“My left arm was in constant pain and completely unusable. Had a rotator cuff repair and after a few months of therapy, my arm functions perfectly with absolutely no pain. My results far exceed any expectations I had.”
“Has a good bedside manner. Makes knowledgeable decisions based on his experience.”
“I had a Left Knee Total Replacement. Everything was successful. No problem with anything.
The key thing is to take the class before the surgery and follow the Doctor orders. Attend to all the Physical Therapy exercise class.
By me doing this, I have not been back. But for regular check up only.”
“Dr. Tenholder was excellent. Total hip replacement was a total success. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a hip replacement. The entire staff was excellent and a pleasure to deal with. I was in and out of the hospital and one day. Chipping and putting in two weeks, full rounds of golf in 6 weeks. A total success and all arthritic pain is gone.”
“I am always seen on time, and the doctors and staff treat me with courtesy and always explain my problem and the treatment.”
“I had knee replacement surgery on March 1, 2016. Throughout the entire process, I was impressed with the professionalism of the entire staff. They were all very caring. My experience with the rehab staff was very enjoyable also. Lloyd Harris was my therapist during my entire rehab. I could not have asked for a more caring and professional therapist. I would recommend Orthopaedic Associates to anyone.”
“I am a US Marine Veteran and the VA system is slow. This procedure on me was put in Dr. Tennholder's hands. Orthopaedic Associates and my doctor took the best care and did it in a very timely manner allowed by VA. Now I am in much better shape due to the diligence of the doctor and staff of Orthopaedic Associates. Thank You.”
“While visiting in Florida, I had a terrible pain in my neck and shoulders. Saw the doctor and he prescribed a medication and physical therapy. Both worked well and I was able to spend my ten weeks in Florida pain free.”
“Doctor Tenholder perform a hip procedure for me in November 2015. He has been very professional, very attentive as well as his associates. My pre-op process and post-op process was very easy. Plus my rehab. with Orthopaedic Associates {Jeri, Lloyd and Tina} went very well. I would strongly recommend Doctor Tenholder and his staff to anyone in need of his services as a referral. Plus my hospital stay was a "rock star" visit.”
“I was seeking care for my knee problem. Dr. Tenholder evaluated and set forth a plan just for me. His PA was very nice and very caring. Thanks, Dr. Tenholder and staff.”
“Although I came to Dr. Tenholder after 9 surgeries from another provider, he has been very patient and professional with his diagnostic opinions. Dr. Tenholder is now my doctor of choice for orthopaedic care. His recommendations regarding my care have continued to increase my quality of life. I'm glad I did my research and chose Dr. Tenholder.”
“Our experience With Dr. Tenholder was amazing. The staff was courteous and knowledgeable in all departments. We (my daughter and I) had an all around wonderful experience at Orthopaedic Associates! Highly recommend it to anyone.”
“Dr. Tenholder has performed several surgeries for me. I have been very happy with the results. Follow-up appointments were always a pleasant experience. Always seen in a timely manner; I do not recall a time having to wait beyond the scheduled appointment time. The surgical center staff has been excellent; from intake to discharge instructions. Very thorough and caring. The PT staff at FWB has been most helpful and caring. They present a challenging program, while not over doing it. I would definitely recommend Dr. Tenholder and Orthopaedic Associates.

“Everyone is professional and friendly.”
“Amazing service! The women at the desk handled a lot of clients & phone calls at the same time & were very courteous & knowledgeable. The doctor was very helpful, as well as his assistant. I'm an RN & have been in health care since 79. I was very impressed!”
“Without fail, Dr. Tenholder always walks in the door with a smile & his hand extended for a warm welcome. He listens attentively, does not interrupt but will ask questions for additional info. I never feel rushed or that my issue is insignificant. For my issues, Dr Tenholder explained the treatment options and gave recommendations when I asked his opinion. I'm glad that my primary doctor recommend Dr. Tenholder and I highly recommend Dr. Tenholder. ”
“From the beginning of my procedure to the end the staff was awesome. They were more than willing to listen to an old man's stories which goes a long ways to lowering anxiety.”
“This is my 2nd hip replacement that Dr. Tenholder has performed on me. I think the doctor is great. His team is great. After the 1st operation I had, I knew I would not find a better doctor than Dr. Tenholder. He has a great staff that was very easy to work with and took great care of me.”
“"After a fall off my bicycle in April of 2014 resulting in a nasty injury to my hip, at seventy years of age there was no relief from the pain from my injury. Pain and poor night sleep resulted in a ruined life. Came across some wise words of wisdom from Elementary school:
For every ailment under the sun,
There is a remedy, or there is none.
If there be one, try to find it.
If there be none, never mind it
.
Mother goose was correct then and still is now. So needless to say, having already been acquainted with the surgeon's at Orthopedic Associates, it was just admitting to myself that the time had arrived to have the procedure performed and get my life back. And just two months later I'm just about back to my normal life, pain-free and wonderful restful nights rest. Thank you to the wonderful staff and Doctor's at Orthopedic Associates.
”
“I am a snowbird in Florida for the winter. Dr. Tenholder accepted me as a patient in spite of my out of state status. I was given a series of three shots for knee pain. My visits went well and the shots provide me with pain relief. Staff and doctor were all very professional. Thank you for your care and I will return for further care.”
“After a bicycle mishap which caused injury to my right hip, a consultation with my doctor and X-rays verified an injury which was not improving with physical therapy or other minor treatment, in my case age also was a factor. Quality of life issues became apparent. Proceeded with the hip replacement and am now two weeks out and the constant daily pain is gone and mobility is increasing quickly. Looking forward to getting my life back and am glad to be rid of the pain.”
“Always professional and caring. He listens.”
“I have had the good fortune to have the staff at Orthopaedic Associates help me through 2 separate bicep tears. Both injuries were Worker's Comp and both took a great deal of effort by all parties to get things signed off in time to make a timely repair. Everyone that I have ever dealt with on your great staff has been professional and each has gone out of their way to insure me that all that could be done was actually being done. Both repairs took a while to get back to 100%, but they finally did and I am back to doing arduous work related activities with no limitations. I felt privileged to have Dr. Tenholder do both surgeries and would recommend him without reservation. If I ever need further ortho work done, it will be done by him and the great staff that work at all your various sites. Thank you for the opportunity to share my experience. It is great to have such a team locally.

“I had my second knee replacement with Dr. Tenholder holder this past May. The surgery went well, and I was home from Sacred Heart Hospital in a couple days. I am 68, and I was up and walking right away with a walker for only a few days, and then a cane. After about 3 weeks I didn't need any assistance, and was driving a 6 weeks. The outpatient PT with Matt and the rest of the staff at Orthopaedic Associates in Destin, was great. I am at 6 months post surgery. I can now walk a couple miles, and ride my bike for an hour, with little or no pain. I highly recommend this practice, and Dr.Tenholder.
