    The staff are wonderful, especially Dr. Chan. I feel valued as a patient and would refer anyone to come here.

    Dr. Richard Lim is one of the finest Orthopedic Spine Surgeons in the Country, many surgeons did…read morenot want to operate on me because of the complicated nature of my case. I had a giant herniated disk with severe central canal stenosis along with complete effacement of the Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) around the nerve roots. Redundant nerve roots (RNRs) and the beginnings of Cauda Equina Syndrome and Arachnoiditis. I had terrifying pain in the hip, buttocks, groin and leg. Sound Complicated? That is because it was and the risk of surgery was high. Dr. Lim took on my case and performed an extremely successful Posterior Spinal Fusion with Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) using a Titanium artificial disk also known as a Intervertebral Cage and a facetectomy on L2/L3 with a very Complex Decompression of Cauda Equina and Bilateral L1/L2 nerve roots and Hip Bone Marrow Aspiration with an Allograft Bone Graft plus 2 Bilateral foraminotomies along with an annulotomy. This was all done using a 3D computer-assisted stereotactic navigation system. I mention all this to demonstrate why even world-renowned Neuro Surgeons declined to take my case. Right after surgery 100 percent of my pre-surgical pain in the hip, buttocks, groin and leg was gone. At 3 months out I was walking 3 miles and at 4 months I was hiking in the forest on hilly and challenging terrain and had a zero-pain score. Also, his P.A. Michael Meeker is fantastic as is the entire staff at Midwest Orthopedic Consultants. So if you need simpler or very complex Lumbar or Cervical Spine surgery, please contact Dr. Richard Lim. Also feel free to contact me at george.pastorino@gmail.com. 2 pre-surgery and 2 post surgery pics attached

    0 stars not available. I could make this a long story but I won't. Here is what you need to know…read more Dr. Lim did what was to be a simple surgery on my lower back. He left pieces inside of me and closed me up. Those pieces dug into my sciatic nerve for 7 1/2 weeks causing the most excruciating pain I have ever had in my life. He ran out of the surgery and jumped in his car so I couldn't ask him why I was in more pain when I woke up than when I went in. Then he wouldn't take any calls from me. Then when I was able to go to his office, he wouldn't come out of the back to talk to me. The front desk said they were told to tell me he was in meetings and was not going to see me. It took the CEO of Midwest Orthopedics to force him to meet with me. The arrogant, pompous ass that he is kept saying nothing was wrong even after new MRI's showed the debris and me screaming in pain. The surgeon from Rush who corrected the botched surgery took photos that he gave to me of what he had to remove that was digging into my sciatic nerve. He said he normally wouldn't do that but that I needed to save these for the attorneys. In all my life I have never met a worse doctor / surgeon. It's bad enough to ruin somebody's back but then to be so arrogant to never admit the mistake and get it fixed. Anybody who would let him cut into you would have to be insane. Find ANYBODY else!

    Dr. Stender is awesome. He really knows his stuff. I liked the way that he was prepared for me…read more Paperwork and x-rays first, so that when he came in, he knew in advance what was going on. He explained the slides and the action plan. He answered all my questions and gave thorough and knowledgeable explanations. This is a repeat visit for me with torn meniscus on my other knee now. I never thought twice of who I would go see for my knee. He cleared up my left knee 2 years ago, and I have every confidence that he will clear up the right knee. I did the round of P.T. and my chiropractor taking care of it, but with it not clearing up, the chiro finally said -- you need the Ortho now. I know I'm in good hands with Dr. Stender. He's kind, friendly, discerning, and professional.

    Everyone deserves to find their right Doctor, someone who will work with them and assist them as…read moreanother advocate for their overall well-being. I had really high hopes that this doctor would be different from all the rest based upon all the reviews and research that I had done. Sadly it wasn't the case. I found Dr. Stender to be arrogant, rude and condescending. I was already dealing with a lot of pain and I had come to him with high hopes...that was my mistake. He was more interested in bragging about himself rather than focusing on my concerns. It always seemed like he never looked at any of the reports or documents that I gave him because he always seemed to get defensive when I knew more about what was wrong with me than he did. Furthermore, every time I brought up a question or wanted a little bit more explanation, he would always respond like he was speaking to a child who didn't know any better. I always left with the feeling that I had done something wrong to justify this constant type of behavior. But in reality, that was just his approach to me. I thought I could stomach this a little longer in order to keep seeing an orthopedic doctor, but there should be no trade off when it comes to my h I hope that anyone who reads this, will think twice before setting up an appointment. I understand that it is hard finding the right doctor, but you have a choice. The doctor that you choose can either aide or hinder your recovery. For my recovery, I choose never to see this doctor again.
