“Tore cartilage in right knee and needed a scope. I am an avid runner and biker so someone recommended Dr. Guse and he was fantastic. Understood all my needs and made me feel very comfortable about a full recovery. I run and bike over 30 miles every week and have done so since about a month after surgery.”
“I love Dr. Guse. He has taken amazing care of me. I look forward to continuing my care with him forever!”
“I had knee replacement around May 13th. Therepy was great. I did two weeks of it and things started to get better so I continued therepy at home. Well here it is July 27th and I'm walking a brisk 45 minutes every day with no discomfort, plus some other physical exercise. I have lost 30 plus pounds. The doctor explained it all well and healing went like he said.”
“I had a torn ACL, torn meniscus, and torn MCL. I received this injury while playing basketball. I was running down the court at a fast pace with the ball, leaped into the air, came down hard onto my feet, and pushed off to the right as my leg contacted the court. A defender was positioned directly in front of me, which is why I pushed off to the right to jump away from him to get a shot off. I felt a pop and knew immediately that I had injured something. I did not experience a lot of pain, but my knee was very unstable and felt very peculiar. I went to Dr. Guse and found out the bad news. I am a top-notch athlete and already have a full ride commitment from Wright State University, a D1 college. I was very nervous about my future. My scholarship is for baseball. Dr. Guse operated on me December 11, 2013. Dr. Guse showed us pictures of everything he did before and after the repairs. He did an excellent job. My rehab went very well, and I was able to play baseball in the spring of 2014, just four months after surgery. I was a little timid and everyone was being over cautious with me. I did not have a great season, but constantly improved by the end of the season. Six months after surgery, I was at about 95%, and did get honorable mention from the Columbus paper for the All Area Baseball Team. My summer ball team, which is comprised of mostly college baseball players, did very well. Likewise, I did very well, batting in the mid to upper 300's, and pitched some very good games. Wright State has been very supportive, and is working hand in hand with my high school. I feel I am at 100% now, and am very excited about my future college career and or pro career. Thank you very much, Dr. Guse, and all those who assisted you.”
“I'm 53 and love to play ultimate Frisbee. About 5-6 years ago, after enduring reduced range of motion and pain in both shoulders for 15-20 years, I tried to throw the Frisbee with my right hand and could not due to shoulder weakness. I went through physical therapy and cortisone shots, but the shoulder was unresponsive. Dr. Guse repaired the rotator cuff, cleaned up the joint a bit, and after a fairly long rehab, the shoulder was fixed. After a couple of years, it was back to full strength. Then I noticed I was having pretty severe pain and reduced range of motion in my left shoulder. Again, I went through physical therapy and cortisone shots, but the shoulder was unresponsive. This time the diagnosis was different. It was a SLAP tear. This is a bone spur and something else I forget, but again, Dr. Guse repaired it. For this surgery, the recovery was miraculous. I was ready to play Frisbee six months later. Today, six years from my first surgery, both my shoulders feel great! I am playing ultimate with full confidence and strength. Please do not be misled. The post-surgical recovery is hard and sometimes painful work. I was highly motivated and maintained the rehab discipline. I listened to the staff and Dr. Guse on recovery protocol and limits. Even then, I'm told my results were unusually positive. I am thankful to have had Dr. Guse as my surgeon and also to the staff of the CRH Rehab facility, adjacent Dr. Guse's office.”
“Dr. Guse and his staff are very friendly. Dr. Guse explains everything very well.”
