The Knee & Shoulder Institute has gone downhill over the past couple of years. Extremely poor follow-up after MRI took numerous calls to get appt scheduled and when it was finally scheduled for the next Monday I get to the Office and they tell me its the next Monday. The follow-up appt to receive a lubrication shot in my shoulder has no gone into the 5 week waiting and I have call 2 different times and they tell me they are waiting for approve from insurance. So I called the insurance company today and find out they have not requested approval yet. NOT GOOD!!!! Dr. Thomas and Bigler need to take

I brought my son in to see Dr. Carr after a recommendation from an acquaintance. The facility is beautiful and conveniently located. All staff members were warm and friendly. We were brought back on time, my son had his x-rays taken immediately, and we did not have to wait at all to see the doctor. He immediately reviewed the x-rays and was very thorough with his exam and very friendly as well. Outstanding experience. Highly recommend.

Left knee went fine. Right knee not so much. Dr. Thomas refused to look at the MRI images and D.O. Puopolo refused to take a second look at the MRI. Seems like theyre just after your money and I would go somewhere else.

As active duty military for 24 years, I was an avid runner. After retiring and about 8 years later, I began to have serious knee pain and swelling of my entire leg. I went to the VA, but they kept making me wait. After a year of waiting with this excruciating pain I needed medication for, I asked for a referral to a local doctor. Thats how I ended up at the K&S Institute. Within 30 days Dr. Bigler performed a miracle. He cleaned up two massive meniscus tears, slipped knee cap, beginnings of arthritis, cleaned out some bone fragments, and repaired a muscle that had pulled away from the bone.

No, no, and no after todays visit wherein Dr. Thomas was highly condescending, I would not recommend him. Yes, I need surgery for a meniscus tear, however, I am not ready to proceed because of family obligations. I have two kids, I do it alone, so until summer break when I dont have to be on the go constantly, Im waiting. All I needed today was a handicapped application signed, which wouldnt be approved by his office without an appointment, an appointment that I scheduled for 10:45 and exited at noon. Dr. Thomas proceeded to tell me the DMV may deny my application because I have a fixable
