Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Koch and his PA did an excellent job of explaining my knee problem.

Quick and to the point.
Dr. Koch and company (NE Orthapedic) are exceptional at what they do. As a patient I’ve been through a multitude of doctors there. A wrist and shoulders have made me a believer. They have all the right equipment and a knowledgable and efficient staff. There is simply no place else to look in Lincoln for your Orthapedic needs in my opinion.Mark

Great Team
Had my right knee scoped this past winter and everything went smooth. Pre op apt Dr Koch was very informative and thorough. Surgery went great and follow up with Sam was excellent. Getting my left knee scoped this fall. Pre op with Sam went well again. Great team! I would recommend them to anyone needing their specialties.

Always excellent care.
Dr. Koch is very caring and asks questions to determine exactly how I am doing. He is personable and encourages me to call back if injection isn’t effective in the appropriate number of days.

I've been highly recommending Dr. Koch for years,
I absolutely love coming, everyone is so friendly and helpful....your treated like a person not just someone to get in and out of the office. Everybody actually has a conservation with you and never feel rushed. Your office is always extremely busy but everyone is willing and goes the extra mile to take care of things including the front reception gals! Dr. Koch and Sam have done numerous trigger fingers and thumb release also my carpal tunnel surgeries. Everything is explained perfectly and I know to ask questions and get honest replys. When it comes time to do knee replacements, Dr. Koch will be the one I call.
