Great experience so far. They were able to get me in the very next day. Hannah at the front desk (and the other gals) the minute I walked in, made eye contact, smiled greeted me and were very friendly and helpful. (I don't see this at many clinics anymore, they're all too busy or robotic) But not these gals. The gal that did my MRI was wonderful, she gave me a magazine and headphones and put my favorite Pandora station on for the 30 minute MRI which this machine you just stick your leg in it, you don't have to go in the full tube, so I was able to read and relax. Dr Verploeg and Jessica his assistant were great, really took their time with me, didn't act rushed and explained things so well. He will be doing my ACL replacement surgery very soon. I feel as though I am in really good hands. Several of my co-workers, their spouses and children had him as their surgeon and later that night went to a restaurant where a gal said he did hers too and she was very pleased. So it sounds like he is very well known and has a great reputation.

A Very Surreal Knee Replacement

Wonderful office staff, PA, and physician. Polite, conscientious, willing to spend as much time as they need to with you. The smoothest sailing ship I've been on in a long time.

Exceptional surgeon, exceptional human being

I spent six months under the care of Dr. Verploeg after sustaining a severe knee injury while skiing. From the first day I met him, Dr. Verploeg treated me like a family member and expressed genuine compassion for my predicament. Today, six months after ACL reconstruction surgery, I am extremely grateful to Dr. Verploeg for his surgical expertise and his reassuring bedside manner. He is an exceptional surgeon and an exceptional human being.

ANOTHER 10+ EXPERIENCE with Dr. Eric Verploeg

My entire family has had the total fortune to have found Dr. Eric Verploeg. After having knee surgeries at other Summit Co. Colorado facilities, we ventured to SteamBoat Springs to have Dr. Verploeg look at our situations and prescribe proper procedures, surgeries, etc. Since day one over 20 + years ago now, our family has had multiple knee procedures, and other operations performed

by Dr. Verploeg. My latest surgery was a very in-depth shoulder / rotator / bicep tendon operation

on May 24, 2016. It has been 12 weeks now since that major surgery, and I have 100% full range-

of-motion, plus quickly building strength. From what most people have described as a 'very painful

long-term recovery, it recovery at all' surgery, I can say that my maximum pain level has been not

more than a '2' on a scale of 10. It was at least an 8 on a scale of 10 for 6-8 months prior to the

surgery. My PT says it is the best shoulder/rotator cuff rehab she has ever seen, even with patients

in their 20's, 30's. I am 65. She is most anxious to meet Dr. Verploeg at some time.



To say that I am happy not only with this latest surgery , but with all that Dr. Verploeg

has done for myself and our entire family would be an understatement to say the least.



Eric's very obvious knowledge and care of what he does is most apparent. If this review of

Dr. Verploeg is based upon a scale of 1-10, then the actual rating from me would be in the

14 ++ range.
