Patient Reviews
Mar 28, 2023
Dr. Wetter was very personable and showed the utmost concern for my knee situation. He was very thorough in explaining the 3 different scenarios available to me. I fully trusted his opinions and recommendations. I am now 1 year out from a total knee replacement and am back 100% to my normal activities. I continue doing strengthening and stretching exercises twice daily that allow me perfect mobility. I know for certain that the exercises that he recommended before and after surgery contributed immensely to my very successful recovery. He is a very knowledgeable and skilled surgeon and I highly recommend him! Deborah in Champlin, MN March 2023
