Dr. Byington is a great doctor! After dealing with some knee problems for almost 2 years...I switched ortho docs and came to Prairie ortho. In two visits, he has diagnosed me, has mapped out my recovery plan, and has given me 100% hope that I can get back to all the physical activity that I've been missing so much! Absolutely love this place and the care I've received so far.

Dr. Byington and staff are phenomenal! I fell into his office by luck. I broke my shoulder and my former orthopedic had recently retired. I scheduled with Dr. Byington and would never look back. He treated me with compassion, choices for treatment, and always put options out for discussion that were suited for my best interests! I just completed a total knee replacement yesterday, and am on top of the world. My severe bone on bone, arthritic knee is truly feeling great today. Outstanding doctor!

Dr. Byington and his team are very attentive to your needs and allow plenty of time to answer questions. I had two prior knee surgeries before seeing Dr. Byington and was in a lot of pain. My third surgery has been the smoothest recovery so far. I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Byington and his awesome team!
