Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Ignored my concerns, causing me to become disabled
Was being treated for tendonitis when my symptoms spread to my legs. When I raised my concerns, he got frustrated with me and told me I was being impatient and to continue with my physical therapy.Years later it was revealed I had a rare disorder that could have been caught if he investigated the symptoms spreading to my legs, and further damage could be prevented if he was willing to listen to my concerns. Instead the damage is now permanent and I will never be the same again.

My husband and I had our first visit today.
We both were impressed with his knowledge, he explained our issues carefully and presented options we understood. We are very impressed and pleased our family doctor, Dr. Grunwald referred us to Dr. Connor.

Absolutely the worst experience ever. I will never go back to this clinic. I was referred and everyone seemed depression and grumpy. Bad day, I don't know. The front desk people were not nice, the person rooming me was in a rush and the doctor conner did not explain anything to me and seemed bothered I was there. Do not go here.

I fell while traveling out of town and waited until I returned to see a doctor when I learned I had a mild fracture instead of a sprained ankle. The ThedaCare Orthopedic Care front desk staff, Ty (trainer) and Dr. Connor were great with answering all my questions and helping me learn the proper way to use crutches since I ordered them online with curbside delivery from a local retail store while I was out of town and I had them set up incorrectly. Looking forward to my follow up visit and getting out of this boot!

Dr. Connor is an excellent physician. He is on time, kind and knowledgeable. He explains things well, presents all options and then allows the patient to help determine the course of action (if appropriate). I recommend him highly.

Went to him for broken ankle after a fall. He misdiagnosed me (said sprain or small fracture vs. broken piece unattached, torn ligament and floating cartilage.) Had to do physical therapy with a broken bone and torn ligament! Pain got worse. Refused to order MRI. Had to find another Dr. because he refused to investigate the lack of progress and increasing pain. New Dr. ordered MRI immediately and performed 71 min. of reconstructive surgery on 3 sides of my foot! His wrong diagnosis, wrong treatment ordered and refusal to do appropriate MRI let to 10 months to recover from my accident vs. 5 months!

My son saw Dr. Connor for a sports-related injury today. We were both very satisfied with the visit. Dr. Connor was kind, respectful, and tried to accommodate us as much as possible. He seemed quite knowledgeable and willing to explain condition and what our options were. He answered all of our questions. Overall, this was a very positive experience for us.

Went in for both a knee and shoulder injury. He explained my options. I was able to have both injected. The experience was professional, and he was genuinely caring and nice. He did a wonderful job and the injections were spot on and little to no pain.

Horrible bedside manner but this clinic is horrible, he injected my knee and it was way worse than Dr. Miller. All the docs leave here. Crappy hosp and clinic.

I love to teach. It's great to see new learners and providers in training at the clinic, but I think my most important students are the patients themselves. In treating all types of sports-related conditions, my goal is to have you leave your appointment...read more
