Love my knee replacement

Dr. K did my knee replacement 3-4 years ago and it is amazing. Just saw him for a follow up and he still is that same caring doc I remember on the last visit. I can do everything I want now with my knee. Still going strong.

A lot of problems solved

I have a lot of problems with my body. I have rheumatoid arthritis and it hurts in my hands and my spine. Even though Dr. Kirschenbaum primarily treats hips and knees he examined all my joints and set me up with other doctors in the office for treatment. It was a pleasure meeting him and glad he put my case together like that

Helped me with the hip

I have a bum hip. I went to a lot of doctors and this is the first one who really explained to me why I had to lose weight before the s=hip surgery. He gave me a slot of advice.

Ten years and going strong

I always love it when I read about the good things other people are saying about Dr. K! I met him almost 10 years ago when he first came to my hospital in the Bronx. He replaced my right knee and has taken care of so many other body parts, I almost can;t count. Glad I met him.

Total trust

I saw Dr. Kirschenbaum for problems with an operation done by someone else. He really explained my situation well and put together a plan that got me on the right track.
