Ira H Kirschenbau, MD

My knee replacement has no pain. I can do exercise. I am very happy with it.

I am very thankful he was there for me in the community. I has severe pain in my knee and he got all the tests quickly. I am feeling better after this.

For three years I was bounced around pain management clinics for my hip pain until someone recommended Dr. Kirschenbaum. I sent to him and after x-rays, he immediately made the diagnosis of hip arthritis. He told me I can go for a hip replacement and it would get rid of my pain. He knows a lot and is caring in the office.

I had a leg injury and was treated at another hospital. My general doctor sent me to this doctor. I kind of waited in the office for a long time to see him but I know I was added onto his schedule. I almost left but glad I stayed. He knew exactly what was wrong and go me going the right way.

I had surgery with another doctor at another hospital and Dr. K was kind enough to see me because I was in pain. He made sure I did not have an infection which was good. He gave me some pills for my inflammation which worked great. I recommend him and his entire clinic.

I went to another bone doctor who told me I needed a knee replacement. Dr. Kirschenbaum went over all my x-rays very carefully showing me why a knee replacement was not going to help with. This was great news!

Now I am on medications and getting an injection and it's working.

I went to Dr. K for a second opinion because another doctor told me I did not need surgery. I thought this was all wrong and Dr. K agreed. He took x-rays of me standing up and showed me how bad my knees were.

He did tell me that the decision to have surgery was all mine and depended on the amount of pain I was having daily and also whether or not I can do what I want to do. Since I can't even walk more than 1 block this was not a hard decision.

He is a nice and warm doctor.

Dr. Kirschenbaum replaced both of my hips. The first in 2013 and the second in 2014. I can;t say enough how great a job he did. I have no pain and I am walking so much.

Dr. Kirschenbaum is a warm, caring doctor. I was sent to him because a lot of other doctors saw me for an arm problem and no one could figure out what was wrong. He get at it and I now know what is going on and getting the right treatment. I recommend him to everyone,

I was walking around with severe hip pain and he told me what I had- bursitis. He treated it and now it is gone. I went to many docs before him and no one could figure it out. Also the staff in the clinic is so helpful.

I had both of my knee replacements done by Dr. K many years ago and just say him for a follow-up appointment. They are doing so great. I have no pain and he told me the x-rays look like the day he put the knee replacements in. I am really grateful that I chose him as my surgeon.

I saw him in a clinic near his hospital. The hospital, I think, runs this clinic in Washington Heights. I had a thumb injury. He knew exactly what I had, even though I found out later he really is a hip and knee expert. Looks like he knows a lot more because he got me right to a hand doctor to fix my problem. Thank you.

Ewcommwnd him to anybody. Excellent care.

I went to this doctor and I had bad knee arthritis. Now I am getting a knee replacement. The clinic was great.

Many years ago, Dr. K did a partial knee replacement on my right knee. That knee is doing great. I just saw him for my left knee. I was really afraid that I was going to k=need a replacement again because even though I did so well I don't like the idea of surgery.

After an x-ray Dr K told me I did not need a knee replacement and I am being treated differently.

I did not need surgery but he spent a lot of time with me telling me what I had and how I can take care if it. Not a doctors do that.

Not many people have rheumatoid arthritis. I do and Dr. K really knew a lot about how different treatments can help me. He treated the arthritis I had in his specialty and sent me to hid hand surgeon for that. I am so glad they have so many =good doctors there.

Dr. Kirschenbaum is very good and easy to talk to.

He did my total knee replacement 11 years ago and I am very happy with it.
