Dr. Ronald Wayne Hanson JR.

I had a cervical stem cell procedure with Dr. Ron Hanson that permanently injured me and now I am unable to live a normal life. Living is now torture with how much pain I'm in and its only gotten worse as time goes on. I can barely move my head and when I do it sounds like its tearing and it never stops spasming, never ever stops, its torture. This procedure took my life away from me, things were going good in my life and I just wanted to heal some chronic pain but now I'm in infinitely worse pain and I've lost everything meaningful to my life because of this procedure.

It's taken me so long to write this review because I am so traumatized by what I was put through by this man. In August my mom and I went to see Dr. Hanson each for a Stellate Ganglion Block for PTSD. He scheduled us on the same day, back to back. After my mother's injection, he let her stay with me for my procedure. It's worth mentioning that no vitals were taken at any point in his office. Immediately after the needle was in my neck, he injected vascularly, meaning the Bupivacaine was improperly placed which led to an extremely violent seizure and could have easily caused cardiac collapse. It's miraculous that it didn't. As I was seizing he stood by, frozen, doing absolutely nothing but staring at me. After about 10 minutes of seizing and unconsiousness, his nurse finally called 911 after my mom had begged the entire time for him to do so. An injection of lipids would have reversed the damage, which I later learned he had on hand, but chose not to administer. He came with me to the ER, where he very carefully manipulated the situation, while I was too vulnerable to properly advocate for myself. He did not explain any of this to me or any of the ER doctors or nurses, and even tried to ply us with a trip to get ice cream afterward, as if I had not very nearly just lost my life. I can no longer work and my mother and I are vastly more traumatized than we were when we went to see him. My mother and I have sent him countless texts and emails, all of which he has blatantly ignored. I worked the front lines of COVID in New York City and that trauma pales in comparison to what he has done to us. This man has absolutely no business practicing medicine and I would urge any and everyone to run far away from this disturbed psychopath. My email address is sophieskroads@gmail.com, please feel free to reach out for any reason.

This doctor is dangerously narcissistic and just plain condescending. Anyone considering treatment with Dr. Hanson or OthoCure should read this first: https://bmp.hlb.state.mn.us/disc/HANSON,%20Ronald%20W%20(PY49997)/HANSON,%20Ronald%20W%203-13-21.pdf

Fantastic. Most likely the thought case Dr.Ron has ever had to deal with. My healing is a long haul and it’s like having a brother who happens to be a medical genius.

I had a cervical stem cell procedure with Dr. Ron Hanson and he permanently injured me in a way that has taken away my ability to live a normal life. I have spasms in my neck that never stop and I can barely move my head now. The pain never goes away and nothing has been able to undo the damage that Dr. Ron Hanson did to me. My life is just suffering now.

I had a cervical hydrodissection with Dr. Ron Hanson in August 2018 and it has left me permanently injured in terrible pain. Dr. Hanson hit something in my neck that felt like I was struck by lightning and caused my neck and right arm to spasm, my neck has not stopped spasming since that injection and I can barely turn my neck now. Everything is far worse than it was before the procedure and with new problems I never had. Dr. Hanson also tried blaming me for the procedure not going well. This procedure has taken my life away and left me unable to do things I used to do because I'm in too much pain. I made a video telling the full story of my experience at Orthocure on youtube "Cervical Hydrodissection Injections at Orthocure Permanently Injured Me (Patient Review)"

For 3 months I struggled with severe knee pain after a snowboarding injury. 4 days after injections in my knee feels just as it did prior to the injury; 100%! Thank you Dr. Hanson!

I tore a meniscus 3 years ago. Rather than cut out the tear, Dr Hanson took stem cells out of my bone marrow and injected them into that knee. The procedure was June 19 and I was playing tennis and running on the tread mill on Sept 1st. I have been happy with improving my tennis game since then. The same symptoms that preceded my old tear, started in the other knee. Rather than do what I did last time, the advice from Dr Hanson was not to keep aggravating it, and do a PRP procedure on this formerly "good" knee. Thanks to the support and his understanding that I want to get back on the tennis court, I am here in a more preventative mode. My goal is to never need a knee replacement and to play tennis!

Dr Hanson provided hope , and brought his vast knowledge and experience to the long term issues, that no one else was able to help with . We feel truly Blessed to have found Dr. Hanson ..

Excellent

extremely helpful

I've had multiple procedures with Dr. Hanson, and all have been successful. He and his team are great to work with, always explain everything and their treatments have helped me to avoid surgery; which is awesome.

It's been a good experience working with Dr. Hanson and staff. Services have been effective for PRP and also better managing stress. He has been generous and has taken the time to truly work with me and my family. I am happy with and grateful for my results and overall experience.

Dr Hanson listened to my description of my pain and after an exam was able to determine the procedure I would need. Everything was explained clearly to me and the procedure went well. I am thrilled with my progress at 6 weeks post procedure. I have been able to slowly add back some activities and have limited pain. I am very hopeful this procedure will allow me to bypass knee surgery!!! My knee feels stronger everyday.

results have varied from good to excellent; procedures have recovered between 50-85% of healthy joint use. I'm in my 60s, however, and have to accept that fully restored use is unlikely

Dr Hanson was truly concerned about my pain and eliminating it!! Genuinely concerned! Makes going to the doctor a pleasant experience! Thank you Dr Hanson!

Prior to seeing Dr. Ron, I was unable to function physically. Just to make a simple breakfast of bacon, fried eggs and toast was more than I could do without taking a break, then I had to lay flat on my back to eat. This was due to severe lower back pain. After talking with Dr. Ron, I made an appointment to have some stem cell injections as he said he could help me. I had the procedure done and found that in just a month later I was able to make a meal and eat sitting at the table!! As the pain was getting less and less, I was able to do more and more with shorter breaks in between. Now, 9 months later, I find it is still improving and I am able to do more and more with little to none breaks. Everyone at Dr. Hanson's office is very friendly, knowledgeable and is a pleasure to revisit.

I highly recommend Dr. Hanson. I had my first stem cell treatment for a badly torn meniscus and ACL 7 years ago at Rons clinic in Colorado. I consider that procedure to be 100% successful. I went on to enjoy years of active pain free living including cycling, mogul skiing, intense windsurfing and several skate skiing marathons. When I developed additional knee injuries in 2018 I was thrilled to find out Dr. Hanson relocated from Colorado to within 5 minutes of my home in Minneapolis. Dr. Hanson is a highly skilled, caring physician at the forefront of his profession. The individualized personal care I received from Dr. Ron and his staff is unparalleled. I have no doubt that I received the most advanced stem cell treatments for my knees possible and that I am on the road to recovery. It's only been a few months and my knees are much more stable and relatively pain free. Why see any other practitioner when the most skilled and progressive talent is available through Dr. Hanson.

I ruptured my right achilles tendon in 2008. I've had several flares up that were exceptionally painful. One such flare caused me to have an infection that took several anti-biotics to clear up. Since finding Dr. Hanson we have had two appointments thus far and the results are encouraging! The fibers are straightening out and becoming better organized!

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in November of 2017 that effected my neck terribly. I was born with a genetic disorder in my neck that I was unaware before. To fix my issues Dr. Hanson performed very precise healing injections under xray and ultrasound equipment guidance. I am able turn my head normally without pain! My procedures were performed in the summer of 2018. I wish I would have found him sooner.

Before this, she struggled so much with ligament laxity that she got injured constantly. The procedures have allowed her to heal soft tissue after a car accident that had failed to heal for 4 years, and her quality of life is much improved. She can once again sit, stand, walk, and bike after years of spending most of her time in bed. Dr. Hanson is a caring and compassionate human being, and also an amazing doctor, exact in his formulas, protocols, and site applications. Angie, Haley, and Andrea are incredible as well. Would highly recommend.

Dr Ron Hanson is the premier doctor in the field of Regenerative Therapies. I suffered for 30 years and tried everything possible to alleviate severe pain from multiple cervical issues. Nothing worked until I met Dr Ron and he was willing to work with my complex challenges. He was able to free me from a life of 3 severe headaches a week to none at all today! I lead an active lifestyle now and am eternally grateful for all he has done for me. I highly recommend him!

For the first time I felt like a doctor was actively listening to my concerns and addressed 100% of them.

Dr Hanson explained in detail every step of the procedure before and during the treatment. The after care and follow up treatment was awesome and professionally done.

I admire Dr. Hanson's beliefs & outlook on his procedures. He really is involved with working with each person & his/her afflictions. He has enormous knowledge to share.

He was professional and knowledgeable on FQT.

I have my life back because I received the care my body needed. My broken shoulder and rotator cuff tendons were torn as well as my bicep. The stem cell procedures which included my neck and upper spine have returned my shoulder to full function. My body regrew its structures with Dr. Hanson's help. After four years of Lyme invading my hip and knee, I also developed structural weaknesses in my lower back, hip, and knees. Again, a wholistic approach to the entire structural issues resulted in increased strength, mobility, and endurance. I'm still working on this area and am more confident each day that this will improve with time. I have learned to trust my body to heal and to surround myself with the incredible team of care specialists that Dr. Hanson relies upon to create the conditions for total body healing. This takes time and trust in the power of your body to heal itself when the conditions for repair are brought together appropriately. I would highly recommend Dr. Hanson.

I had traveled to Chicago, FL, and CA in search of a regenerative medicine practitioner. Little did I know that the best one was in my own backyard (relatively speaking). I had had many types of prolotherapy and PRP injections for my cervical instability, but nothing compared to just ONE of Dr. Hanson's treatments. Go see him! You will not regret it!

Came to see Dr. Hanson for multiple tendon issues, tears & degeneration, caused mostly due to running. One problem had been ongoing for over 20 years, had seen multiple doctors, and none where able to diagnose the problem, let alone offer a treatment. Dr. Hanson's ability to find the root of problems via ultrasound is amazing. He also provides state-of-the-art regenerative treatments which work. Am now back to running marathons and sometimes even ultras.

Came to see Dr. Hanson for multiple tendon issues, tears and degeneration, caused mostly from running for years. Saw multiple doctors over the years for one particular issue, but was never properly diagnosed, let alone fixed. Dr. Hanson has an amazing ability to diagnose via ultrasound and using his knowledge of how the body moves, can get to the root of the problem. He offers state-of-the-art regenerative treatments which have got me back to running ultras. I'm very pleased.

Compassionate. Unlike any other doctor. Spends hours with you getting to know you and your situation. He addresses the whole body, not just parts and then he treats the whole body. He’s a partner in your health - so you have to be willing to put forth your own effort to heal before, during and after he treats you. I’ve been blessed to be able to receive care from him and look forward to the healing that is happening and in my future.

Already have Highly recommended many family and friends! In fact my mom wants to meet him, lol-Highly recommendation for sure:)

I tried many Drs he is the best how treated me well and cure my shoulder

FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!!! I dont even know where to begin. Dr. Hanson and his team are the most compassionate and caring group I have worked with. From the very first conversation, Dr. Hanson took all the time I needed to answer every single question. Scheduling was a breeze and the office is so calming, and peaceful. My 18 year old daughter has had some issues that he was able to explain in detail. This made us both very comfortable. THANK YOU Dr. Hanson and staff!

Dr. Hanson is an amazing, caring doctor who was able to diagnose issues that I had been dealing with for years. I went to four or five other doctors before going to Dr. Hanson. All of them misdiagnosed the problem. As a result, the performed treatments that had nothing to do with my condition. Dr. Hanson diagnosed the issue correctly and was then able to treat it correctly!

Dr. Ron Hanson performed a stem cell procedure on both of my knees while working at the Centeno Schultz Clinic. During the procedure I was put under anesthesia and was told later by my wife that they found a foreign body in my knee and halted the procedure. When I returned the next day to ask him questions at first he refused to speak to me. When I was finally able to track him down he literally told me I don't have time for this. I was extremely disappointed with my service under his care.
