I am so impressed with my recent experience at Ortho Nebraska hospital. Every employee from the time I checked in to leaving to go home was friendly loving and sincerely concerned about my health and healing. I can't say enough good things about my experience.

I chose Dr. Bredthauer because of his age knowing that he may have seen my unusual condition before and he could give advice of what to do. He did exactly what I was hoping for and so glad I chose him to look at my hip area issue.
