I never got to see the Dr Eickman. Was told the time to be there and ended up sitting an hour cuz they give themselves an extra half hour . Mentioned that to Kelsey and she was a !!!! Then told by a nurse practioner that I won't get surgery cuz they wanted me to go through physical therpy and injections which I already did for years in Mpls. Went to my second opinion Dr Kim and he was great and made sure I am getting the best attention. Guess what going for second neck and back surgery. Never accept any advise but from a professional dr.

I recently suffered a shoulder injury and went in to see Katherine Carson (Nurse Practitioner). This whole process was smooth and effortless. Katherine has a team there that works incredibly well together. One of the things that stood out to me was that I wasn't spending time sitting around waiting for things to get done. Katherine saw me right away and at no time did I feel like she was trying to hurry up and get to the next patient. She made it very clear that she was invested in making sure I was getting the best quality care, while taking care of any concerns that I had. Katherine did great

Dr. Clayburgh removed a growth from my left hand. This is the second time that I had to have a growth removed from the same spot. The first time was another doctor, but it came back. The first doctor used both glue and stitches to close up the wound which itched the whole time and took longer to heal. I wasn’t a fan of the glue so I sought out someone would use stitches only. I’ll have to say, I made the right choice. The wound healed fast with no itching. He’s a true master of his craft. Well done Dr. Clayburgh.

Friendly staff and wonderful service. Dr Schall did ankle fusion surgery on me in Feb ‘18. The results were more than I could have expected. I drove all the way from the Twin Cities to Valley Bone Joint because of their reputation and surgical outcomes!! Grand Forks is blessed to have such a facility and physicians available to them!!

I had finally gotten in to see Dr Eickman 3 weeks after I was refereed out from my Primary Dr. Which I understand that he is very busy. Dr Eickman himself seemed very ready to help and gave me information on what my next steps with him where. I decided on injections and when I finally got a call from pain management which made me uncomfortable because of the many appointments they wanted with me. I called to check with Dr Eickmans office to see if its normal to wait 6 weeks for a checkup with PM and also had some questions. His nurse Kristy or Kristian would not listen to me and kept talking over

Dr. Clayburgh repaired my wrist over 10 years ago (2006) and saved me from losing 50% of my mobility which I am extremely grateful for. I frequently work with the providers and staff here and they are nothing but pleasant and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Last summer (2017) I had a nasty clavicle fracture and had excellent results with the treatment that I received from Dr David Schall. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and he is a skilled surgeon. Highly recommended.

It’s been nearly six months since I first saw Dr. Clayburgh for agonizing pain from a staph infection located in my finger. I’d been on IV antibiotics for more than four weeks under the direction from another clinic and wasn’t seeing improvement. After a month and that clinic’s recommendation that I start “finger therapy,” I decided it was time to find someone else to help.
I still recall my first appointment. It was a Friday afternoon, and the crew went out of their way to fit me into the schedule. Dr. Clayburgh listened to my symptoms, looked at the hand and said “I’m confident

I brought my mom to see Dr Schall and I have never felt so uncomfortable in a so called professional place. My mom has been there before but this was my first AND definitely my LAST time! The short blonde haired person that worked in Dr Shalls office was one of the most rude, unprofessional and snotty people I've ever met! I believe her name was Mashawn. She was even rude to the reception lady that was trying to ask her something for my mom. How unprofessional!!!!!!!!! There should NEVER be a person that rude, fakey & unprofessional in such a so called high profile specialty clinic. So, because
