I had a total right hip replacement on 01/12/2022 by Dr. Randy Mohler. The staff was great, but I wanted to state the results. The day of surgery after I was discharged, I used a walker. There was no pain. I didn't need the narcotic pain medication, but used Tylenol and naproxen. I did laundry and the dishes. The day following surgery (Day2) and day 3, I had bruising and a little swelling, but no pain. Day 2, I used the walker and the cane 50% each although sometimes not using anything. Day3, I used the a walking cane 90 percent of the time. Ten percent of the time I used the walker or just nothing. Day 4, no pain and I walked two miles using the cane and drove my car with no problem (and this was the right hip replaced). Day 5, I had some swelling and walked just over a mile and iced the swelling. Day 6, I did not use any device to walk and walked a little over 2 miles. Day 7 same as day six. Day 8 I walked 5 miles with no pain the whole time. It is now day 9, and I feel great. I am retired but work part time and am ready to work now. I didn't need any help the whole time. I started sleeping on my right side on day 7, or more accurately night 7 and it felt fine. I have been shocked how easy this recovery has been even though I was optimistic. I plan to not take any more Tylenol and naproxen starting today. I plan to start using my elliptical machine and stationary bike today as my hip has been feeling stronger each day. I had the anterior hip replacement meaning they did the entry from the front although really half way between front and side, about where your pockets are on your pants. There is no pain at that area, and I have been shocked that I have had no trauma (if that's the right word) to that area. I don't even notice it, except for a little swelling on day 2 and 3. I feel so much better than prior to surgery and I don't limp like before surgery. I plan on getting my left hip replaced as soon as they can schedule it as that hip has the same problem as my right. My goal is to get back to playing tennis 3 weeks after my left hip replacement, and to eliminate my limp. The limp caused by my right hip is gone completely and it was bad. I still have a less noticeable limp due to my left hip which I hope to have replaced by February 2022.

I want to share my experiences having bilateral hip replacements performed by Dr. Mohler. Both surgeries went very well including my recovery. I found Dr. Mohler to be a very knowledgeable, attentive and caring physician. He has been able to spend the needed time at pre and post surgery visits in answering all my questions. I also have been very grateful with Dr. Mohler's medical assistant, Cecy M, who has consistently been courteous and helpful on the phone and at my visits with him.

I was a victim of referred pain. My spine was damaged, but the pain was in in my shoulder, arm and wrist. It was constant! I could not sleep well, lean over or lift anything, and advil 600's were not helping. I was directed to the CalOrtho Physical Therapy group for treatment. I was seen by Kristy, and she patiently reviewed my case, made recommendations, and determined the best exercises. After following her instructions about head placement on my pillow, I experienced my first decent nights sleep in months. I highly recommend Kristy and CalOrtho!

Dear Dr. Quinn,

I cannot thank you enough for the amazing care I received at California Orthopedic Physical Therapy. Kayleigh and her team are the ultimate care staff: skilled, caring, professional and intuitive. From day one they listened carefully to everything I told them and provided me with a therapy plan that delivered results immediately. Thanks to them I am in no pain and have resumed my teaching schedule, keeping up with thirds graders all day. I am forever grateful!

I am in extreme pain. I just made my initial appointment to be seen by Dr. Schultz. My referral was phoned to me this morning by my PCP. I phoned this office 2 hours later fully expecting to be told my referral had not arrived yet.

Rachel took my call. I told her my referral had been faxed. She looked and no she did not have it. Then I heard her tell me "Please hold on and let me check the computer." She came back on the line "I found it." I was shocked at her looking for the referral and finding it. When I complemented her she said "I try to treat my patients the way I would want to be treated." What?

Her attitude is so refreshing and sadly missing in the medical field today. Between my wife and I, over the last 8 years we have been referred to so many Doctors who have an appointment desk that cannot find referrals - even when they have one. Making patients wait is the norm.

My appreciation for the caring help Rachel provided is beyond my ability to express. She is priceless, most definitely not compensated enough, and a asset to this medical organization.

Recently finished left hip replacement by Dr. Mohler on3/02/21, and had a right hip replacement in May 2013 from a different doctor in Palm Desert. My view is that Dr. Mohler is great on two counts. First, he listens and engages at exactly the right level for each patient before the operation. Second, the short term outcome (just nine days so far) of the anterior procedure with custom hip for me has been great (I can think of dental procedures I'd avoid compared to this one). It was an outpatient procedure; pain is minimal; exercise options with or without help is great; I'm driving and on my own in seven days after some outpatient help from family. The techs and all staff were great in all regards. djp

From the moment I started to make an appointment with Dr. Mohler to working with Altia , she got me in soon as she could and he was very personable, caring and didn't make me feel like I was believed about my injury. Front staff was very nice when checking in and I appreciated the sensitivity and care they took with Covid and temperature checking.

Thank you Dr.Mohler and staff

Dear Ms. Barton,

I would like to provide you with some feedback on the quality of care which I have been receiving from Kayleigh Marsolini following my recent shoulder surgery. In short, the care and service has been outstanding. Kayleigh's personal attention to detail and innate ability to encourage me to perform my daily tasks has been the reason why my success, strength, and range of motion have recovered so quickly.

Kayleigh's focus on my well being has been the main reason my progress has been so successful. Please pass on that she has done a great job and continues to provide outstanding care.

Many thanks.

Good Day. I can't tell you how wonderful it was to show up for an MRI appointment this week and meet Kevin Rainey, the MRI Technologist, and Maribel Cardenas, the receptionist. Kevin, wearing a Kansas City Chiefs sweater, scarf and cap, stood before KC balloons and a helmet. Maribel was at the computer. Both were smiling as they welcomed me to their world. The very first person you meet in any organization - be it a CEO or janitor - sets the tone for how one feels about that organization. We are all in the customer service business. Kevin and Maribel represent the best of California Orthopedics. And one other thing - don't take down the paintings by Kevin's friend (Chris "Mempinman" Mempin) that hang on the wall. It's a great art gallery. Thanks for employing people like Kevin and Maribel, as well as Francesca in PT and Dr. Jeffrey Schultz.

I had a shoulder and bicep surgery in October with Dr. Tradonsky. My surgery was work related and therefore my care was handled under work comp. Going into the surgery I was confident it would go well. I was, however, concerned about the PT due to less than stellar performances in the past with other surgeries and subsequent PT under similar circumstances. My last PT experience was sub par at best and the thought of managing appointments with a therapist(s) who went through the motions and who didn't understand/care about my need and desire to get strong and healthy was a big concern this time around. To say I was worrying for nothing is an understatement.

I was seen by Kayleigh and what a rock-star. She was professional yet personable and perhaps because she is an athlete she understood my injury and my drive to get strong at a reasonable rate. Kayleigh listened when things didn't feel right but didn't back off, just chose something more manageable. I had a few cranky days and she kept it light and easy without judgement, again professional, efficient yet personal. Kayleigh clearly recognized that my frustrations were a part of the process and kept it all in perspective. I can't sing her praises high enough and although I have shared my gratitude and appreciation with her personally, I thought I'd share with you as well.

Additionally, I should note while I was receiving TX I paid attention to the entire staff (therapists and interns) and how they interacted with one another - it was refreshing. The staff genuinely seem to like and respect one another and they all create a great environment... So thank you for that.

Oddly enough, scheduling and interacting with the front staff was never easy or friendly BUT I can assure you once I walked into a session, I felt great leaving. You guys are doing it right.

Thank you- I have already referred others to your practice.

The experience I had at California Orthopedic Institute couldn't have been better. The first orthopedic Dr. I was referred to did not inspire confidence so I asked for another referral and was sent to this clinic. My appt. was made with Dr. Cutuk, he explained my problem and showed me on the MRI and with knee model what had happened in my knee and immediately I felt at ease and trusted his diagnosis and treatment. I had surgery last week in the surgery center and the experience was caring and efficient. Dr. Cutuk put me at ease with his relaxed confidence and so far my post op as been almost pain free and hardly used the crutches. I look forward to the physical therapy and getting back to my active lifestyle. I would highly recommend Dr. Cutuk and this center to anyone who needs orthopedic treatment and/or surgery.

Wow what a great staff and doctor, all the way from the front desk check in to the xray technician! After a cycling accident on July 4th, I woke up in the hospital with a broken collarbone. Although an orthopaedic doctor checked in on me the next day, I had my primary care physician refer me to Dr. Schultz. I had seen Dr. Schultz a few years before and after a referral to PT, my shoulder was back to normal, so I knew he was an exceptional surgeon and doctor. My clavicle frature surgery was on July 25th and from the pre-op visits to the post op follow up visits, the entire experience has been positive and professional. My surgery was very successful and I am back to cycling and paddle boarding activities after 9 weeks post op. I was very anxious about having surgery and the staff and doctors made it a very calming experience. I highly recommend Dr. Schultz and the entire staff at California Orthopaedic Institute. Thank you Dr. Schultz for going above and beyond in answering all my questions and reassuring me through the entire process.

There are no words to accurately express my deep appreciation for Dr. Quinn and Jackie! They are a dynamic healing team for me. They are both caring and totally efficient. Dr. Quinn is not only an indescribable doctor. He is compassionate and understanding in every way. He never gave up on me even though my foot injury has been difficult for me, persisting over 2 yrs now. He looked reassuringly at me and gave me hope & patience for the future. Yesterday I experienced 3 hours of a normal painless right foot-this was huge for me; in fact magnificent!!!! In essence they are blessings from Jehovah God. Dr. Quinn & Jackie are the best on earth and they will have my unmatched heartfelt gratitude for the rest of my life!

I was deeply impressed with the professionalism of this organization. Dr. Schultz was amazing as well as all of the staff I came into contact. I highly recommend them

I finished three months of physical therapy at the end of March and meant to write a note right away and the time just got away from me. It has a habit of doing that! Regardless of a month having gone by, I'd still like to thank everyone for their great care and work, especially Eden, Shane, and all the young people who work so hard and who were so encouraging and helpful. The three months at California Orthopedic Physical Therapy made a huge difference in my life and I can't thank all of you enough! I feel like a new person and I'm very grateful for the hard work and dedication that is shown to all.
