Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

An Active Life Returned
I have nothing but the highest regard for Dr. Krishnaney. I contacted him for his valuable second opinion since I was not getting appropriate care here in Rochester, New York. My records were forwarded to him and we had an in-depth review of my case, during which time he offered a direct solution to my lumbar problems which had gone untreated for many months. He was easy to talk to and explained his suggested procedure in terms I could understand. It was not until the day before my surgery that I directly conferred with Dr. Krishnaney. I immediately felt his compassion and empathy. Surgery went as planned and I was hospitalized only for 2 days…followed by the prescribed physical therapy. I am convinced that had my local doctors operated, I would have had complications and a slow recovery. Dr. Krishnaney give me back my life!

I met with Dr. Krishnany for a consultation regarding the lower back, leg, and buttock area pain and problems that I have had for over 13 years. He was well prepared for my visit as he had already reviewed my medical history, and his attention to details as I explained to him everything, he was very thorough explaining how he could help relieve my pain by suggesting having surgery on my L-2 through S-1 Ilium. He suggested a Spinal Fusion procedure, and explained how this procedure would be the best way to achieve the pain relief I have been hoping for. His understanding of my fears he made me feel very comfortable which helped me make the decision to have the procedure done. His entire support team was very professional, courteous, and available if I needed them at any time. After my surgery he made several follow up visits with me in my hospital room making sure to ask how I was feeling, and took the extra time to explain every question my wife and I had, which put my wife at ease.

I'm 7 days post op. I had a spinal fusion L3-S1. I can already feel and see a difference. I'm not really sure Dr. Krishnaney realizes how amazing he truly is. Physically my appearance is outstanding just after 7 days!!! Mentally I have my self esteem back. He's given me a better quality of life. Yes, I'm still in some pain but each day gets better. It all feels worth it when I look into the mirror. I can lay on my back and sides! I haven't slept laying down in months!!!! I thank you so very much
