Always have had a great experience

Andrea gave my daughter an extremely thorough exam. She asked questions my daughter could answer and had her do a bunch of different exercises to see where her pain was coming from. So thankful we had her to exam my daughter's pain in her knees.

Fantastic I was able to get in right away to get help with a knee injury. Andrea was great she helped me to know what the problem was and how to correct it.

It was my first visit with this provider, and I was very satisfied! She actually was person that came and took me to my room for exam etc. it was such a nice and surprising change to have my provider be first experience for this visit. She was so easy to talk with I felt very informed and like she genuinely cared about me.

Andrea, along with her assistant, were fantastic. They were thorough, efficient, empathic and very kind, not rushed at all. They communicated with me extremely well and answered all my questions.

Andrea Wilson is an asset to Gunderson. Very knowledgeable, succinct in her explanations, and experienced.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/6/2026
Andrea Wilson is a dreamboat of an orthopedic specialist! She attended to my physical issue and was so wonderfully positive about my outcome. I left the appointment feeling a lot better than when I went in, and we didn't really do anything directly theraputic in this visit. I have a long-term understanding of what I must do and will experience in my recovery.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/5/2026
Andrea is the best! Even though we had to wait slightly longer than usual for an appointment it was worth it. We always get a solid diagnosis and treatment plan. It may not be what we want to hear but she is always thinking what is in the long term interest of her patients and their ability to stay active doing what they love.

Andrea was so very kind-she knew i was in extreme pain. I left the clinic feeling like I was going to get my life back. I can't tell you how grateful I am Andrea is taking care of me. How important Andrea is to the Decorah Gundersen clinic. Andrea makes Gundersen the great place it has become. Keep up the great work.

Absolutely exceptional

I was seeing a new provider. I found her to be kind, welcoming and interested in my situation. She pulled up previous x-rays and explained what she saw. I was a bit unhappy when checking in, I was given a questionnaire. It all in MyChart so I felt that it was unnecessary. Sometimes when you go to the Dr. they expect the patient to ask questions but we don't know what to ask. I was given a lot of information about my knee that helped me know more about my arthritis. I was very pleased with this provider and appointment. Thank you!

Really like Andrea. She's very personable.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/19/2026
Andrea makes time to listen, explain and ensure we know "what's what!" I may be the one experiencing the pain, the medical provider (Andrea in this case) is the expert I need to explain what's going on with the body. It is a peace-of-mind and greatly appreciated.

Andrea is the best!!

Andrea Wilson was great and will see her again when the need arises!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/27/2026
Andrea Wilson gave me great hints to make this experience with a cast on my arm go a little easier. She told me to raise the arm if I had swelling and explained the pains I may have so I wouldn't worry about anything new. Extremely helpful. Also very clear and thorough in her explanations.

Very good
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/7/2026
Andrea Wilson is excellent at understanding the right questions to ask to get to the root of the problem and is very good at explaining the treatment options once the diagnosis is determined.

Making a painful shot definitely not seem so bad. Great Lady!

I had a very good experience with Andrea and I totally trust her. She's very knowledgeable and thank you.

It was way too long of wait in that small office, over 45 minutes
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/7/2026
It was my second visit in a row that I had an appointment for 9:45 AM and it was 10:30 am before I saw Andrea. I know she is very thorough with her patients and I respect her for that, I'm just wondering if she has to see too many patients in the day and that causes her to get delayed? She's a great PA and I respect her a lot.

I have always had a great experience with Gundersen

Andrea Wilson is the BEST at injecting knees. I've had the most positive results from her procedure over that of other providers.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/14/2026
My experience was amazing, I got in right away, Andrea explained what was going on and listened to me. It was the most amazing experience I have had
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/12/2026
Andrea is a family favorite. She has always spoken to us with confidence and care. Stressing the importance and reasons for her restrictions and guidance. My children have always been spoken to in age appropriate ways and they truly understand their injuries . We are so blessed to have her as part of the Decorah Team!

Everyone was great. And I was so happy to get in as soon as I did.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/8/2026
My care provided by dr wilson was superior especially in comparison to care I was provided in another state where my injury occurred.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/21/2026
Andrea was very helpful but she has always done a great job. I was unsure why orthopedic surgeons did not want to operate (they had just left a message, stating I was not a candidate for surgery). She explained that the knee was not quite bad enough yet to be considered for surgery and explained why.

Andrea is Awesome!

Andrea Wilson is very professional, knowledgeable, and informative. She has assisted me in healing up my right shoulder and now is working on my left knee (too many birthdays, on my part). She revealed how to react to swelling and pain very well (Pain is good, and extreme pain is extremely good. USMC proverb). Give Andrea a raise.

I have been well taken care of the medical staff

Andrea Wilson is a phenomenal Orthopedic PA. She knows her stuff. She can explain it in terms that are meaningful for patients. She is reassuring and compassionate. I am so grateful to have her here in Decorah when I need orthopedic care. She is a gift to your clinic and I hope you take good care of her.

Really enjoyed my appt with Andrea Wilson. I feel like she is and will be a great collaborator for addressing my issues
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/21/2026
Yeah, I would just like to say that Andrea Wilson was very, very thorough. I couldn't say enough good about her in my checkup that I had there as far as her explaining everything so very thoroughly as far as understanding what I had going on with a knee. And anyway, I'm going to definitely keep her as any orthopedic issues that come up. So I couldn't have been happier with the care and treatment I got there. Thank you.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/17/2026
Andrea was phenomenal. Clear description of the issues I'm facing. Generated alternatives with reasons to consider for each one. Listened carefully to my concerns. Great visit. Clear plan for moving forward.

I was extremely happy with my visit with Andrea recently. She is just a top-notch provider. Thank you.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 11/29/2025
Nothing more to say. You asked questions that required numerical responses. Had you initially asked questions requesting word responses, I might have responded accordingly. You got what you asked for. I'm worn out and have no more to add on this Thanksgiving night.

Exceptional care.Thank you.

I never felt so talked down to by any medical person before. Received her opinion only with no room for mine.
