Time after time, Twila has placed her trust in Dr. Troy Pierce, and he's never let her down.

“Dr. Pierce and the nurses who work with him are amazing. I know I have been a bit of a challenge. I’ve had two rotator cuff surgeries on the same arm, and now a third injury, although thankfully not as serious this time. Still, every visit I’ve had has been met with kindness and respect.

Of course, I get the usual lecture about being more careful, but I do try. Sometimes things just happen. This latest injury was from falling on the ice. Through it all, Dr. Pierce and his team have been patient, supportive, and consistently excellent.”

Pumpkins, gratitude, and 30+ years of trust.

Every year, Don Simburger graciously gives back to local Bismarck medical practices to show his support and thanks for their care and dedication to the community. This month, Don, a longtime Bone & Joint Center patient, stopped by with a trailer full of pumpkins and squash for our staff to take home.

"I've been going to The Bone & Joint Center since 1990 and haven't looked to go anywhere else. These pumpkins are my way of giving back."

Thank you, Don, for making our day a little brighter!

Every month, Dr. Duncan Ackerman proudly provides care to communities beyond Bismarck. For Ben in Williston, that commitment has been life-changing.

“Dr. Ackerman and his team have been exceptional regarding my health needs. They truly care about their patients and go above and beyond to provide the best care possible.

The team that comes to Williston works tirelessly to ensure each and every patient gets the attention they deserve, even if it means staying longer than the allocated time. I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Ackerman and his team. They have made my quality of life much better.”

From football injury to baseball glory, Ben Watson's story is a testament to resilience, expert care, and the power of determination.

After suffering a severe football injury that included tears to his ACL, LCL, and meniscus, Ben turned to Dr. Timothy Juelson for surgery. Eleven months later, he returned to competition and helped lead Bismarck Legacy back to the state baseball tournament.

Watch his KFYR-TV Sports Spotlight:

Ben Watson's 100% was a huge factor in getting the Sabers back to the state tournament, and now he hopes to do the same with the Govs.
