Knee replacement surgery and after-care process has proceeded very well through today’s three-month check up. Dr. Holt and team have been outstanding clinically, caring and accommodating with patient questions and scheduling, and generally super. Delighted to have had their skills and care.
Awesome experience! Had an epidural steroid injection. Friends said it would be a painful experience…not so! The nurse was so compassionate & comforting. Young lady assisting dr. was so sweet. Dr. Ashraf came in, explained procedure step …
Totally unprofessional…

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Holt and now Dr. Miles. Everyone is very nice and informative. Getting my knees replaced by Dr. Holt was the best thing I ever did. Now Dr. Miles is working on my low back problems. Will recommend Columbia Orthopedic to anyone and everyone
Dr. Hinkebein and her nurse Jennifer are fantastic. I have learned that they will be leaving COG, what a loss!! I appreciate everything you two did with my case.
STAY FAR AWAY! MEDICAL FRAUD!
If I could leave -55 stars I definitely would. Dr. Hinklebein will charge you for treatments you didn’t receive and still claim that you received them! I have …
My appt was handled by a couple of very stellar medical professionals. I got all my questions answered, positive explanations, and a review at the end to ensure I was satisfied. Excellent, Dr Hammond, Bill, Stacy, and a nurse, but I did not get her name.
Every person we came in contact with was pleasant and professional. We were called back before our appointment time. Our wait time through each step was minimal. Dr. Tarbox was knowledgeable and explained the injury and process well.
This place is the real deal dont even consider anywhere else! I have had numerous surgeries there not to have surgery but because i was in desperate circumstances! …
Cant get anyone to answer the phone. I have been on hold 3 different times for at least 15 minutes each time if not longer. No one is returning my phone calls and one of the receptionist was very rude to me. I have been in excruciating pain and no one there seems to care. Ready to go to umc doctors.
Very professional and efficient, but most of all, patient friendly. They listen to you, explaining in plain english what is wrong, and give a treatment plan for you. I highly recommend, if you can, to make them your first orthopedic choice. …

My experience with COG today was very good. I have pain in my lower back making it difficult to function very well sometimes. The nurse and doctor explained everything before I was given an injection in the lower back. It was done without discomfort and I expect the relief to last for a good long while.
Had a post-surgical follow up with Dr. Kleiber’s partner, Amy today. I appreciate the transparency and detail she provided regarding my procedure. It was all the information I wanted to hear after surgery but was in no condition to retain it. 😁 From check-in to check-out, everything ran very smoothly for me. Thank you, COG! …
One of the best experiences I have had for medical services. Professional, caring, efficient and thorough. Dr Holt, Ray and his administrative staff could not have been more serving. Surgery for a hip replacement occurred at 2 pm and I …

Amy Kurtz is one of the most efficient people I have ever worked with. Jennifer gets you into the exam room quickly. Amy is extremely thorough. You never feel slighted, but she will still get you taken care of and back out in a matter of minutes.
Over the past few years all of my immediate family have been to the doctors at COG! We have been very pleased with our care at every step of the way! Dr. Thornburg has taken care of all of our sprains and strains and tendon issues …

While I dislike the robotic, factory-like atmosphere of this place, where we are lined up and made to come forward at the appropriate time, complete with flashing, vibrating devices like you get in restaurants, my overall experience as …
I have been a Patient at COG several times over the last 11 years. I am sure there are other very good Doctors in the area but I always find myself going back to COG.

2016 Dr. Tarbox repaired my left rotator cuff and bicep tendon. I was back to work (construction) in about three months. Nearly four years later and it still works great. All the physicians and staff are awesome. Currently, I am being …
It would be really great if clinics and health care services would get EVERYTHING together. What is the purpose of answering the 50 – 100 questions if you don’t take the version of health insurance that your customer holds? We have waited …
Dr. Monroe was great at distraction and quick and effective with the stick and injection. Little mix up with the appointment time but insurance issues made changes necessary and the line was not long for waiting. Got right in and out. Thank you
This was the best experience I have ever had. They were very professional and very nice. We were in and out in an hour. Dr. Oliver was very thorough and answered all my question and fixed my foot. I would highly recommend him to anyone …
Best people and practices. Top-notch care. My wife had 2 different SI joint fusions last year, and I just had my first of 2 knee replacements. Cannot say enough of the professional and friendly care we have received.
I have to say, I had Dr Tarbox ten years ago and was treated with respect, humour and intelligence. Having had this great experience, I thought I’d look for a doctor to help me with a new situation, my hand. Well… Dr. Jones came in …
I want to take this opportunity to give a shout out, so to speak, to Jeff & Kim who work in Dr. Mile’s office. Kim does a wonderful job getting all your pre-op appointments & papers organized. She is just an asset to the office. …

Everyone was very friendly. I was checked in quickly, and called back before my scheduled time. Nursing and radiology staff were very professional and friendly. Dr. Holt is the BEST!! I can’t say enough good things about him!

Dr. Jenkins was amazing. He was caring and thorough. He is getting me the help I need for my pain and made convenient arrangements for therapy close to home.

Dr. Aleto was very thorough and listened well. He spent time to develop a plan to resolve my issues. I am very impressed and his reputation that preceded him was spot on.
No one ever wants to end up in the hospital but let me tell you.. I never dread coming to an appointment at the Columbia Orthopedic Group. Dr. Jenkins always makes me feel extremely welcome. He’s honest and upfront with me. He gives it to me straight which I appreciate. I would encourage everyone to give this hospital a try.
Dr Sahota visit was very assuring that I was healing as expected. I love his and all of the staff’s professional attitudes and respect toward me. They got me in on time and Dr. Sahota instructed me on what I needed to continue to do.
I saw two different Drs while there. The second, Dr Sahota was fairly professional even after I cried because of the pain. He gave me time to collect myself and proceeded to explain things. The first Dr I saw is the reason I was in so much …

Dr. Thornberg was very through, kind, very knowledgeable, and gave a straightforward diagnosis. He spent good patient time and listened to my concerns and addressed each of them with interest. Also, the wait time was minimal which I was grateful . The nurse was also very attentive and helpful.
Great bunch of Drs and staff. I had four surgeries here, carpal tunnel on each wrist and rotator cuff on both shoulders. No problem of any kind. I highly recommend the Columbia Orthopedic Group if you are looking for a Dr. Thanks to the two Drs and thanks to the staff for an excellent job.

Dr. Jenkins and his staff were miracle makers in my life along with God Almighty. I was given a very bleak outcome from other doctors. My pain was excruciating. I am a 71 year old woman with a number of health issues. The care I received …
Very pleasant experience. Very short wait. Nurse was especially friendly and efficient. X-ray lady had obviously done this many times – she did it fast and well. Knowledgeable physician did his thing and I was out in less than 30 minutes. Since the cast is kinda buried in all the insurance paperwork, I am a happy camper
My experience with this group has been excellent. They are very caring and knowledgeable people. I had 2 surgeries 9/27/21 and 9/29/21 which was very successful. I had absolutely no pain what so ever. Dr. Jenkins and Jena and Shana are the best. I recommend this group to anyone who needs spine care.
Dr. T. Yehyawi has been great with treatment and knee surgery over the past few months. He treats his patients like family and is very thorough in explaining what’s going on and the treatment plan. He and his staff are excellent!!
From the minute you arrive to check in– from the receptionist, to the MRI techs, to the physician. I really have nothing positive to say about this place! I guess they do no staff training on customer service and everyone there acts like …
Dr. Alan Anz MD & his team helped me gain a new lease on life, having undergone a Right TKA surgery in June 2022. I am so appreciative of their expertise, care, and support throughout this process.

I went to a spine surgeon in Jefferson City at St. Mary’s hospital.
It was awful! I try not to complain about doctors but I felt a horrible feeling with this doctor. He was rude and mean! He spent 5 min with me, didn’t allow me …
Professional who took the time to explain and alleviate any concerns I had. Right choice to seek a second opinion and very satisfied with my appointment. Thumbs up
Excellent doctor- took good history, did physical exam, took X-rays and then explained what I had and how to treat it! I will be back if I need anything!
We love COG! Dr Smith and Dr Farmer are both amazing! They spend the time with us that is needed and we never feel rushed or pushed through without having all questions/concerns addressed. The entire staff is always kind and patient. This group is top notch!
Always good! The appointment specialists are always kind, helpful. They often remember my name and are willing to listen to me talk about things with me.
This is the most efficient doctors office I’ve been to, and everyone I met was very friendly, Dr Thornburg was very professional and helpful explaining my condition
They were so fast and friendly. I had completed all of the paperwork online and when I got there I was in and out of the Doctor’s office before my actual appointment time.
Dr. Holt, Ray, and the staff of COG always provide professional, thorough and caring medical services. After two successful hip replacements without any problems, I consider my return to an active lifestyle a miracle.
Dr. Thornburg took my appointment without another doctors referral and was very welcoming. He showed a model to help visualize what he was referring to and provided a great explanation while describing why I could have my issue.
I would recommend Dr. P Smith and Columbia Orthopedic Group to anyone. Dr. Smith is great at his craft, easy to talk to and communicates in a way that is understandable. Plus, has great results.
Very short waiting time. Dr. Holt was prompt in seeing me I had X-rays on both knees they both have done remarkable well. I’ve had no issues since the operations
My daughter broke her ankle in 3 places last winter. Boone Hospital performed her first surgery, the Dr made a mistake so COG had to request a second surgery. After a couple of visits, not even beginning her healing, they stopped seeing …
We saw Dr. Anz and visited with him for a few minutes. He was pleased with my improvement since the surgery three weeks ago.
I am very happy as well. I highly recommend Dr. Anz to anyone thinking of having a knee replacement.
He was nice to talk. Very understanding and caring. But when he goes out to check something and then never comes back to talk to you wasn’t very nice. I would go back to see Dr. Farmer
I am a huge fan of Dr Holt & his assistant Ray. The did my hip about a decade ago and are the consummate professionals. I could not recommend them more highly and would not hesitate to use (nor refer) them for any future orthopedic surgical needs.
I had an appointment recently and when the doctor finally came in the waiting room the very first words he spoke to me was, “what is your problem?” I was a new patient and have been through 17 previous surgeries. I believe the X-rays and …
I just hit my one year anniversary of ACL reconstruction and meniscus root repair surgery with Dr. Patrick Smith at Columbia Orthopaedic Group, and I couldn’t be happier. Dr. Smith was fabulous to work with. He was very approachable, …

My mother had supposedly broken bone in her hand, so we were getting it checked out. Unfortunately, we were running a little late; aged people always need more time than a younger person would think. The intake process is Soviet-line slow, …
Columbia Ortho Group is excellent from beginning to end. All of the staff – Tara, Ray, Dr. Holt and the staff at the Lodge – fantastic, top notch people. They instill confidence, they are friendly and caring, and the whole operation runs like a “fine-tuned Swiss watch”! I am so very thankful for my experience.
Dr. Patrick Smith is awesome on all levels. He’s very thorough & knowledgeable in his field. Very pleased w the results from our procedures. He did my sons & my knee now. He shows compassion & very respectable man. I recommend Dr. Smith to everyone. Thank you for everything Dr. Smith
My husband was very pleased with his appointment. But wish there was a better outcome on the visit. It wasn’t the doctors fault but the insurance he has. The insurance company wouldn’t cover any of the injections that possibly could of helped.
This was my first time using their services and I had a great experience. Everyone was so friendly & professional. They are very thorough and take the time to evaluate you & explain the findings/diagnoses. I definitely feel comfortable returning for more services here.
Dr. Farmer was AWESOME. I was very anxious about my injection, but he put me right at ease with his humor, the shot didn’t hurt at all, and he actually made the appointment fun! He answered all the questions I had thoroughly and in an easy way to understand, and I would not hesitate to go back to him again.
I feel very privileged that I was able to have Dr. Holt do my knee replacement. He explained everything and was always very helpful with all questions and I feel I received wonderful care throughout my healing process. I only wish he would be around long enough to replace my other knee. Happy retirement!
Dr. Holt has changed my life for the better. I can do so much more than I used. I am so very thankful for this wonderful opportunity to live without pain. It’s a great place. I recommend it to everyone who asks about orthopedic surgery!

Dr. Hinkebein and her nurse Jennifer are fantastic. I have learned that they will be leaving COG, what a loss!! I appreciate everything you two did with my case.
STAY FAR AWAY! MEDICAL FRAUD!
If I could leave -55 stars I definitely would. Dr. Hinklebein will charge you for treatments you didn’t receive and still claim that you received them! I have …
My appt was handled by a couple of very stellar medical professionals. I got all my questions answered, positive explanations, and a review at the end to ensure I was satisfied. Excellent, Dr Hammond, Bill, Stacy, and a nurse, but I did not get her name.
Every person we came in contact with was pleasant and professional. We were called back before our appointment time. Our wait time through each step was minimal. Dr. Tarbox was knowledgeable and explained the injury and process well.
This place is the real deal dont even consider anywhere else! I have had numerous surgeries there not to have surgery but because i was in desperate circumstances! …
Cant get anyone to answer the phone. I have been on hold 3 different times for at least 15 minutes each time if not longer. No one is returning my phone calls and one of the receptionist was very rude to me. I have been in excruciating pain and no one there seems to care. Ready to go to umc doctors.
Very professional and efficient, but most of all, patient friendly. They listen to you, explaining in plain english what is wrong, and give a treatment plan for you. I highly recommend, if you can, to make them your first orthopedic choice. …

My experience with COG today was very good. I have pain in my lower back making it difficult to function very well sometimes. The nurse and doctor explained everything before I was given an injection in the lower back. It was done without discomfort and I expect the relief to last for a good long while.
Had a post-surgical follow up with Dr. Kleiber’s partner, Amy today. I appreciate the transparency and detail she provided regarding my procedure.

I have been a Patient at COG several times over the last 11 years. I am sure there are other very good Doctors in the area but I always find myself going back to COG.

Everyone was very friendly. I was checked in quickly, and called back before my scheduled time. Nursing and radiology staff were very professional and friendly. Dr. Holt is the BEST!! I can’t say enough good things about him!
