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.

Definitely and I have.

He has one of the best bedside manners of any doctor I have been too. Yes sometimes you have to wait passed your appointment time to see him because he takes the time to listen and answer all the questions you may have. When it is your turn he spends just as much time with you.

Total Knee Replacement, post op visit.
My surgery was on February 21, 2025, a little over 6 weeks ago. Everything was explained to me in advance. I was told all I needed to know and prepare for going into this type of surgery. It all went according to plan, Dr. Kubik was pleased with my progress at this follow up visit and thinks that I am doing very well.

Fix me up good as new
Dr Kubik is a Rockstar. He did repair of both shoulders, and I am back in business. I am four years out on my right shoulder surgery and 4 months out on my left. Quick recovery and I am back to 100% on my right shoulder and after 4 months of a partially detached rotator cuff I am about 90%. Any orthorpedic problem Dr. Kubik specializes in I will seek his treatment. He is very thorough, very polite and nice to consult with, and he enjoys explaining the deep details in a way the patient can understand.

I am the Patient
It took 3 years of other doctors telling it was all in my head. I went to go see Dr. Kubik and he listened to my concerns and complaints. He did one test and found out what was wrong less then a month later I was in surgery to get my knee fixed. He is a great doctor! How cares about all his patients!

Awesome, patient surgeon!
Dr. Kubik did my knee replacement in 2016 and was the best thing I could have done. He was patient, always! Made me at ease right away! Explained the entire procedure and put me at ease! Since then I have had some shoulder issues and he is working with me with that. Wouldn't go to anyone else! Allison, hus PA is awesome to. The whole staff is!

Excellent doctor
I had massive rotator cuff tears in both shoulders. Dr. Kubik performed surgery on both shoulders, and both shoulders feel better than they have in 15 years. He is an excellent surgeon with a very affable demeanor. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of surgery.

Listens and includes patient in decision making
Dr. Kubik has done 3 surgeries with my shoulders: 2 clean-ups of bones spurs multiple years ago plus most recently a reverse total shoulder replacement. Excellent surgeon as I was able to return to a more activity life afterwards on all 3, but what I like most is he listens before examing and then presents Pro & Con of his recommendations so I could make an informed decision about potential recommended next step or procedure. Makes you feel part of the decision cycle.
