After having my left hip replaced several years ago, I've been putting off having my right hip replaced, despite the increasing pain and increasing disability to do normal daily tasks. Having now met with Dr. Eickmann, I feel much more confident about having this surgery performed. Dr. Eickmann listened to my concerns, discussed my previous experiences, and answered my questions fully, so I now feel confident and prepared to have my hip replacement. Dr. Eickmann answered all my questions with thorough explanations, and discussed all of my options, explaining and contrasting the potential surgical approaches available, thus helping me now feel fully confident that, despite my having osteoporosis, I can now look forward to this hip replacement having a positive outcome, and a shorter recovery period than my previous hip surgery. Working with Dr. EIckmann, I fully expect to be able to resume my normal activities and regain my life style. My brother and his wife have both had multiple surgeries performed by Dr. Eickmann, and they are thrilled to hear that I have chosen him as my hip surgeon.

Dr Eickman and his surgical team were amazing. The only pain I’ve really experienced from my full knee replacement has been therapeutically induced in the recovery process. The therapy group at OCC is equally awesome.

Dr. Eickmann was awesome. I went in to get my hips evaluated and learned that I had severe arthritis in both hips, but did not require surgery at this time. He also checked my knee that I had injured, and told me that it was stable and just bruised. Thank you very much Dr. Eickmann.

I had a left hip replacement with Dr. Eickman 6 weeks ago at Avista hospital. The surgery prep, surgery and post surgery were great. I am now walking miles and doing daily activity without pain and sleeping well again thanks to Dr. Eickmann and his amazing team. Also, my wife, sister in law and mother and law also had knee and hip replacements by Dr. Eickmann - all very successful. I highly recommend Dr. Eickmann.

Everyone in the office was very friendly. Dr Eickmann answered all of our questions and was able to explain my condition throughly. After spending the last two years believing that the fracture I have cannot be repaired, Dr Eickmann has given me hope that he can fix it. I’m looking forward to working with him and his staff.
