I was very disappointed about my visit with Dr Hansen yesterday. He had walked into my room and said 2 sentences about my condition and started leaving the room. I had asked 3-4 questions about my condition for which he felt like he’s burdened and just provided short answers and left. All through out my appointment, he was in a hurry, I was not sure if he’s behind on the day! I felt like I wasted my time and money by visiting Dr Hansen.

Just excellent care and truly outstanding surgery. I was walking without a cane in 2 days and very little post-op pain. Thank you TCO Team and especially Dr. Hansen who explained the procedure in layman's terms, and proved a true master in his field. If you are having hip pain and need a replacement Dr. Hansen is who to see. No need to go across the mountains as the very best is at TCO.

Everyone was wonderful I can’t say a bad thing at all. The care I received was phenomenal. Kimberly, Melissa, Brody and Susan took great care of me. Even the anesthesiologist checked on me when I was walking the hallways and asked how I was doing. I have never had this level of care before thank you, thank you, thank you.

I would recommend Dr. Hansen to anyone! I had hip pain for years. After waiting to be scheduled for surgery EVERYTHING went as planned. The personnel in his office are amazing. Lourdes Hospital staff is so kind and accommodating. I am home with little or no pain and tomorrow with be the start of my second week since surgery! Dr. Hansen is the leader of a fantastic team.
