Was very good at giving me a visualization of what my injury looked like back in May when we decided to have the surgery. He’d’ve been a good teacher.
This is our families 3rd surgery using Dr Petsche and we wouldn’t go to anyone else! My husband had his rotator cuff repaired and it works better than ever. My son had his elbow repaired and he is now his high school starting quarterback! My husband just had his other rotator cuff repaired and we are confident it heal just like the other one!! Dr Petsche and his team are truly amazing!!
He was amazing. Very attentive to my needs and just made me relaxed. I would recommend h 100%
Very professional and knowledgeable. I can’t wait to work more with him to correct the issues I’ve been having.
He and the staff did a great job for me.
I appreciate his advice and attention to my knee situation
Terrific doctor. I had an issue with lack of motion after a knee replacement, Dr. Petsche was able to assess the problem, explain the next step and was kind and reassuring through the whole process.
Very warm and professional. Took time to check my mobility limits and recommended a stepped program to getting relief from pain and follow ups to achieve it. So very nice to meet him and work with him
Very nice doctor. Extremely helpful in explaining my next steps along with what will be involved.
Took a full knee replacement diagnosis from another doctor and turned it around to shaving my meniscus. Im walking better and have less pain just 1 day after. I would 💯 recommend Dr Petsche and the fox valley orthopedics. Everyone was sincerely great.
