Dr. Thomas Wiedrich, MD

Seems like he cares but it took four years to finally get results of tendinitis, carpel-tunnel and arthritis. Several injections and visits and he finally tells me there's nothing that can be done. REALLY? If he told me that 3 years ago, I would not have wasted more time on visits and would have learned to live in pain. I am actually seeing a new doctor at Rush who is recommending surgery to get mobility back in my thumbs. I have hope again. This guy was a waste of time!

I am very satisfied with my overall experience with Dr Wiedrich and his staff. Everyone was very professional and explained every step of the process. They were willing to answer all my questions. The procedure and results went extremely well. The scheduling for office visits and surgery was very timely. I never had to wait beyond the scheduled time.

I would not recommend this place to anybody !!! I went to dr. Wiedrich following hiking accident in Europe. I had comminuted, displaced, intra-articular distal radius fracture. After successful closed reduction and splint placement I flew back home. Back in Europe I was told to expect surgery. Long story short they replaced splint I had on for 4 weeks after the accident with new fiberglass cast. They put new cast in a different position. New cast pushed on not fully healed bones and caused damage to my joint- radius collapsed and rotated, so now radius is shorter than ulna. I'm left with right hand with limited range of motion and possible osteotomy, which requires graft and rebreaking the bones. When I decided to seek second opinion it was too late for open reduction, which was the right choice. Lack of expertise , common sense and putting profits over patients leads to permanent damage. Choose the doctor who is highly recommended by patients and see the outcome after surgery.

Great dr!

You cannot do better. Kind, listens well, doesn’t rush to do surgery unless other options have been explored. I would send anyone I cared about to Dr. Wiedrich.

Excellent knowledge paired with great demeanor and "bed side" manners. I had some nerve damage from a shoulder surgery and Dr. Wiedrich didn't candy coat anything but was optimistic, encouraging and very thorough in his helping with my condition. I've since referred numerous friends and family to him and they all agree that he is everything you want in a Doctor.

Always on time. Explains everything thoroughly. My surgery went smoothly, and you can't see a scar.

Dr Wiedrich is hands down one of the best doctors i have seen. He is professional and has an incredible bedside manner.

After a year and a half of misdiagnosis by 5 other upper extremity specialists who told me I had arthritis I was in constant pain couldn't eat dress myself or drive. Dr Wiedrich sent me for an ultrasound (I'd had 3 prior to coming to him) he immediately diagnosed tenosynovitis. He operated and found scarring that occurred from the lengthy non treatment. Surgery went smoothly I recovered the use of my hand and independence Thank God for Dr Wiedrich

Good humored, friendly and the best!
