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.

I had an appointment with Bob. I have been to this office many times and this was my 2nd time dealing with Bob. He is very condescending, dismissive, and rude. After this visit I will be going elsewhere

Stay as far away from this guy as possible. He replaced my right knee in January 2017. Told him from day one that something was wrong He kept telling me it was scar tissue. Two more surgeries later by him, and the pain was worse than ever. He wanted to do a revision but I was not going to let this guy touch me. Finally found a surgeon who would do a revision for me. I regained most of my movement and have no pain. New doctor told me that when he did the surgery that the part connected to my tibia came right off with his fingers. He also told me that it was a prototype knee replacement which I was never told by Kollmer. This guy should not be practicing. Stay away.

I suggest you go to ANY other orthopedic surgeon than him! I have been given the runaround for the past two years suffering in pain from a defective hip he kept saying was perfectly fine. Needless to say, I have now been left in a wheelchair for the rest of my life due to an infection he gave me during surgery. Because of this I can never have a replacement, and I must have my leg cut off so I can live. This man needs to lose his license and never practice again!!! My life is completely ruined!

If i had another orthopedic injury, i would find a way to run , not walk from this butcher. I would not recommend him to anyone. STAY AWAY!! He has left me in pain for the rest of my life from a simple knee replacement.

My experience with Dr Charles Kollmer, MD was very positive. He immediately knew I needed a MRI and had the experience to send me to get one even though my family Dr in New Smyrna Beach had said it was something else for months! :O( My husband also went to him for shoulder pain and had the fortunate luck of having no more pain after seeing him even without a operation. That was both our experiences. The staff was supper friendly and helpful. I waited 15 minutes my husband 10. Staff was helpful.

Saw the dr. initially but after that, only the Physician's Assistants. Results of outpatient procedure not successful. Followups not satisfactory.

Do not go there. He is a butcher and doesn't even care when he ruins someone's life. You will regret it.
