I Had Meniscus and ACL Surgery and I Was Walking Without Crutches 13 Days Later

“Wow. Unbelievable experience. I wish I could give more stars. From the front office, to the assistants, to the scheduling, to the nurses (!!!), to Dr Raynor himself, phenomenal from start to finish. I had meniscus and ACL surgery and I was walking without crutches 13 days later (your mileage may vary of course, but still, unbelievable). Even more telling of Dr Raynor's skill as a surgeon is that I have not taken a single pain pill since surgery, and NOT because I have a high pain threshold (I don't!), but because I have quite literally had ZERO pain or discomfort, even after beginning physical therapy. Again, and obviously, your mileage may vary, but I couldn't have dreamt a better outcome coming out of this surgery at fifty years old. Kudos to the doctor and whole staff - I'm definitely a raving fan.”

I Feel Like He Truly Gave Me My Life Back

“Dr. Raynor is the BEST orthopedic doctor! I saw 4 different orthopedics before finding Dr. Raynor and I am so glad I kept looking until I found the best! He has helped me to be able to walk pain-free and lifted my spirits after others said I would never run or walk stairs again. I’m 40! He took time to go over the details of my MRI and answered all of my (many) questions with patience and encouragement. At 40, my knees felt like I was 100 before I found this place. Don’t hesitate to see him if you need help with your knees. I feel like he truly gave me my life back. I am forever thankful and so are my kids and husband. :) Thank you, Dr. Raynor!

My Daughter Has a Knee She Can Depend on Again

“Dr. Raynor was the answer to our prayers. He is wonderful, and his support team is top notch as well. Thanks to him. My daughter has a knee she can depend on again. She had chronic dislocations for years. She is able to feel normal again. Cannot say enough good things about them all! Amazing!!”

Talked to Me About Getting Back to Those Things That Are Important to Me

“Search no more, you’ve found the right orthopedic doctor. Innovative, upbeat, positive, caring and an excellent surgeon. I had 2 docs say they’d never perform a root tear repair on me because of my age. (65) I was willing to put in the post op work and it was a success. He didn’t judge me by my chronological age but Rather talked to me about getting back to those things that are important to me...being active, enjoying my grandkids . His nurse, PA, front desk and business office get 5 stars from me too!”

I am fortunate that my family was able to seek out the best, which led me to Dr. Raynor's office.

“I don't even have the words to properly credit Dr. Raynor and his wonderful staff to the extent it is deserved, but I will certainly try. Leading up to surgery, Dr. Raynor and Chrissy worked with me and my family to discuss the best avenue for surgery and recovery. Every single visit was on time and through the entirety of my meetings with Dr. Raynor I felt heard and considered; every question, no matter how trivial, was answered in depth. In scrubs, a white coat and cowboy boots, Raynor sat down and patiently listened to my ramblings on. He and Chrissy sat with me through my fear and anxiety about the procedure. On the day of surgery, I was cared for and respected by the staff…As far as technique, Dr. Raynor's work was done meticulously and I haven't had any problems with the surgery. He is clearly a talented and knowledgable surgeon and doctor. Each pain and oddity I felt in my knee was met with immediate understanding and solution. I want to especially thank Chrissy for her attention to detail and the caring and honest nature in which she handled my case. She was my rock throughout and I feel so grateful and lucky to have worked with her. I did not take my injury lightly and am fortunate that my family was able to seek out the best, which led me to Dr. Raynor's office. There is no doubt in my mind that if I ever have another injury that I will promptly call Dr. Raynor. It's still spectacular to me how well the surgery went and how involved Dr. Raynor and Chrissy CHOSE to be throughout the entire process. Again, thank you all so much for giving me the opportunity to live an active lifestyle again. I am forever grateful and certainly keen to recommend anyone to Texas Orthopaedics."

We are so thrilled with my daughter's outcome and very grateful to Dr. Raynor and his team.

"Today was my college age daughter's 6 month follow up appt with Dr. Raynor and we couldn't be more pleased with the results and her progress. She had a complex knee surgery, MPFL reconstruction and tibial tubercle osteotomy, over Christmas break. We highly researched this difficult surgery, and finally found Dr. Raynor, after seeking second opinions, and talking with another well known knee specialist who praised Dr. Raynor's technique and abilities. From the initial evaluation, through surgery without any complications (Texas Institute for Surgery was top notch, great staff from nurses to PTs) to all the follow ups, Dr. Raynor has spent so much time educating and answering our questions, very thorough, good rapport with my daughter, and great bedside manner. Also, efficient, caring Chrissy Townsley, RN, who works with Dr. Raynor, has been a huge help overseeing the details, and so encouraging every step of the way. We are so thrilled with my daughter's outcome and very grateful to Dr. Raynor and his team."
