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.

Dr. Shawn Kutnik
Dr. Shawn Kutnik is by far a stellar orthopedic/hand surgeon specialist. He did one of mt CMC joint surgeries and had a terrific experience with quick recovery and low scarring. Returned to see Dr. Kutnik recently for hand tendinosis (have serogenetive TA). I'd seen another provider 1st multiple times. With no relief. I could barely hold my steering wheel. Within 3 days of him injecting my hands. This was months ago and still feeling fantastic!

I worked for a therapy company and he would always see our patients in a timely manner. He is very helpful, knowledgeable and truly cares for his patients. We referred many people to see him and all the patients come back with great reviews! Everytime our office called, their staff was very helpful. I had to see him one time for a rock climbing incident and he was able to treat my injury in the office and I haven't had any problems since. Thank you for all you do!

He was recommended by my therapist for a second opinion when wrist was still hurting. His staff was very nice and he actually examined my hand and talked about options. I eventually needed revision surgery and so far feeling much better. Would recommend his to anyone.

Dr. Kutnik and his staff went above and beyond to make me feel cared for. The staff was always pleasant and Dr. Kutnik actually took the time to sit and listen and was all around very kind. I would highly recommend him! I am feeling great after surgery and couldn't have asked for better results.

If you are looking to be insulted and enjoy a doctor with no bed-side manner, then Shawn Kutnik will make you feel right at home... A second opinion will show you just how little this "expert" knows about practicing medicine... Don't waste your time.

I have only seen him once, so far. He is a workers comp doctor for my employer. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. He was very nice, prompt. He is doing surgery soon on my hands, so I will update my comment then.

I would not see this dr again due to the billing within his office and group and the lack of care to call me back promptly when I called for months with a discrepancy! I ended up seeing a different dr because it was unknown if he took my insurance, the staff assured me if I paid my copay I would not be responsible for other bills. Now a collection agency has my information looking for money I was told I would not have to pay.

I recently injured my elbow pretty badly and was refferred to Dr. Kutnik. I was pretty upset going in bt he was so freindly and took quite a bit of time to explain everything. I ended up having surgery but am feeling so much better. His staff was helpful and easy to reach and Dr Kutnik was great.

When Dt Kutnik was at his former office, I saw him SEVERAL times. I was sent to get a custom brace for my thumb. What I came away with, was a flexible bandage that I could have purchased at my local pharmacy. I was no better after all the visits with him.

The staff is extremely rude and Dr. Kutnik spends an extremely small amount of time explaining everything to the patient. In addition he was over 45min late.
