Dr Lee is caring & finds out the problem before doing any treatment
Dr Fish was very nice and explained everything in my terms not medical terms.
I had a great experience having my hip / sciatic nerve rehabbed. Going back to have my knee repaired.
Great service and professionalism.. would highly recommend them
wife and i have had experiences with dr yannish and dr fish both fine surgeons.
I visited Capital Orthopedic around sept./Oct 2016 that was my first and last visit. This had to be the worst service from a Dr I had ever experience. I will never refer anyone to Capital Orthopedics..
Smaller ortho office so you feel more welcome and it seems that you get more personable care.
A professional and very informative interaction with Dr Bjerke and I would highly recommend him to anyone.
I was referred there but after being put on hold for 9 minutes, then spoken rudely to, and put on hold again I have requested a different referral. They are very rude.
My first and last appointment at this place. I sat in a room for over an hour and finally went out in the hall and told them I had been waiting over an hour. The doctor came in and he was soso..
Not a pleasant experience.
Surgery was great, but have to wait at least an hour every time I go in there. Don’t understand how they are always running behind.
Everyone was super nice !!
Excellent care! Dr. Nguyen is top notch – very thorough and informative.
Very caring and explained what was wrong in a manner that was easy to understand. Didn’t feel rushed.
Pain in the butt. I have been waiting to have surgery for 3 months now. They lose paper work, talking to a real person is impossible and I have had to keep on them to get my stuff submitted and in line.
Dr Jacobson is a great doctor and a surgeon beyond aproch he doesn’t mince words and gets to the point
Billing is a nightmare with this company.
You do not get an invoice, they do not answer the phone. When they do answer they deflect all billing calls to credit collection company.
Trying to figure out billing is endless circle and waste of time!
Very professional quick to see patient explained everything so u could under stand it gave the patient options on solving problem
GREAT PEOPLE TOOK VERY GOOD CARE OF ME WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS IS THE PLACE TO HAVE SURGERY

Dr. Nguyen is the nicest doctor I have ever met.
Dr Jacobson is a complete professional. Spoke frankly and answered all my questions. I would go back again for any joint issues.
If I had to have my other arm done I don’t believe I would get the numbing medicine prior to the operation.
Was so professional and caring to my husband. Appreciate the honesty too. Will definitely recommend Dr. LEE to anyone. Thank you.
I would recommend Dr. Lee for any and all of your feet and ankle issues. He gets to the bottom of your pain and you receive an action plan for relief.

My son hurt his ankle in gym class, and he was in quite a bit of pain. Capital Ortho got us in the same day, x-rayed his ankle in the office, determined it was a sprain (not a break, thankfully), fitted him with a boot and got us out within an hour! Thank you!!

Fractured my elbow this morning, had a 2:15pm appointment scheduled. I was told to come 15 minutes early by the Urgent care nurse at Mercy West. I’m sooo glad I came early the 15 minutes early, so Dr.Fish could be an hour and a half late. …
I cannot say enough good things about Capital Orthopedics. They are professional, straightforward, and excellent care providers. Highly recommended.

Very straightforward and I knew the plan by the time I left.

Great experience at Capital Orthopedics with Micheal Lee!
Dr Lee was just great. I felt heard, I understood the process of my surgery & recovery & the staff is very friendly, professional and thorough. I highly recommend Capital Orthopedic
Excellent therapist and my surgeon was also excellent

Dr. Lee is the first doctor to recognize what is wrong with my foot. He listened to me and suggested a few different options. I have great respect for Dr. Lee.

Our experiences with Dr. Jacobson have been top-notch. He’s very friendly and conversational, and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
My particular concerns were not addressible by the doctor. The referring physician was mistaken about Dr Gherke’s ability to view xrays without soft tissie imaging. So, Dr Gherke did say he would be happy to look at inages once completed.
They provided very good care. Highly recommend.
This place is incredible. Polite staff, professional doctors, state of the art facility. The most impressive part was the aggressiveness in which they took to fix my issue and they weren’t afraid to say “I don’t know let me research that” …

Great place, I went there after being told for a year I had a bad sprain, Dr. Lee was upfront told me what to do in order to get the right insurance for surgery, he brought me and my ankle back to life, never felt better. Also seeing Dr. …
Had a great experience with the Dr. Very impressed. Thanks to all who helped us.
I had my hand therapy at capital with Erika Sibley, their certified hand therapist. She is spectacular! The surgeon did a great job but she rehabilitated my hand and got it’s function back. I recommend without reservation!
Dr. Lee was very thorough at explaining the issues with my daughter’s feet and how he will help resolve it. He made sure all of our questions were answered without making us feel rushed.

I was really impressed with Dr. Bjerke’s explanation of my neck injury. He showed clear pictures of MRI’s showing the differences from my neck mri to a normal mri. He even let me take pictures.

I had rotator cuff surgery with Dr.. Jacobson. I did not pick dr. Jacobson, he was assigned by the workman’s compensation people. I am glad they did though. I had five people tell me how good a doctor doctor Jacobson was before I had the …
I went in for spine surgery, before I had a hard time sitting and laying in bed, legs and feet would go numb and bottom would feel like its on fire. After Dr Bjerke performed the surgery, I was able stand, walk, and lay in bed with no pain. He did a fantastic job and thank him dearly.
Dr. Jacobson repaired R shoulder (2012) L Shoulder (2017) and I’m thrilled with the results-I have not had to slow down! Happy to entrust him with a hip injury and I really appreciate his non-invasive efforts to get me back in to action! Full confidence in a surgeon who doesn’t just want to just slice-n-dice!!
I absolutely recommend Dr Bjerke. He did a fantastic surgery on me and was so positively thorough and professional. I am so happy that I was able to find someone who would listen to me and explain all aspects of my procedure.
Confident and clear explanation to all my questions. Walked me step by step through the surgical process giving me a perfect balance of expectation, a clear path towards recovery. The team is great.
There are physical therapy facilities closer to home, but this one is worth the drive. I like detailed explanations, and really appreciated Brian’s patience in helping me understand what was going on. I was impressed with the PT as well ask Dr. Fish and Matt in the clinic. Highly recommend.
Dr. Jacobson has done surgery to repair meniscus tears in my left knee 3 years ago and my right knee just last week. I could not be happier. The recovery was very quick with no problems. He is an outstanding surgeon and I would strongly recommend him.
Every aspect of my experience with Capital Orthopedics and Dr Lee was excellent. The front office gals were friendly. My time in the waiting area was minimal as was my wait once I was in an exam room. Dr Lee was very pleasant and did a great job in assessing my foot problem. I would highly recommend Capital Orthopedics.
Dr Jacobson was awesome! Very much so short and to the point, but willing to answer questions if you have them. Sometimes there is a long wait (either in waiting area OR in actual room), and the staff don’t really let you know what’s going on. But, other than that, it was a pretty pleasant experience – considering the circumstances.
I have had the wonderful opportunity to have Bryan as my PT after knee surgery. My healing was going ok, but when I started Physical Therapy with Bryan my knee and my mobility has improved so much! I am so please with my experience! Thanks Bryan and Capital Orthopedics! Great job!
Dr Mike Lee is fantastic. He quickly and safely help get 2 of my kids back on the field and court… where a lot of doctors seeing pediatric patients tend to be overly conservative.
Bill Jacobson was honest and helpful. The last doctor experience I had, I felt like the doctor didn’t care-this was not the case with Bill! He was friendly, comfortable to talk to, and made sure to answer all of my questions. He also gave me a referral to a physical therapist that I’m very happy with! Thank you!
I absolutely love Dr. Jacobson at Capital Orthopedics! I’ve been seeing him on and off for the past 12 years. He provides excellent care, knowledgeable, and so kind and compassionate. I couldn’t imagine seeing another Ortho. The staff is always kind and courteous as well!
I have had a couple of visits. The first time was with Dr Jill and the next time with Dr Michael Nguyen. Both of them were kind, highly knowledgeable and explained the underlying issue and most importantly I resumed activities without much time away. Highly recommend both of them.
Dr. Jacobson and his team at Capitol Orthopedics have done a great job in taking care of my genetically poor knees. I have had one full replacement and am ready to get the other one done. The process was easy and my recovery went well!! My …
Dr. Michael Lee performed a Lisfranc repair on my foot and I could not be happier with the level of care I received. 10/10 recommend! Hopefully I don’t need anything else in the future but if I do I know where I’m going.
The care was excellent and very patient oriented. My surgeon (Dr Yanish) was very intentional kept me informed about my options before surgery. I would highly recommend Capital Orthopedics and Sports Medicine.
My husband Lowell was next door at pain center appointment. Said he’d like Dr Ben’s option. He called Ben and said come right over. Did and got into Ben in less than an hour. Never been there ever. Went over all Drs had already done and …
I started seeing Dr. Lee about problems with my feet. I ended up having my toe amputated (which I have wanted done since 2013). It had gotten seriously infected and he and his team were quick to find it and get me hospitalized for the …
Erika is providing hand therapy post carpal tunnel surgery. She was both professional and personable and I enjoyed our conversation while receiving treatment. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking ohysical therapy!
The amount paid was ridiculous for just being told that I’m going to be in a boot that I already have for the next three weeks. That being said at least I know how long I have to wear this thing now.

Dr. Nguyen was awesome! I went for the walk-in clinic and don’t feel like my wait time was unreasonable! He was very knowledgeable and helpful in diagnosing and recommending treatments for my knee issues! I would definitely go back to this clinic and to Dr. Nguyen!
Vary nice place and understanding staff that takes time to listen to your concerns.
Wonderful bedside manner and expertise. My 14 year old had to have a portion of his toe nails removed and it couldn’t have gone smoother! From a very stressful situation to a better than expected outcome, Dr. Lee was awesome!
It was great. Please stop emailing and texting 3 times a day
I have had both knees replaced by Dr Jacobson, and am 100% happy with them. Today I had Dr Peterson do a right hip replacement which went flawlessly. I would recommend Capital Orthopedics to anyone! Excellent care and the nurses and staff are second to none

I’m amazed at how much better my ankle and foot feel after being treated by Dr. Lee. I wish I had gone to see him sooner.

He is an excellent physician/surgeon!
Dr. Lee is a breath of fresh air. He is caring, and takes the time to really explain things. And…and…he also has a great sense of humor, which is so refreshing in a Dr. Especially a foot Dr….nobody wants that job.

My experience with capital ortho was the best. Dr Jacobson and all his staff are very caring & they dont rush you out the door. And they listen to your concerns. Thanks Dr Jacobson and staff.
Information provided was helpful, presented in a professional manner, and explained at a level that should be easy for anyone to understand!
A big THANK YOU to Dr. Michael Lee and his staff at Capitol Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine for diagnosing and treating my daughter’s foot injury. …

Dr. Michael Nguyen and his staff were all friendly, prompt and very professional. I would highly recommend this Sports medicine group and staff.
I saw Dr. Lee for an accidental foot injury yesterday and he was very personable & pleasant. He was reassuring and confident with a diagnosis and plan of care information.

I have been seeing Andy twice a week at the COSM Physical Therapy office since mid-January. I am in therapy for post rotator cuff surgery. Andy is very kind, so positive and very knowledgeable. I couldn’t be happier with my treatment.
Dr. Jacobson is very pleasant and has a great bed side manner. More importantly, he truly cares about getting his patients well so they can enjoy life again. He has my recommendation.
Dr. Nguyen and his staff where respectful, knowledgeable, and did and excellent job at explaining my sons injury. There was great customer service from beginning to in. We were a walk in appointment and I was pleased at how quick of a process it was to see Dr. Nguyen.
I would definitely recommend Dr. Lee for a foot surgeon, he explains everything to you, actually listens to your concerns and answers all your questions, he doesn’t act like he has to rush off, he definitely seems like you are his only concern while he is in the room with you.
1st visit to review my MRI & I couldn’t have had a better experience. Dr. Jacobson examined me and advised me of what the MRI showed then provided me with choices with the pros & cons. Gave me ample time to decide on outpatient surgery and …
Dr. Lee got my daughter in on short notice. She is only 10 years old but was having some significant foot pain during sports. He did an excellent job of communicating to both her and myself during the appointment and brought humor to the …
The rating would have been a 5, great office and well run, my only issue is that I felt that everyone was rushing around and trying to get my out of the office quickly. Slow down a little and make the patient feel more comfortable with his or her treatment.
Dr. Peterson listens and is very thorough before reaching a diagnosis and treatment plan. Highly recommend.
After being misdiagnosed elsewhere, I was encouraged to be seen at Capital. The real issue was discovered quickly and I now live without the pain I was told I’d have the rest of my life!
Check in staff was amazing, and the paperless forms are greatly appreciated. However, Dr. Michael Lee was very inattentive of my needs and was very sexist in response. He didn’t suggest women in their 20s to get toenail surgery because it …
Received prompt and friendly assistance. Very thorough in checking my issues and offering additional testing to make a decision.
Dr. Nguyen immediately correctly assessed my situation and offered up a detailed care plan. It would seem that the field of medicine still holds fast to service.
Dr Jacobson and his staff were very polite and professional. He explained everything thoroughly and gave me all of my options so that I could make an informed decision.

I must say 1 of the ladies who does the calls for scheduling is not friendly at all & almost changed my mind about going to this facility but I decided maybe not everyone there isn’t as unfriendly as her. I am Very glad I went. Getting past …
Walk-in service for sports injuries is a much needed service. They were great!
I have known Dr Jacobson for almost 10 years. Although I moved to Florida, he is still helping me with a meniscus/arthritis issue and I am flying up for treatment. Always very knowledgeable, understanding and honest! His team is also very nice and accommodating!! Thank you for your help!
Extremely professional and very helpful. I had a procedure on one knee and am having the second done. Andy explained so much more then the first time. I was really impressed with how well he explained all I needed to know for a successful operation. Great team for sure
Everyone in this office is so professional and a pleasure to have on my team. Not a lot of doctors actually take time to explain everything, most are in and out in less than 10 minutes, but not here. I feel good about my care here, and I recommend this office over Iowa Ortho any day!
Very good experience at Capital Orthopaedics.
Doctors and support staff have all been very knowledgeable & informative every time I have had to visit.
Dr Nguyen was very friendly, professional, and awesome sense of humor to help a patient feel relaxed.
Dr Nguyen is amazing and he could teach a lot of doctors the art of bedside manner! He is very compassionate, takes time to listen and has a great sense of humor. He has fixed up a lot of the Coddington clan and we appreciate his expertise and warm personality!
I went to this office as a walk in on a Friday afternoon. I found the entire staff very friendly and helpful. The process was quick, and they got to the root of my problem quickly. Very pleasantly surprised at the level of service and care, seems to be hard to find these days.
Visited the urgent care walk in clinic with my son for a finger injury. Check-in was easy. All staff were friendly, professional and timely. Nick and Dr. Nguyen made my son feel comfortable. He explained his xrays and injury so he …
Dr. Jacobson is a great surgeon. He’s understanding and good at explaining your condition and options. I had one labral repair done there and am going to have my other shoulder done, too. The staff that did my MRI and arthrogram were also great to work with. It’s nice that they have an MRI on site now.
Dr Jacobson is bar-none the best surgeon I’ve ever had. He done an awesome job on my left shoulder and now he’s going to be doing my right. I appreciate his professional but personal bed-side manners. Plus the man loves horses, can’t go wrong there. – Steven Shawn Oden
Went in to have an ingrown toenail removed in mid December. Staff and Doc were awesome. The procedure went smooth with no issues. However within a few days something wasn’t right. I waited approx. 10 days and called in. I was told …
The clinic and staff were very welcoming and professional. My surgery was great and process of rehab just started and will continue for the next year. So glad I trusted the Dr and clinic staff , made it easy and successful .
Fantastic all the time. Dr Todd Peterson, Logan PA , and their Physical Therapy department is TOP NOTCH.
Very impressed with the level of care I
Have received thus far, have taken friends to other orthopedic centers and not impressed at all that is the reason I have chosen Capital ortho.
Dr. Lee is the best in Des Moines. He was not only straightforward about my options but also attentive. Scheduling was quick and simple. All the staff are very friendly as well. Capital Orthopedics is the place for hands and feet by far! …
I am very very satisfied with Dr Jacobson and his team they have always treated me with the upmost respect and care possible thank you for being my doctor
This is my second surgery here. My shoulder has been better than new for over a year now. My knee is on the road to the same outcome. Don’t let anyone else cut on you.
Dr.Nugyen was friendly, professional, and answered our questions. He looked at what we thought was a cyst or a fatty deposit, Dr.Nugyen said it could be a lymph node and Chris should have it looked at. He was right, it was a lymph node and he has Non Hodgkins Lymphoma.
This was my first injury requiring surgery. The staff and faculty were seemless and professional from in processing to post surgery support. …
The Doctors and nurses are always very pleasant and accommodating , The explain everything in a way you can understand and go over any and all questions you have…I have always had a wonderful experience with the staff at Capitol Orthopaedics .
Excellent care – the doctors and nurses truly listen to your concerns and as a team come up with plausible solutions. If you are looking for an amazing orthopedic doctor and staff, I would highly recommend them.
I have had 2 surgeries with Dr.Yannish, I saw Dr. Pederson for a nerve test and I just saw Dr. Nguyen for 2 broken elbows. They were all really nice, helpful and great at dumbing down the medical speak so I could understand exactly what was happening. I wouldn’t want to go to any other Ortho office.
Hey – if you are in search of the very best podiatric surgeon – look no further than Dr, Michael Lee at Capital Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine. He’s a phenomenal surgeon and he breaks the stereotype of surgeons. Idk about you, but I …
Dr Lee is amazing! He truly listens and gives you options to choose from that best fits your circumstance. Fully trust his opinion and professional knowledge.
All of the physicians and staff at Capitol Orthopedics have been outstanding. Dr Fish and Matt did my recent shoulder surgery, and they took the time to explain my issues and made sure my pain was being managed. My physical therapist, Andy, …
Dr Nguyen was very pleasant and explained everything to make sure both my granddaughter and I understood what was going on and exactly where the break in my ankle was. He reviewed the X-rays with us and referred me to have a CT scan to …
I’ve seen 2 providers from Capital Ortho. Both men, both extremely talented surgeons. Dr Peterson has been my provider for more than 1 knee issue, while Dr Lee has been my provider for a foot and a lower leg issue. I’d comfortably recommend …
Dr. Jacobson is very personable kind and compassionate, I would highly recommend him for any orthopedic procedures. He was also very professional and explained things in a way that could be easily understood. I will need continued care for my knee and I’m extremely pleased that he will be my physician!
Dr. Fish and Matt are an amazing team! I have had both hips replaced in 2 yrs and would do it 10 more times. The recovery is based on you but they have an great system to do follow up check ins and are available for questions most anytime by messaging. Great place for most any joint and back issues. Would recommend 10 out of 10!
I appreciate not feeling rushed. You let me tell my story of what was going on. This is awesome considering this was the first time I saw you.
Thank so much
As always he’s very compassionate, and thorough! This wasn’t my first seeing him for my hip and walked out of the office, knowing that I got very quality care!
This place is only place I will go to! The Dr’s I go to are amazing, they sit there and explain everything to you! I feel so comfortable! The reception staff are friendly and nursing staff are comfortable to talk too! That why I stay Capitol Orthopedics!
Dr. Jacobson was thorough and patient. He listened attentively and answered my questions in easy to understand language. I have the fullest confidence in his judgment and abilities.
I had my foot out looked at by another doctor and was given antibiotics. At capital and with his doctor After explainingThe symptoms
And a couple x-rays lead to Correct diagnosis then remedies that WORKED!
thank you so much Doctor for all your help the pain is relieved
Dr. Lee is very professional, personable, & speaks in “laymen’s terms.” The staff, x-ray techs, etc. were all in sync & seemed to like their workplace & working together. I will see Dr. Lee again, if necessary…10/10 recommend.
Received a right knee and right hip injection. Both the PA and Dr. Nguyen were amazing! The explanations and expectations were realistic. Pain relief was faster than I thought it would be. Highly recommend Capitol Orthopedics.
Doctor Jacobson understands his patients goals and recommends treatment ans solutions that fit those goals. As an international master water polo athlete the ability to remain active during injury downtime is critical to long term success. …
I was very impressed with the doctor. He was friendly yet professional and spent a good deal of time addressing my issues and treatment.
All the staff made me feel comfortable. My visit was a pleasant experience.
I met with Brian for my upcoming hip replacement pre surgical evaluation. It wasn’t our first rodeo (have had knee replaced) so we got right down to business. He ask of my concerns and explained what Dr Fish would be doing the day of …

Excellent care! Very personable and attentive. Surgery went well: follow-ups all great; even billing was done well. And my insurance can be a nightmare, so that’s saying a lot. I love that I don’t feel like a number here.
I had a total knee replacement done almost 3 weeks ago by Dr. Jacobson. It was done as an outpatient surgery, which did make me nervous. I am not going to say that it hasn’t been painful, as expected, but I feel it is going very well. My …
