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.

Awesome Doc - changed my life
Dr, Krinski replaced both my knees at same time. Both knees were arthritic, bone on bone, using knee supports, and Ibuprofen, etc, for just regular activities. I am back to an active outdoor life without the pain. He has even worked on my wife and kids knees over the years. My operation has allowed me to continue an even better life and actually drastically improved my mobility since. I could not be more pleased with his work. He has always been my go to orthopedic doctor and he will continue to be as long as he continues with his practice. I trust his judgement and advise.

This Dr. has been such a blessing. A Class Act. Kind, professional, attentive when I ask questions and thorough. His office staff are the BEST. I just love them. Alexa is so sweet. I actually look forward to my appointments because I know I'm in good hands.

I have been with Dr. K since May of 2000. Rt. knee meniscus tear, orthoscopic repair. 2002 left knee meniscus repair, 2006 right knee repair, 2013 right TKR. I trust him with my care and he has proven to me that his patients are important. He is dedicated, smart, funny, caring and a "NO NONSENSE" kind of doctor that is respected in the office, in the hospital and in life. From injections to surgery he is the best. I have referred a few close friends to him. (I try to keep him a secret!) BEST!!

I the last 25 years I have had 17 joint surgeries due to many old an current sport injuries ( these include knees, shoulders, elbows and wrists. I have been very pleased with Dr Krinsky and everything he has done for me. I am walking and still playing some sports. I am able to have fun with my grand kids on their sport court thanks to all my joint surgeries that Dr Krinsky performed-----He has kept me going. Thank you Dr Krinsky.
