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.

GET A SECOND OPINION
Goeke comes in, asks me what I want him to do after being diagnosed, insists on cortisone shot (which made it worse to include more pain the following day, worse the second time), suggest eventual shoulder replacement without further evaluation and exploratory surgery. His PA's suggested exploring damage with a scope but he didn't, he never even suggested physical or occupational therapy as his assistants did. He reminded me of Chevy Chase who played a doctor in the move 'Dirty Work' but that's just my opinion. Before anyone starts getting cortisone shots, get second opinions and research it's benefits and also what it could damage. It's been over a day since I saw him and let gave me that shot and not only do I feel no benefit, my whole side feels stiff, burns, and aches as well. These shot were suppose to make me feel better. The opposite seemed to happen instead. Tried to call his offe the next day to no avail. I WOULD NOT recommend this doctor. Thank you,

Thank You Goeke!
Goeke fixed left knee in 2018 and is fixing right knee 2022. He is very matter of fact and uses analogies I can relate. I was beating myself up over messing up right knee and he replied, " Our bodies work, when they don't work as designed, we fix them. You are not crazy, your knee is done! we don't cry over spilled milk, we clean up the mess." sounds silly, but this put me at ease.

Outstanding, excellent surgeon. Very kind and explains what he’s gonna do and answers any and all questions you throw his way. I’ve used him on 2 surgeries and my husband has had him for 2 knee replacements. Can’t say enough great things about Dr Geoke.

Dr. Goeke has been a great doctor. He has been very caring and explains everything in great detail. He has replaced both of my hips. I don’t know what I would have done without his help. I can now walk pain free.

Dr Goeke took wonderful care of my elderly mom last year when she had to have a shoulder replaced. He was so kind and caring, and did such a great job with her that I chose him when I started having shoulder issues myself. He explained what was wrong and what my options were, and he started as conservatively as possible, which I liked, rather than go for surgery right off the bat. We have finally come to that point now and he will be operating on my arm next week. I'm a lot less anxious than I might otherwise be because I know I'm in the best possible hands. Dr Goeke is very, very good at what he does. He's also extremely kind and compassionate. You can tell he realizes that it may be just another day at work for him, but all this is a big, scary (and painful) deal for me. He always answers my questions and doesn't lose patience. He also has a great, dry sense of humor that is fun. He is just a really nice guy and a fantastic doctor. I have recommended him several times, very highly!

Dr Goeke and the PAs are all great. They treat me as a unique patient. I've gone to them with torn rotator cuffs and tendonitis and was successfully treated without surgery. I continue weightlifting and daily routine and I will keep going to them as needed. Highly recommend
