Dr. Lindholm performed an amazing job on my ruptured quad tendon after the first surgery performed elsewhere failed. I recommend him to anyone needing knee surgery.

I have severe bone on bone arthritis in both knees and I had gone to another surgeon, who just stated that I had to lose weight to have the surgery, but really gave me no support or ideas and kind of blew me off. Enter Dr. Lindholm and his office staff, especially Leslie his surgical coordinator. He listened, really listened, to all my concerns, and gave me some excellent resources to help with my goal to have my first knee surgery. Several months later, he did my total knee replacement which went off without a hitch. Post op recovery at Hackensack Hospital was amazing, and the follow up care at Dr. Lindholm’s office was absolutely wonderful. My new knee is doing great-no pain-and I am walking without my cane now to increase my strength and balance. Have not done that in years! I am so glad that I found Dr. Lindholm and his staff- I am actually looking forward to having my second surgery. Thank you Dr. Lindholm, for seeing me not only as a patient, but as a person as well.

Dr. Jesse Allert is the BEST! I had a severely damaged/torn rotator cuff injury from a fall. Dr. Allert performed arthroscopic surgery on my shoulder six weeks ago and I am healing beautifully. He is a highly-skilled surgeon. The four small incisions in my shoulder from the surgery are almost healed and will be unnoticeable. My range of motion is improving daily and I anticipate full use and full strength in my shoulder within another 4 to 5 months. He is an excellent communicator and took his time to explain my condition to me in language I could understand. My wife and I have found him to be kind, humble, and genuinely caring during every interaction.
We trust him implicitely. We also found Leslie, his Surgical Coordinator, as well as his entire staff to be polite, professional and caring. Thank you Dr. Allert and team!!!

My whole life I have been dealing with many orthopedic issues including multiple hip replacements, knee replacement, knee surgery, toe and bunion surgery. My shoulder replacement surgery performed by Dr. Allert was the best surgical procedure I have ever had. He is an excellent surgeon who spends the time with the patient to make surgical experience easy, painless and successful. He is your best option for this type of surgery.

I highly recommend Dr Allert, I went for a second opinion he advised me not to have surgery. He took his time to explain why and show me diagrams and models. First I want to say I broke my shoulder 5 months ago and been going to physical therapy. I went because I was concerned if I had surgery I needed to take off at least 5 months from work. I was no longer in great pain and could raise my arm now. I felt i didn’t need surgery so I drove 2 hours to see him. His beside side matter are like no other doctor I have been too friendly, courteous and answered all my questions I had. . I’m so glad that a friend recommended him and I took that drive. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Since my first call to Dr. L’S office i’ve been treated with kindness, dignity and respect by all of the staff and the surgery the dr Preformed took my pain away immediately much to my relief! I feel lucky to have found dr lindholm and his staff, especially Mercedes who answered every question I ever threw her away and boy did I have a lot of them in the beginning.Now my leg is healed and I don’t think it would be if I did not come to Dr Lindholm and his team I’m so glad I did and I’d recommend them to my friends and family and anybody looking for an orthopedic surgeon.

I contacted Dr. Keller and Dr. Lindholm for a 2nd opinion as I knew of their excellent reputation from a past experience with them. I saw Dr. Lindholm immediately and he was and continues to be terrific. He took the time to explain what was going on in reviewing the x-rays then did the same after he ordered a CT scan. He diagnosed a fractured tibia below the knee replacement which was missed by the first Orthopedist. I am already feeling better after a week of non-weight bearing on the leg.
