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.

Great Experience
About two month ago Dr. Fricka performed a total knee replacement on my left knee. More than a year ago, a similar procedure was done on my right knee by another surgeon at a different clinic. My left knee feels and functions a lot better than right knee!! despite having significantly shorter recovery time. Dr. Fricka and his staff at Anderson Clinic have done a superb job throughout the long process from pre-surgery preparations to after surgery recovery period. They have provided all the necessary information and guidance for faster recovery. I highly recommend Anderson Clinic and Dr. Fricka to those who need joint treatments.

Outstanding Result
My procedure went extremely well and I am thankful I selected Dr. Fricka to do my partial knee replacement. Everything went as scheduled planned and my recovery is progressing very fast. The knee scare is almost invisible. I can’t say anything negative about my experience with Dr Fricka and the clinic and staff members. If you are on the fence about your procedure get an opinion from Dr Fricka. It was the best thing I did related to my knee. Thanks again Dr. Fricka

Awesome experience
My entire experience with Dr. Fricka and his team has been professional, courteous, on time and helpful. I received a partial knee replacement. I was walked through the steps, provided with exercises to complete both before and after surgery. All my question were answered to my satisfaction and I felt in very professional hands on the actual surgery day. From thr nurses, to the anesthesiologist to Dr Fricka and his team.I would highly recommend Dr. Fricka and The Anderdon Clinic.

Wonderful Experience
Dr.Fricka and his staff treated me like I was his only patient May 2024 when I had an knee replacement. His bedside manner and empathy made feel comfortable before surgery. August I will be having my right knee replaced and I'm confident Dr.Fricka will do amazing work once again. Even after surgery they catered to my needs no matter the issue using an app for all his patients to contact him directly. I will recommend Dr.Fricka and his staff to anyone who needs superior service.

Not Enough Good Things To Say
Positive experience from beginning to end. Attention to detail and concern for me as a patient. I definitely was not just a number. Early on after surgery I hand some concerns and Dr. Fricka was quick to respond which relieved any concerns I might have.

Best Knee Surgery Replacement ever!
Everything was on time; Dr. Fricka is a great surgeon. I had a revision, and it was the best surgery I had to have, this was my third knee surgery. The staff, pre-surgery and post, were the best. Everything from start to finish was exceptional!

I could not be more satisfied with the information, surgical outcome, and pre- and post-op care I received from Dr. Fricka and his team. I most strongly recommend him and Anderson Clinic to anyone needing knee replacement.

The Dr. Fricka and the entire staff were professio
The quick responses from Dr. Fricka and the Force Team is outstanding. In addition the Force Team's training-help-pre & postsurgical messages and inspirational update videos were extremely helpful during my recovery process. I truly sppreciate Dr. Fricka's very timely and informative responses to my cares and concerns.

care philosophy

I believe that patient care, patient education and patient-being, both in the hospital and at home after surgery, are important aspects in successful joint replacement surgery. I look forward to meeting with patients and helping them along their journey from surgery through recovery to an active lifestyle.
