Dr. Weikert is the best. I was so fortunate he was on call when I originally had to have total elbow replacement surgery in 2021. He is a professional who treats with compassion. In early 2024, in physical therapy on knee replacement surgery, the rod in the top of my arm separated from bone, he again did surgery. I am blessed to have him as my surgeon.

Dr. Weikert is the best hand surgeon around. He is personable and truly cares about his patience. I've known him for many years as both a private patient and as a case manager in the workers comp Arena.
