind - Courteous Very Knowledgeable

very fast and excellent service

Dr Machado is amazing. He is caring polite down to earth. He is the best hand surgeon in Lincoln Nebraska.

Dr. Machado spent the proper amount of time with questions and options for future treatment.

I'm so pleased by the level of care I received from Dr. Machado and the entire staff at Prairie Orthopaedic & Plastic Surgery. After crushing the bones in my wrist I was concerned that I would never have full use of it, however, six months later, I'm so grateful to report that it is healed and fully functional!

Muchas gracias demostró ser un profesional

Dr. Machado is a relaxing, friendly surgeon!!

Dr Machado explained my fracture in detail and told my why he didn’t recommend surgery. That’s rare for a surgeon to not jump to surgery right away. I’m confident in his treatment and knowledge

First time visit. Very kind and extremely knowledgeable. Happy I went.

Very complete on what needs to be done.

I can’t thank him and his staff enough. Not only did they do a fantastic job fixing my broken arm, he is a true gem and so is the staff . ????

He very good doctor

Absolutely cannot recommend Machado enough. This was my first surgery and one with a lot of uncertainty when it came to end result. I had pages of questions about my surgery and what to expect and he took time out of his busy schedule to sit down with me and answer my questions. Machado always did his best to let me know what was going on and I knew he had my best interest in mind. In the end, he exceeded expectation and completely changed my life for the better.

Fantastic bedside manor, very respectful, great at explaining everything simply but thoroughly to ensure I understood his recommendations and steps needed to correct issues.

Dr. Machado and the entire staff are the best. I have the utmost confidence in all that they do.

Dr Machado is one of the best Drs my husband has ever had. He always does his best to help him with all of his questions and concerns.
