About

Philosophy of Care

I believe that every patient is an individual with a unique set of symptoms, goals and concerns. Careful communication and attention to detail are essential at every visit. My treatment plans include focused time for patient education, personalized therapy, and when necessary, the latest and least invasive surgical techniques. I want my patients to feel engaged as the central component of the team as we work together to restore or improve upon their function.

Wait time 1 hour, accident on the freeway. Everyone else was late, so I had to wait.

I'm always treated with the utmost respect! I appreciate that so much!

03/15/2023

03/10/2023

He was oK, it was the combination of the surgical team communications and the scheduler at this facility that made things very difficult

03/05/2023

Great approach

11/20/2022

Christine makes things much easier.

11/13/2022

Sent me for MRI, appt [date], follow up with doc is [date]. TOO LONG to wait. Had hip replacement with the practice in [date], spouse had knee replacement surgery [date]. Reconsidering go-to ortho after this recent experience.

10/28/2022

It is very anxiety provoking to pay for services for someone who is so unrealistic and unprofessional

10/25/2022

My provider has worked hard to get me the best care possible, it is a work related injury and the push back from work-comp has been horrible and the provide and staff has work hard in assisting me in navagating these issues, still hoping for the best issues.

09/16/2022

The provider may have been polite, send time with me, but didn’t help me at all. May that should be one of your questions.

08/26/2022

Very happy

08/13/2022

Bizarre

08/02/2022

Great dr., great surgeon.

08/01/2022

He was knowledgeable and pleasantly professional and to the point. He explained what was going to happen during both the surgery and the after care.

08/01/2022

Excellent.

07/29/2022

I felt like the dr. was competent, but wasn't willing to discuss alternatives to his choice of treatment. Surgery or nothing. I am getting a 2nd opinion - because he may be right!

06/29/2022

Everything was as expected/needed.

06/17/2022

PT and dr. did a great job and both spent quite a bit of time.

06/17/2022

Everything was amazing w/*Dr. Jurgensmeier. He's an excellent surgeon! JCOE was very helpful in orchestrating my recovery.

*Dr. Jurgensmeier is a great doctor. I also like his assistant *Grant.

05/25/2022

The doctor & his staff were outstanding!

05/21/2022

Dr Jurgensmeier was totally informative. He was pleasant, explained my problem, reviewed my X-rays with me, informed me of my options for treatment & presented me with an action plan for treatment. He has a pleasant personality & I felt comfortable with him. I look forward to working with him for my recovery

05/17/2022

Knowledgeable; info and recommendations very clear. Most helpful appointment!

05/16/2022

Severe problem with office mgr. [name] trying to receive appt. for knee problems - Requested/demanded 2 year old MRI discs for my knee (provided written reports were insufficient) provided in early March, but for no known reason she will not schedule appointments after referrals from my primary to treatment for my shoulder first, but this does not provide care for my knees - Torn all, torn meniscus, and missing/eroded cartilage causing bone on bone pain. Have tried to resolve thru patient advocate, [name], but no resolution here. WHY??? [name]

05/11/2022

Excellent experience.

05/03/2022

He was happy with the progress I made.

04/26/2022

First class. 'top notch' professional.

Na

04/12/2022

Wonderful.

04/11/2022

Health care providers were excellent.

04/11/2022

Provider had a very dry, matter of fact delivery. Not much of a bedside manner. Seemed cold.

04/10/2022

Coming from an area that is basically a medical desert the medical attention I received here was phenomenal, with the follow up and MyChart for my reference.

04/01/2022

Room nurse (*Mark?) seemed unsure of questions to ask. We had to go over questions multiple times. Physical Therapist *Jo Jo came in to access my shoulder movements and was very thorough and competent. She was available to answer any questions I had.

03/22/2022

Everyone was very professional and friendly.

03/22/2022

I wish there had been more time for questions.

03/22/2022

Outstanding experience

03/22/2022

Good but rushed.

03/22/2022

The Physician came in and said he had received a referral from Dr -- and kept talking, when he stopped I said, I don't know Dr. ---! He had not looked at My chart, and did not know my name or who I was! He tried to cover and he lost me right there! I traveled over 2 hours, can't walk very well, and I am in a lot of pain! I had my leg surgically ruined by a surgeon and I was there to see if he could give me hope at living my life in a better condition! I was not impressed! I did tell l him I thought something might be wrong and my husband asked if he could have an xray taken, he said yes but it didn't happen! I was very upset and cried all the way home! Why can't they care more, this is my life we are talking about! When will someone REALLY CARE ABOUT ME!

02/25/2022

*Dr. Jurgensmeier is outstanding in surgery and personal manner patient care.

02/17/2022

Even though doctor was busy and running behind he didn't leave the room until I had no more questions or concerns.

02/09/2022

*Dr. J. is very knowledgeable, I feel fortunate to have him as my dr.

01/18/2022

Very informative.

01/18/2022

Caring, professional.

12/26/2021

Great doc., spent ample time with me. PT *Jo was super helpful.

11/06/2021

My physician (*Dr. Jurgensmeier) explained the results of my MRI for a shoulder problem and following surgery to repair - he was very clear, understanding, and thorough. Best I ever experienced for _____ surgery. My wife had... me and she dr. felt we had received the best care and advice. We were both very comfortable... surgery.

11/04/2021

*Dr. Jurgensmeier is great! It would be helpful to have a nurse navigator for after surgery. I felt very along in the recovery process and it would be nice to have a go-to person for questions.

11/02/2021

The doctor, nurses & staff were extremely efficient & kind.

10/28/2021

When I first met *Dr. 'J.' I had not been using my shoulder sling. I believe this did please *Dr. J. and started us off on the wrong foot. My second appointment went well. He did a 'great' job.

10/26/2021

I was impressed dr. had my MRI results on his screen and explained them to me. He is very good at giving 'shots' to the knee - The cortisone injection has made my life with a 'bum' knee easier to live with - Thank you.

10/04/2021

One of the best experiences I've ever had. *Jo Jo Burnell did a very extensive history & *Dr. Jurgensmeier did the most comprehensive exam I've ever had. They fully explained my options.

09/27/2021

Complete exam of shoulder w/x-rays - Talked about therapy. Given advice on muscle pain & exercises - Very personable.

09/22/2021

Friendly, knowledge, spent appropriate time.

07/14/2021

Superb provider and staff!

06/01/2021

It was extremely impersonal and I did not feel respected, nor was time taken by surgeon to prepare me for what to expect once I got home. I felt like a machine in need of repair, rather than a person in need of care. There have been no follow-up calls to check on me.
