TJ Ridley, MD 5601 96th Avenue North, Brooklyn Park, MN 55443

"I had a phenomenal experience working with Dr. Ridley and his team from start to finish. From the beginning, I felt that Dr. Ridley truly cared for me as his patient. He walked me through the procedure he recommended but I never felt pressured. I’m so thankful I took his advice to move forward with the surgery. I no longer have any pain in my left knee that had bothered me for the past couple years. 7 weeks post surgery I’m back to my long walks and Peloton workouts with no soreness the next day."

"I found myself in a bit of a predicament this past summer after a water skiing incident that resulted in a leg injury. Knowing that something was wrong after the incident, I went into TCO’s Urgent Care where, after an MRI, it was determined that I had a complete tear of one of my hamstring tendons from my ischial tuberosity, which would require immediate surgery to repair. Being an active mom of young children with a demanding job, I had no idea what to expect in terms of surgery, physical restrictions, recovery, and what the longterm implications of my injury would have on my family and my job. After meeting with Dr. Ridley, I was comforted in knowing his plans for surgery, restrictions at various stages of recovery, and rehabilitation. Dr. Ridley communicated his plan to me thoroughly in a sympathetic manner while at the same time, letting me know that recovery from this surgery wouldn’t be easy. I would find out quickly after surgery that Dr. Ridley setting realistic expectations for my recovery was imperative for my mental health as I was (mostly) prepared for the long/slow recovery process. During all stages of recovery, Dr. Ridley and his team were available to quickly answer any questions or concerns that arose. I will forever be grateful for Dr. Ridley’s and his team’s dedication and support in helping me get my pre-injury life back. Although I really hope to never tear my hamstring again (or have any similar injury), if I do, I will certainly be seeing Dr. Ridley and his team once again."

"Answered all my questions on moving forward with my upcoming 2nd knee replacement. Personally followed up on preoperative visits and was able to pull strings to get the surgery and insurance handled promptly."

"A completely arrogant jerk who won't accept that He did something wrong and instead blames his patients for it even was childish enough to try to get Me in trouble with my other doctor when I had to go to the ER . After he told me that I had no restrictions and everything was fine. That same night there was another fracture because he did not put on a long enough plate in my collar bone. He wouldn't see me, he wouldnt help me, he just blamed me. Now I have to go in a start this all over again because he was to rushed to care even a little bit. Absolutly would NOT LET HIM DO YOUR SURGERY!! Btw Dr. Ridley, rememeber when you told me you were a good doctor because my collarbone didnt rebrake? Well it did and you told me it was scar tissue!!! What the hell kind if doctor is that??"

"I would recommend Dr. Ridley and his team to all my family and friends. The care and concern I received before, during, and after my hip surgery was amazing. The pain management they provided me with helped to aid in my healing and recovery. Everything from insurance approvals to connecting with people to set up cooling devices for after surgery was taken care of for me. There was always someone available to me if I needed to reach out with questions. All in all, a great experience!"
