Dr. Olmsted gave a very detailed description of the situation with my daughter's elbow. His care team and the office were very accommodating of our request for an MRI and getting us in to see Dr. Olmsted quickly. I also loved the method of communication.

I was in a bike accident in 2006 and fractured my elbow and the ulna was split like a piece of wood. I was taken to the Emergency Room at Burnsville Ridges hospital by ambulance and fortunately for me, Dr. Olmstead was on duty. He did an excellent job repairing the fracture and elbow (3 hours of surgery) and removing the plate and screws six months later. My daughter also fractured her elbow in a bike accident about 2 years later and again we sought him out as the surgeon. He also did an excellent job with her. Steve is very meticulous and a perfectionist in his surgery. I would highly recommend him
