I had a very bad fall and shattered my ankle and lower leg bones. I required an extensive 12 hours of surgeries. I really appreciate Dr. Dodson expertise and support through the past 2 years. I am proud of my decision to select Praire orthopedic and Dr. Dodson. He is a very easy going and straight to the point. He always explained everything where I understood what was happening in the surgeries and throught my recovery. I enjoyed our conversations during our follow ups and he shows clearly that he cares about his patients. Respectfully Arturo

Stephanie is a joy to work with! She works hard to make recovery easy to understand and is always looking out for her patients. I recommend her to assist you in recovery and know that you will enjoy her positive attitude and support. I always got positive feedback and support from Stephanie and she gave me good directions when I was doing an exercise incorrectly. I didn’t ever feel uncomfortable or that I was being given too much to do, and feel that my recovery has gone smoothly due to Stephanie’s guidance.

Every time I have been there, everyone in the office has treated me kindly and respectfully. Dr. Machado is warm and welcoming. He takes his time patiently answering your questions in depth and discusses the relative merits of the options available to you. He doesn’t make you feel pressured to choose a specific course of action, but rather he gives you as much time as you need to make a decision or even come back again to request additional information or clarification. He is obviously very knowledgeable but despite his level of expertise he never makes you feel like you should exclusively be listening to what he has to say. He listens to you every bit as much. He is a remarkable person. Very down to earth, especially for a surgeon!

Dr. Hurlbut is a very skilled surgeon. About 10 years ago, he put my left arm back together where I have full use of it. Now, recently, he replaced my right shoulder and fixed my humerus. He thinks I’ll have the use of my shoulder again. I would recommend him to others.

Dr. Machado is amazing, amazing work and amazing person! I would give him 10 stars if I could. My son was in a horrible motorcycle accident and in the roll of accident his helmet was ripped off. He sustained lots of facial lacerations very severe head laceration in which lost a a good chunk of skin and tissue down to skull. Dr. Machado has done 2 surgeries to repair head, the difference is amazing. As for the face lacerations he spent a long time on stitching them up and they have healed amazingly, scaring hardly noticeable. If he does this well with a trauma, I can only imagine how wonderful his planned surgeries go. He was so caring and informative to all of our questions. He is making sure he has the best outcome with future surgeries. I would say he is the best surgeon you could go to for your surgery needs. Thank you Dr. Machado

I broke my right big toe on a Saturday and called their North Lincoln location on a Monday morning, about 2 months ago. Dr. Ternent took me in the same afternoon. Her nurses were very caring. Dr. Ternent was simply awesome. She has excellent knowledge, is cool and kind. She checked everything and gave ample time for questions. Did x-rays and follow-up appointments. Today was my last appointment with her and my toe has healed well. At the doctor's office, the wait times were very reasonable and short. It was all excellent. From my experience, the impression I got of Dr. Ternent was that she is very hardworking and respectful of her patients and her work. I hope I do not have to(LOL) but if the need arises, I will surely, definitely, absolutely be going back there. 100% recommend. :)

Dr. Hurlbut knew from one 15 minute visit something was up and ordered an MRI right away. Eventually had to have surgery which went great. The physical therapy team here is the BEST I have encountered (having been to several physical therapists offices.) Only criticism is I have waited in the waiting room for an hour on Mondays. Won't be going to any other orthopedic office in town. EDIT: While in physical therapy for my shoulder, I was continually have neck and elbow pain and hand tingling. I told the team about this and Dr. Hurlbut saw me, had my move in several directions and ordered a neck MRI. Found I had another major issue and sent me to a spinal team which resulted in surgery. I am thankful Dr. Hurlbut knew what to do in this instance and didn't even question a second MRI. Again, will not be going to any other ortho. EDIT: I recently broke my ankle (it's been a year, let me tell ya) and saw Dr. Krejci-Reed. She preformed surgery which is healing up nicely and she has been so helpful! I have never felt rushed, she's answered all my questions and been very personable. Again, again, will not be going to any other ortho.

Dr Machado is a very loving and kind physician. He explains everything very clearly, happy to answer questions and often offers up some helpful insight or medical information about my condition. I have felt very peaceful having him be my surgeon because he’s smart confident and truly cares about my wellbeing. Dr Machado is one of the best!!!

John is very thoughtful and careful to make sure I'm comfortable while doing PT because I have some other limitations that certain things will make those more painful. He's incredibly knowledgeable and able to explain things in an easy to understand manner. Including my diagnosis and the exercise directions. He's compassionate and takes an interest in me beyond what my ailment is. I felt better within a few weeks. I am very appreciative that John did not overwhelm me with too many exercises. I think he knew if he gave me too many I most likely wouldn't do them very often. My PT exercise program is very doable and I actually do it unlike other PT programs I've been to that have given me way too many exercises. I highly recommend John and have already recommended him to other people. Thank you John!

I’m currently using Prairie following major shoulder surgery. Rehabbing after surgery and physical therapy can be difficult, but I really enjoy my experience and Julie has been amazing at pushing me but also taking great care of me and always being fun to be with. I’m new to Lincoln but have had multiple rehab and PT stints elsewhere for both knees and I can say with complete sincerity that my experience with Prairie has been by far my best experience and I can thank Julie & the whole team there enough for what they do.

Seven weeks with Carol and I could not be happier. She is first, an exceptionally wonderful person and second a first rate PT and care provider. I feel increasing better and stronger after each and every session. She builds confidence in my ability to fully recover and a trust to pull it off. Her manner is more of a friend, yet always the professional. We have found many things in common and find great relaxation in our common goal. My recovery. Her knowledge is clearly exceptional, allowing her to adapt to any circumstance. River, the therapy dog just adds to the overall pleasant surroundings and family like atmosphere. Carol keeps me on track yet allows me to move a bit on my own. However, I know she watches and evaluates my progress always.

It’s always a helpful, upbeat, positive and informative appointment with Dr Byington. I have so much confidence in his decisions and plan for the treatment that I seek from him at Prairie Orthopaedic. For several years I’ve highly recommended him to others who need orthopaedic care, especially knees and shoulders. Before Dr Byington returned to his hometown of Lincoln and joined the Prairie Orthopaedic clinic, I had gone to several other doctors for knee pain. After my very first appointment with Dr Byington several years ago I knew that I’d never need to go elsewhere. He gives plenty of time and care to each patient, never in a rush. It feels like family when going to this clinic instead of feeling like just being another name.

Patients can tell when a provider is listening and when they value your experience, what you’re feeling and how it’s affecting your life. Dr Krejci-reed does this effortlessly. Stumbling upon her after experiencing a Dr whom made my injury worse by simply not listening- I almost cried from relief after my first visit. Not only did she address the injury, assure me that I should not have been treated in that manner by the previous dr but she has gonebat with workers comp to ensure any issues were resolved. This included a lot of extra time, paperwork, even appointments. There was never a time I felt like a burden due to workers comps extra requests. I can’t say enough good things about her throughout my injury and surgery I had no doubt she had my best interests in the forefront. For me- the most valuable quality she displays as a Dr is her confidence in her craft and her manner of being both no nonsense & complete confidence in her craft but it is relayed with humility and compassi’

This was my last appointment for a follow up on my Achilles tendon surgery. It was performed back in February 2024, it went very well with no complications. Do what the doctor tells you, and I highly recommend getting a variety of compression socks with different tightness to use through the healing process. It greatly enhances healing of the scar tissue because you’re helping blood flow to the area. I highly recommend Dr Krejci and listen to what she says to do, you can ask her, I was always ahead in my healing process because of her recommendation of compression socks, I still wear them today.

I've been going to prairie orthopedic for as long as I've been having issues with my joints. Every person there is willing to learn about my condition which is considered a rare condition. It's very hard to find anyone who is well versed in this condition anywhere in Nebraska. So it was very affirming to me that she was willing to continue doing additional research into my condition so she can best help me.

As a first time patient, I was extremely impressed with everyone I encountered. The front desk staff were welcoming and efficient, and the assistant, Ashley, was incredibly kind and jovial. Kudos! Regarding my appointment with Dr. Byington, I was equally impressed. Dr. Byington was affable, an excellent listener, and extremely thorough in his assessment of my shoulder pain. He didn’t just look at my MRI, he conducted a thorough physical examination, which, is important! As someone whom has undergone a wide variety of surgeries, I think it’s incredibly important for doctors to conduct physical examinations and listen to the patient. In other words, treat the patient—not the scan. Dr. Byington did just that, which led me to feel confident to be under his care. As a future physician assistant, I had an outstanding first appointment/impression, and have no doubt he’ll do an excellent job performing my rotator cuff surgery. Thank you Dr. Byington and staff!

I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Hurlbut . After a devastating car accident that left my shoulder in ruins, I was uncertain if I could ever practice as a chiropractor again. However, Dr. Hurlbut not only restored my shoulder but also salvaged my career. From the moment I met Dr. Hurlbut, I was struck by his professionalism and genuine concern for my well-being. He took the time to thoroughly explain the extent of my injuries and the proposed treatment plan, instilling in me a sense of confidence and hope during a frightening time. Throughout the surgical process and subsequent recovery, Dr. Hurlbut exhibited unparalleled expertise and skill. His precision in repairing my shoulder exceeded all expectations, and his attentiveness to my progress was unwavering. Thanks to Dr. Hurlbut's exceptional care, I have not only regained full function of my shoulder but have also returned to my practice with renewed vigor. His dedication to his patients is truly commendable, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of orthopedic care.

The receptionist was extremely professional and very helpful. Of course, I found out before I was invited back by the nurse that, she's the spouse of a current veteran. Loved that. Anyway, the nurse Courtney was absolutely fantastic. Nice, pleasant, courteous, professional, fun to be with, and an absolute joy to be with. The PA? HE was also fantastic. Turns out the PA is the veteran and currently a captain in Army Reserve. And his wife is the receptionist. Great visit. HE was beyond extremely helpful and new exactly what he was doing. Kind of reminded me of my dentist, who I absolutely love. Very, very knowledgeable. Dr. Machado, what can I say. Extremely thorough!!!! He has a new technique that I'm curious about. After I told him about my past experience, he was already on it and all over it. I told him, I was not happy with my former doctor who did my past surgery. And, he was in Lincoln too. Dr. Gove. (That's all I'm going to say about that.) I'm very, very excited to see what Dr. Machado can do for me. For what it's worth, my primary care doctor suggested him. DR. Rachael Blake.

Dr Hurlbut is outstanding! He took the time to explain the procedure and showed me a sample of the product being used. very professional. Lots of places over the same procedure. The only thing that separates them from everyone else is the customer service they provide. I’ve been in customer service for 40 years and I absolutely believe that these folks care about me and my quality of life. I’ve tried other Orthopedic places and the customer service there was sub par they seem to care more about volume than me as an individual. Dr Hurlbut and his team of professionals are exactly what that industry needs. Thank you, Prairie Orthopedic.

Keli is able to figure out what is causing pain and how to minimize it. After a knee replacement, the back of my knee hurt and the knee exercises weren’t helping. She encouraged me to do back exercises connected with the sciatic nerve and they made a difference; I was able to sleep again. My knee replacement was my first major surgery and she could explain the big picture unlike me focusing on the daily pain. Her calm attitude helped me know I could get through this when I was overwhelmed.

I called for a second opinion and they got me in the next day. I broke my tibia, and the doctor I first went to was a total joke, so I found Dr Byington online based on the reviews and I was not disappointed. He prevented the x-ray tech from having me turn my leg (which would have hurt, but I did it at the other "Dr" so I didn't think anything of it) so he didnt let the tech do that and said it would be painful, so he cares about the patient, but the main thing I noticed from that interaction, is the way he talked to the tech, explained why she shouldn't do that, what to do instead, and it was educational, not snapping at her or being rude or condescending towards her, which Dr's sometimes are. Then, after the x-rays, they were going to take me back to a room, and the wheelchair I had didn't have foot rests for some reason (probably was mixed up with the suite across the hall) so the Dr held my leg and walked bent over, backwards down the hall to get to the room. Then he did the cast, got me a prescription for better pain meds, set up a follow up appointment for 3 weeks, and made the whole experience as enjoyable as a broken leg can be I think.

I started having knee pain out of the blue. After getting an MRI I found out I had a swollen hoffas pad and the patella was pushing on it, aggravating the meniscus. He discussed procedures and gave me the option of trying cortisone shots first. The first one worked so well it lasted 7 months! I may still have a procedure done to reduce the hoffas pad so it doesn’t swell. He is great at explaining options and procedures and has a great personality and sense of humor!

Dr. Machado performed his skillful surgery in February with great results! I saw him at routine intervals so he could check my healing process and I was discharged from his care yesterday (08/10/2023). I will miss seeing him and his staff, who also seem very caring! I highly recommend him should you need carpal tunnel repair or a procedure that requires skillful hands to fix a wrist that was damaged from a fall, which was complex. He seems to enjoy and take great pleasure in seeing his patients succeed from therapy and determination to do well after his surgery!!

I followed his instructions and kept all appointments. He is conservative in his surgical approach and very meticulous. He will discuss your before and after x-rays in great detail and answer all questions, as well as suggesting at-home exercises and other measures of self-care. He was always pleasant and patient.

Dr. Dotson recently performed my foot surgery. From the initial consultation to post-op care, he has exhibited professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my well-being. Since my surgery, last Thursday, he has monitored my progress, answering all my questions and addressing any of my concerns along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Dotson to anyone in need of orthopedic surgery. I must also acknowledge the exceptional team at Prairie Orthopedic, from the friendly reception/administrative staff, to the dedicated nursing staff, they ensured my overall experience was amazing. Special shoutout to Cassie for everything she did for me. She truly went above and beyond! I greatly appreciate the entire team at Prairie Orthopedic. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My husband had a terrible accident that involved his little finger on his hand. The finger was practically mutilated. Dr Gustavo Machado miraculously was able to put a couple screws in and a pin and it healed up to where my husband can bend it and use like he used to before the accident. We are so thankful for Dr Machado! Dr Machado was very good about sitting down with my husband and I before the surgery and explaining what he was going to be doing. He answered all of our questions beforehand and told us what to expect after surgery and the days following. My husband and I would most definitely recommend Dr Machado and his staff to anyone that has broken some bones.

Dr. Hurlbut and Lygia his PA have been a phenomenal team to work with. After not being able to find the care I wanted in my local area and not available in a timely manner, I turned to them and received the best care possible. They were able to help me the same week I called following an injury and took the time to work through my problems. Dr. Hurlbut gave me time to try and heal on my own, and when I did not heal as needed, he advised surgery and made that a great experience and outcome too. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Hurlbut and his PAs! Wonderful orthopedic practice and providers!

I cannot recommend John enough. He is easily the best PT I've worked with. He's knowledgeable, compassionate, and really takes the time to help me improve my health. John is incredibly respectful in terms of making sure hand placement during evaluations is ok and not causing pain. The exercises he recommends are definitely challenging but not so challenging, so soon that the regimen is unrealistic. He takes the time to explain exercises and why pain/distinction night be occurring in language that makes sense to me, a non-medical professional. John also gets bonus points because he's a great person to talk to about fun things between exercises, has great taste in music, and is very personable!

I don't know why I require so much fixing up, but a 2010 motorcycle accident didn't help. Dr. Hurlbut has performed surgery on a number of locations on me, from shoulders to fingertips. The fear this last time was that a shoulder replacement would be necessary rather than another rotator cuff repair. Turns out that there was just enough of the tendons left to facilitate the repair. The idea was that this time there would be a bovine implant included to help the healing process. Currently being 76 years old, the recuperation process is slower yet, but nine months in, it appears that my recovery is over 60%. This is already better than a replacement. Skilled work and good advice, yet again, from Dr. Hurlbut.

I am grateful for Dr. Hurlbut and his staff, especially my physical therapist, Erica Heiman. The injury caused to my finger by a hedge trimmer accident was traumatic for me, but I was immediately reassured that all would be fine when I met with Dr. Hurlbut. His willingness to take time with me and explain the damage that was done and the surgical repair required was so helpful. He and Erica were always just a phone call or a text message away when I had questions or concerns and their timely responses were extraordinary - to say the least. I have never witnessed such genuine compassion, care and concern from health care staff as I did with them. My finger is not 100% functional, but I am fortunate to still have my finger and to have it functioning as well as it is. This is due to Dr. Hurlbut and Erica. Praise be to God for them!

I had the best experience ever when it came to patient care. Starting out, the building is very clean and professional-looking. The front desk staff were very accomodating and helpful as I was a brand new patient at their practice. They got me in last minute since I was leaving town the next day. This office is very efficient and smooth when it comes to paperwork, and setting up your patient portal. I was first seen by the PA Lygia, who was very friendly and knowledgable. They took an xray on site and had results within minutes (with medical assistant Kate). Dr. Hurlbut was very attentive, thorough, and descriptive when he examined and diagnosed my shoulder injury. Unfortunately my diagnosis calls for surgery, but Dr. Hurlbut and his staff discussed with me multiple options that would work for me. I highly recommend coming here for any orthopaedic issues.

Keli is an amazing physical therapist! She is so knowledgeable, professional, and kind. She played a key role in my successful rehab on my knees, hip, and back. I appreciated how Keli would demonstrate the exercises for me and if I needed something modified, she would show me! I love her hands-on approach. The BEST thing about Keli is her personality!!! Even when I was in pain during therapy, she had a tendency to make me laugh, which diverted my thoughts of the pain! Keli has this charisma about her that people want to be around her! That is why all her patients love her!

Kevin is one of the best physical therapists I've been to! He's incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and a very wonderful person. It's been an absolute pleasure to be able to have him as my PT and if I need any physical therapy in the future, I will definitely be going back to him! Side note: He used to work at the South location, that's where I first started working with him. I hadn't been in for a couple of weeks and when I had returned, learned that he had transferred over to the new North location. The south location asked which location I wanted to go; if I wanted to go to the North location to continue working with Kevin or to stay at the South location and work with another therapist. I chose to stay with Kevin because I enjoyed working with him so much and loved how knowledgeable he is, that I didn't care how far I had to travel as long as I still got to be under his care. He's definitely worth it! Thank you, Kevin!! You've helped my shoulder feel so much better!

Super blessed!! Dr. Dodson is truly one of a kind. He is super kind, caring, compassionate, fun, thorough with his explanations, and a great Dr!! He just did surgery on my 12-year-old daughter‘s foot and I can’t say enough good things about our experience so far. I look forward to updating this review after she is healed in a few months. In fact, every single one of his staff members have been so kind and caring too. So thankful that we found this practice and these physicians! I spoke to him personally more than I did his staff which is very rare in today’s world. Normally, you rarely talk to the doctor and always his staff. Dr. Dodson called me multiple times before surgery, including the day before…we were very scared for the procedure and the entire process. My daughter’s surgery was on a Wednesday afternoon and on Friday night at 5:30 pm he called to check on her before the long weekend❤️🙏. So very pleased and I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the other wonderful people that I now know by name! Chad, Courtney, Cassie, and truly everyone else!! Also super thankful for Dr. Machado who took care of my son’s wrist which is how we found this group of physicians in the first place! We will never go anywhere else for orthopedic medicine!

After my visit not only had Dr. Krejci validated my concerns, she did what she could in the office to relieve my pain and worked hard to come up with a treatment plan to achieve continued improvement.

Andrew went in yesterday thinking he might get a cast put on his broken hand but the day took a turn when we found out he needed surgery. Dr Hurlbut was amazing and we could not have asked for a better result to a stressful day. We are very thankful for you Dr Hurlbut and your staff at the clinic and at Lincoln surgical.

I have been patient of Dr. Byington for the last 7 years. He has been the only orthopedic physician to stabilize and correct my chronic shoulder instabilities. I travel 2 hours round trip for my appointments and he is worth it. I have had multiple orthopedic surgeons and I have had multiple surgeries-9 to be exact. His surgery on my shoulder has been the most successful out of all of them. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I was an emergency surgery patient for Dr Byington, I was so unsure of his skills. I fractured my femur and hip. I was in extreme pain. He not only put me at ease he put me back together. I thought I was not going to be able to walk, he had put me in physical therapy and has seen me throughout my healing.. You are truly a remarkable doctor and professional that I come to respect and trust! Thank You, your staff and the physical therapist Kevin. That is truly what great "Teamwork" is really about.

I broke my wrist (both bones) and had to have surgery. Dr. Machado and his staff were absolutely amazing. I cold called him based on a referral from a friend after the surgeon affiliated with my local hospital didn't get my surgery scheduled in a timely manner. Dr. Machado got me in right away and scheduled my surgery less than 48 hours after my first consult. He squeezed me into his already full calendar to make sure I was taken care of promptly. I did PT at his office for several months as well - great experience. I highly recommend Dr. Machado and his staff. Friendly. Knowledgeable. Good bedside manner. I couldn't have asked for a better care team.

I agree one thousand percent with each of these five star reviews from others. Prior to Dr Matthew Byington joining the Prairie Orthopaedic clinic I had been a patient of numerous orthopedic doctors at other Lincoln clinics, but often not 100% satisfied. Then several years ago I saw a newspaper article explaining Dr Byington’s background and expertise, and announcing that he had returned to his hometown of Lincoln to join the other doctors at Prairie Orthopaedic. I immediately made an appointment with him and knew within the first couple minutes that I had made an excellent choice. Since then I’ve had many appointments with him and one surgery that was almost five years ago. Not only are his knowledge and skills top quality but also his rapport with patients, his cheerful personality that is very welcoming and reassuring, his thoroughness during each appointment which often includes showing me illustrations on his tablet so I know exactly what he’s talking about, his calm and confident demeanor and his nice comments and compliments that help me feel very valued. He’s not in a hurry to do surgery unless it’s obviously needed. Other types of treatments and physical therapy referrals (to the best physical therapist I’ve ever had) are used as long as they’re effective, leaving surgery as a later choice if needed. He even goes over MRI reports and images with me in person, with explanations I can understand. During the years I’ve been a patient of Dr Byington I’ve never had the sense that he was in a rush or not particularly interested in my pain situation. I mention this because it was common at other clinics I’ve been to prior to going to Prairie Orthopaedic. The entire staff there has always been kind, patient, sweet, helpful, informative and respectful towards me. Every single one of them. Since it’s not a HUGE clinic it feels like family. They truly care. The facility is fairly newly built, well-equipped, clean and very attractive. It’s a medical clinic that I actually look forward to going to, with no apprehension or anxiety. (I want to add a comment about another doctor at Prairie Orthopedic, Dr Pat Hurlbut. I’ve had numerous successful treatments and surgeries with him, but more noteworthy is that almost two years ago he did an amazing and successful hip replacement surgery for my 90 year old stepmother who had fallen on ice. She had a good recovery and is still walking without pain now at age 92.) I hope both doctors will have opportunity to read this. Thank you so much.

On 4/21/22 I made a request online for an appointment. Clinic called me on Friday, 4/22/22 to schedule a date and time for me to see the Dr. Dodson. They were able to get me in on Wednesday, 4/27/22. Very friendly staff (Kayla was great) and Dr. Dodson was wonderful! I was in and out of the clinic within an hour and that was removing two toenails (which by the way did not hurt at all). Would highly recommend Dr. Dodson and Prairie Orthopaedic and Plastic Surgery, PC.

Matt Byington is so knowledgeable and such a talented diagnostician, yet is very kind and thoughtful, always discussing options and focusing on educating and preparing his patients for procedures. He made me feel so confident and ready for my surgery; he’s so patient and takes the time to let me ask questions and express my concerns. One really awesome thing is that does some extra little things like numbing spray in addition to the local anesthetic to make my knee injections painless. Having had procedures with other orthopedics who “didn’t bother” made me really appreciate his empathetic approach to his patients. I’d give him 10 stars, no kidding.

I had a breast reduction and honestly the worst part of the entire process was getting the IV put in. I had a great experience (which is not what most people would say after being cut open). Dr. Machado made sure, on multiple occasions, to answer my questions. Even having me come in during a busy day to sit down with me, answer questions, and show me pictures of what he planned and how I should heal. I had high expectations for what I wanted coming in and he immediately told me he would do his best to give me what I wanted, but ultimately my body would be the deciding factor, which I really appreciated. There was never a moment where I didn't feel he had my best interest in mind. He went above and beyond and I am ecstatic with my results. I cannot recommend him enough.

In fact, we are lucky to have him in Lincoln. He’s a great guy who puts the patient’s outcome first. His staff is excellent, too. Kailin is an outstanding PA.

Can't thank Carol enough. Through 2 full knee replacement she guided me with encouragement, pushing gently when I needed it but backing off on "those other days". I actually looked forward to our PT. She gave me goals.

Dr.Gustavo is by far the BEST! His whole team in fact. My daughter was in a car wreck and while in Dr. gustavos care is the only time we felt like we were actually getting answers that were needed and the care that was needed. He always has a smile on his face as does his P.A I believe his name is Shoun. Do to our visit being from a mother vehical accident his team has been so easy to work with for the bills as well. It's proof that this doc is here for the paitients not the money! If anything were to happen to anyone else in my family or circle of friends I would not go anywhere but here to Dr. Gustavo and his amazing team.

I recently had appointments with Dr. John Chatwell for a hip/groin/lower back/upper thigh muscle issue that was keeping me up at night. I recently moved to Lincoln from Pennsylvania. Wow, wow, wow is all I can think to say. From receptionist to John himself I can honestly say that in my 70 years of doctor experiences these appointments were by far the most uplifting ones of my life. What a beautiful attitude all who work here present! Just an amazing time. Within a week I was already sleeping well and enjoying pain free days. John took the time to talk about what he was doing, why that particular exercise, and how it connected with the rest of the body. Just delightful in every way....if one can say that about choosing to go to painful pulls and tugs etc.! Great place!

In October 2012 I had a 7.62 NATO bolt action rifle fire out of battery with the bolt blowing back out of the gun destroying my right thumb. The skin, joints, ligaments and tendons were 95% gone. Dr. Machado met us at the ER, looked the mess over and said he would try to save it. He did surgery immediately and was able to save it. Plus with a few months of therapy from Erica, I have a thumb that is fully functional. Dr Machado is an amazing Doctor. My wife and I both highly recommend him.

I had an intense wrist fracture from a bike accident and was referred by the ER at Bryan West. Dr. Machado was able to evaluate me the next day, then get surgery scheduled within a few days after that. This was my first real surgery, and afterward the pain was pretty manageable. I did physical therapy with Erica Heiman, and she was awesome as well. It's been about 3 months since the surgery and I have normal range of motion in my wrist/hand! Overall, I'm super impressed. Everyone at Praire Ortho is Super Friendly and helped make an unfortunate situation feel much more normal :)

My husband is a complicated Bryan Trauma patient, Dr. Machado and Shaun Ring PA have been on his case since day 1. They have always been very thorough and answer every question that you have. My husband had multiple facial fractures and had to have his jaw wired shut for over 5 weeks, his surgery was almost 8 hours long. I got updated from the OR nurse or Dr.Machado himself multiple times to let me know that things were going well. This was a scary time for everyone involved but we put all of our trust into these two and I would definately do it over again if I had to. They are absolutely amazing at their jobs and care for their patients very much. Zac always looked forward to seeing them both at his follow up appointments and their encouragement has really helped him to continue moving forward through this difficult time in our lives. We will always recommend Dr. Machado and Shaun, because they are just simply the best there is.

Can I just say I am so lucky to have been assigned Dr Byington? I live in Australia and was in the States on vacation visiting my brother when we had a boating accident up by Ft Randall resevouir. We unfortunately hit a submerged log and I was thrown forward - my leg getting caught between the seats of our pontoon. Unfortunately that resulted in a Tibial plateau fracture and here I was with no insurance and no doctor locally. After a quick diagnosis/xrays/pain killers; I returned to Lincoln Nebraska in search of a surgeon to fix my knee trama. 3 days later, I went to St Elizabeth’s emergency hoping they could fix me up as I was unable to get an appointment the normal way for anyone to look at my knee. To their credit the staff at St E’s decided the procedure needed more expertise than they could offer and they tried to transfer me to Bryan West to the good hands of Dr Byington. But as fortune would have it, they were thwarted by some medical rule that dictates patients can’t be pawned off onto another hospital if it’s deemed advantageous to the transferring hospital. So I had to stay at St E’s - but as luck would have it Dr Byington made the decision to come to me and I am soooooo thankful that he did. Never have I had such a caring doctor. He goes above and beyond explaining the process and what I could expect before/during/and after the operation plus (as I had had days to read about procedures and blogs about what could go wrong) he patiently listened to my concerns and wishes and actually agreed to consider a less invasive approach in dealing with my knee. (I’m a big boned girl and felt it wasn’t necessary to have a plate). He took it on advisement and said he would assess the situation whilst in the operating room. The result? No plate just 3 bolts & some bone cement to fill in the gaps, my Miniscus repaired and reattached along with some ligaments and the smallest of incisions/and scarring. It’s now week 8 and I am getting along great and getting stronger by the day. I still have a bit of nerve pain and swelling but am assured that will subside with time. By week 12 I expect to be to full weight bearing and hopefully back to normal. I can not recommend Dr Byington enough. PS. I have sent my friend Tom to him and he is also very impressed with him after he diagnosed his suspected knee problem as actually a hip problem and is treating him accordingly until he requires a replacement. Can I just say it is so refreshing to find a surgeon that doesn’t have a God complex and actually has compassion and apathy for his patients.

The Staff and Doctors at Prairie Orthopedic are AMAZING!!! When our daughter got bit by a dog in the face and the ER failed us, they graciously took time out of their busy schedules to see us. From front of office staff to all the nurses we were treated with kindness and compassion. A very special Thank You to Dr. Byintgon and Dr. Machado for helping us minimize the scaring to our 13 years old girls face. If my daughter would have allowed me I would have posted of picture or Dr. Machado's work. We will be forever grateful.

Everyone is very knowledgeable, friendly and takes time with each patient to go over tests, exams and answer all questions. With all that, you still get in and out quickly. It is not like other practices where you spend 5x's as much time waiting as you do with the Dr. At Prairie you are with your Dr promptly. Love this practice.

Carpal tunnel release surgery: Dr. Hurlbut is amazing to work with! If anyone had told me how smooth this process would be- I would not have believed them. Dr. Hurlbut and his staff led me through all the procedures from start to finish and answered all my questions. Two weeks later I am ready to do almost anything. I can give Orthopaedic Surgery my highest rating because of Dr. Hurlbut and his staff.

Friday afternoon I found out with my doctor that I had fractured my fibula. You don’t need much but a wrong ankle twist playing soccer as a late 48 year old beginner. So, not having any experience with injuries before, I wanted to find an orthopedic that would be knowledgeable yet a great communicator, highly professional but with true empathy, confident but being approachable. Dr. Matt Byngton surprised me first by taking me in to his office, after office ours, that same Friday evening. Excellent facility by the way. He not only met all my expectations, he delivered with that extra feature that intelligent people have, good story telling and humor. I left his office ready to endure weekend family activities with a smile, after good laughs, and a feeling of trust and of genuinely being taken cared of. I’m confident that the recovery will go smooth under his care ... and am looking forward to getting back on the soccer field!

I took my daughter to Dr. Byington for a severe ankle injury. She is a is a very active, multi-sport athlete who can't afford to miss time out of the pool/on the dance floor, etc. We were in right away and were extremely impressed by Dr Byington's knowledge, skill, professionalism, and, frankly, how much he cared about our Daughter's well being. He knew exactly what to say and how to make her not worry unnecessarily. The diagnosis was precise and explained to us in a way we could clearly understand what had happened - his depth of experience with sports injuries was clear. Even more, the instructions Dr. Byington provided on how care for her injury at home to ensure the most rapid recovery possible, were just very well done. I don't normally post reviews online, but this is an such an easy five-star review for me and I'm taking the time to write this because of the really great experience during what would otherwise have been a stressful visit to a doctor.

Love this man. One of the only Dr's out there who wants to make sure that if you have a problem you call, he don't care if it is after hours or if it's during normal business hours. He will go above and beyound for his patients. You just don't find that kind of care and concern from Dr's anymore. You WILL get that from this man. He fully believes in actually talking to someone not a machine. I would fully recommend him for any surgery or anything you had to have done in his specialty. Oh and I can say he does AMAZING work.

I recently decided to go to Prairie Orthopedics on a limb and I am SO happy I did. I have had my in-grown toenail done three times by my primary care physician (Not at Prairie Ortho). Every time I got the procedure done, I was in so much pain and they kept growing back. I came to Prairie Orthopedics to see if Dr. Krejci could help my situation. SHE DID! She not only removed my ingrown toenail but she did it with out me feeling any pain! She also gave me options and suggestions to make sure they don't grow back. I'm very pleased with not only Dr. Krejci but everyone in the office. The office ladies are SO nice, and very good at working with your schedule. They also think of you if a slot opens to try and get you in sooner. Both Dr. Krejci, her nurse Karla, and Chad are all VERY nice. They never made me feel bad about having ugly toes! They also were very good at keeping conversation, and showing they cared! I will continue to see Dr. Kara Krejci with any foot problems I have in the future!

Dr Byington treated my daughter after a back injury sustained from competitive cheerleading. He was so thorough with us and really explained the injury, rehabilitation and further risk reduction principles. In my experience, it is often hard to get "time" with a physician, not with Dr Byington. We were never rushed and felt like we were given a solid evaluation and treatment plan.We were referred to physical therapy where she has continued to progress and get back to level of function prior to injury. We would highly recommend Dr Byington for any young athlete. The complete patient experience we received made this injury much easier to manage from start to finish. Thanks Dr Byington!!

Several years ago, my daughter had broken her forearm while playing on our back yard jungle gym. We took her to the emergency room to get her arm put in a cast. When the cast came off, we realized the arm was not set properly and she only had about 30% rotation ability. We then were referred to Children's Hospital in Omaha where her arm was re-broken and her bones were drilled our to receive rods to get her bones to heal correctly. The surgery went well and in time she regained nearly 100% use of her arm. We thought we were out of the woods as several years had passed and she had no problems. However, after about 6 or so years, my wife and I noticed our daughter became reluctant to "stress" her arm. Within a week of noticing, she was in so much pain, she just held her arm to her stomach with her other hand. That's when we found Dr. Hurlbut. He took x-rays of her arm, and saw that the rod was being pushed out of her bone and was plucking a nerve every time she moved. Seeing how much pain she was in, he immediately scheduled surgery for her, so she could get some reprieve. Dr. Hurlbut sat down with me and my wife and in great detail, explained the surgery and what he needed to do. He gave us as much time as we needed to ask questions and share concerns. (He was also very kind and caring with my wife when she cried). The surgery went exactly as he had explained and our daughter is back to her normal self. I wished we had found Dr. Hurlbut when the accident happened, but we do count ourselves VERY fortunate to have found him to put an end to our daughters pain.

Dr. Byington did a total knee replacement on me, his attention to detail and explaining the process (including 3D models) so you have a total understanding of your procedure is so refreshing...cuts down a lot of stress on not only the patient but the family too. My procedure was done at Lincoln Surgical Center and again TOP NOTCH staff, I was always attended to promptly. I am shocked by how little pain I am in, more of a discomfort. I chalk this up to Dr. Byington putting the right med in at the right time makes a perfect “pain cocktail” again his attention detail shines through.

I suffered with carpal tunnel for a number of years. When I finally scheduled a visit with Dr. Hurlbut I still wasn't sure whether I should go ahead with surgery. Everything was explained very well to me and he and PA Shannon. Suggested surgery on both hands. I was expecting that would be an endoscopic procedure. They explained that Dr. Hurl it does a modified open procedure and their experience was quite positive with that. I went ahead and am so thankful I did. I returned to work the day after survey and two months post op I can hardly see the scars. His staff was great - very friendly. I highly recommend this practice.
