Dr. Lundeen has some of the best bedside manner I have seen in years. His whole team is so personable! He makes sure he shows and explains what he is going to do. He takes the time to make sure you understand and are comfortable. He never makes you feel like he is in a rush. He makes time for all of your questions. I’m very happy with his work and the way he does things!

Dr. Lundeen is TOP NOTCH! One of the best doctors I’ve had the pleasure of having! He is so kind, thoughtful, and really just wants to give his patients the best experience. I have a condition that opts for 3 possible surgeries, but he never pushed for a single one. He said, here are your options, you are in the driver’s seat. He also took the extra time to answer all of the questions I had regarding the surgery options even though they were running behind. I’m very grateful for him and highly recommend for anyone needing medical opinions in this area of expertise!

Dr. Lundeen is a skilled doctor and surgeon. He is very calm, knowledgeable and patient. I have a “unique” foot and ankle that required out of the box solutions. He has been very honest in setting expectations, timing etc. I would recommend him to anyone!
