The care of Doctor Panek and his care team was exceptional. He explained all of my options and was extremely patient. When I decided to have surgery they recommended the Excel program. The surgery and post surgery care was excellent. The physical therapy I received from TCO was also excellent. I have now had partial hip and total knee surgery from Doctor Panek. The results have been excellent and the recovery has been much better than I expected.

Dr. Panek is an excellent surgeon. My knee replacement went even better than expected. I was off pain pills (Hydorcodone) in four days, and was driving after 10 days. Now at the six week point I am walking and exercising without pain. I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Panek to anyone considering knee replacement surgery.

Within the last year, I have recommended Dr. Panek to at least four friends who needed knee replacements, and have raved about my superb experience with him and his team for mine. He is knowledgeable, experienced, conscientious, personable, and an excellent surgeon. He inspired my confidence and trust and I would not hesitate to use him again if my other knee required replacement. He is a perfectionist and made sure to choose the correct device for my situation and sized it perfectly. I have absolutely no knee pain and a remarkably good return to normal function. Dr. Panek gave me back my active lifestyle of XC skiing and road bicycling!

It is rare to find a doctor who is not only an excellent surgeon, but also a great listener. I have seen many doctors and have never met one like Dr. Panek. He listens to patients and takes the time to explain in plain English, not doctor speak, the possible causes and recommended courses of treatment for your problem. Dr. Panek has performed three joint replacement surgeries for me and I experienced quick rehabs and great results for all three. I recommended him to friends and they were all all amazed as I regarding his skills.
